Goblin Warlock

The Goblin Summoner is an enemy that can spawn when a Goblin Invasion occurs during Hardmode. It summons Shadowflame Apparations to attack the player. It has a chance to drop weapons which are themed after Shadowflame, all of which accordingly inflict the Shadowflame debuff.

Because of its high stats, uncommon appearance and relatively high difficulty compared to other goblins, it is often considered a mini-boss.

Trivia

 * Goblin Summoners appear to be the only goblin enemy depicted as female.
 * Despite dropping various Shadowflame weapons, Goblin Summoners are never seen to use any of them in combat, not even the Shadowflame Hex Doll shown in their sprite.
