Blue Cultist Archer

The Blue Cultist Archer is an Hardmode enemy that will spawn in twos along with 2 Lunatic Devotes and a Mysterious Tablet at the entrance of the Dungeon after Golem has been defeated.

Whenever one of the 4 cultists is hit, either by the player or by one of their Minions, the Blue Cultist Archer will start shooting Wooden Arrows at the player, dealing little damage. They will stand still as long as they can see the character, and will start moving in their direction as soon as they get out of sight. The archers will remain aggressive until they are killed or until they respawn. Also, even though minions will damage the cultists on contact, they will not directly try to hit them while they're still in their passive state.

Killing both the Archers and the Devotes will cause the Lunatic Cultist to spawn. For that reason, even though the Archers alone are quite weak, they should still be considered as a threat.

The Cultist Archers should respawn naturally after one in-game day after the player loses against the Lunatic Cultist, or either wins or loses against the Moon Lord. If this isn't the case, beating Golem again should always cause them to respawn. However, modifying the spawning area, notably by removing the roof or the floor, may cause them to never spawn again in a given world, even after the area is rebuilt. Because of this, players should be cautious when altering the entrance of their Dungeon.

Trivia

 * There is a 1/1000 chance that a White Cultist Archer will spawn instead of a blue one.
