The Elf Archer is a Hardmode, post-Plantera enemy that spawns during the Frost Moon event, starting in wave 2. It is very similar to the Pirate Crossbower and Skeleton Archer, shooting Flaming Arrows which inflict the On Fire! debuff.

Defeating an Elf Archer adds 3 points (6 points) during the Frost Moon.

Trivia

• The Bestiary entry for the Elf Archer: "These aren't your typical elven archers. Tinkering all year long, they are excited to gift you with the hottest new arrows this season."
