The Possessed Armor is a Hardmode enemy which spawns on the surface at night, and underground at any time. It walks quickly and casts a motion blur similar to that of the Shadow armor. On the  Console version,  Old-gen console version, and 3DS version, it can always open doors; on the  Desktop version and  Mobile version, it can only do so during a Blood Moon.

Tips

• Using weapons with a high rate of fire can slow down the Possessed Armor's movement speed significantly.

Trivia

• Its sprite looks similar to the Ancient Cobalt armor sprite, except with the Iron armor helmet.
• It seems to be the Hardmode equivalent to the Zombie enemy, with its high spawn rates during night and basic Fighter AI.

• The Bestiary entry for the Possessed Armor: "Whatever possessed this suit of armor to suddenly walk about and start killing everyone? It lacks a corporeal body."
