Soul of Night

Soul of Night is a Hardmode crafting material dropped by all enemies killed in the Underground Corruption or Underground Crimson, with a 20% chance. This includes stray enemies not native to the biome, such as Goblins or even monsters of "evil" biomes like The Underworld. Crafting all items, excluding the Boss-summoning items, requires 87 Souls of Night. One of each Boss-summoning item requires an additional 12 Souls of Night, for a total of 99. The fastest ways to farm these is to summon the Eater of World at a sufficient depth, as each of his segments counts as a monster - Provided you have enough power to handle the situation, considering he is reinforced by regular spawns in the underground. Immunity to knockback goes a long way.
