The Hell Armored Bones is a Hardmode, post-Plantera enemy that spawn in the Dungeon after Plantera is defeated. Similar to Angry Bones, they come in multiple varieties and follow the Fighter AI. Hell Armored Bones are visible in darkness but do not actually emit light, except for a faint glow when immersed in water. They also inflict the On Fire! debuff for 10 / 20 / 25 seconds.

Notes

• Despite being immune to the On Fire! debuff, they still take damage from lava.
• In Don't dig up(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) and Get fixed boi(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) worlds, Hell Armored Bones will drop the Katana instead of the Keybrand.
• For the banner the kill counts of all variants are added up.

Trivia

• The Bestiary entry for the Hell Armored Bones: "The fiery glow of the Molten Legion is unmistakable. With their red-hot armaments in hand, they blaze a trail through all those in their way."
