Goblins

Goblins are a type of enemy that appear in Terraria. There are 7 varieties of Goblin, 6 of which spawn during a Goblin Army. With the exception of the Goblin Sorcerer, who follows the Caster AI, they follow the Fighter AI style. The Goblin Archer and Goblin Summoner also follow the Fighter AI, yet also have ranged capabilities and the ability to summon Shadowflame Apparations respectively.

Variants
There are 7 varieties of Goblin enemies:


 * Goblin Scout - These goblins spawn on the outskirts of the world, and drop Tattered Cloth, which can be used to craft a Goblin Battle Standard and summon a Goblin Army. This is the only relation they have to a Goblin Army, for they don't spawn during the event.


 * Goblin Peon - Smallest and weakest of the Goblin Army units. They can break down doors.


 * Goblin Thief - Slightly stronger than Peons. Move quickly and break down doors more rapidly as well.


 * Goblin Warrior - The strongest variety of Goblin, with far more health and defense than the others.


 * Goblin Archer - Just as powerful as Goblin Thieves, except they attack from a distance with arrows.


 * Goblin Sorcerer - Caster type enemy which attacks with Chaos Balls and teleports. Its attacks can pass through walls.


 * Goblin Summoner - A powerful Goblin enemy that summons Shadowflame Apparations and Chaos Balls, and will occasionally fly towards the player. Only appears during Hardmode.
