Martian Drone

The Martian Drone is a Hardmode, post-Golem flying enemy that spawns during the Martian Madness event. Upon spawning, it flies diagonally up from a bottom corner of the screen, moving through blocks. If not destroyed, it stops once it reaches a point just above the player, then spins and explodes into spark particles that fall and linger on the ground, which will damage players or NPCs that touch them.

Tips

 * If the player is inside a tunnel, the drone will stop pursuing and hovering on the player's head as long as the player stays in tunnel. The same strategy applies to dealing with Corites.

Trivia

 * This enemy mostly resembles the General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper, a drone used primarily by the United States Air Force.
