Hoplite

The Hoplite is a pre-hardmode enemy that spawns in the Marble mini-biome. It fires piercing javelins at the player, which can deal a lot of damage. In early game, Hoplites can be extremely dangerous, especially in Expert Mode with its projectiles dealing twice their base damage. You should definitely avoid him if you have weak armor.

Trivia

 * Hoplites were ancient Greek soldiers who typically carried spears and shields. This might be the reason why hoplites are referred to in the game files as Greek Skeleton.
