Necro armor is a pre-Hardmode, post-Skeletron ranged armor set consisting of the Necro Helmet, Necro Breastplate, and Necro Greaves. Crafting a full set requires a total of 135 Cobwebs and 150 Bones.

The Ancient Necro Helmet is dropped from Angry Bones and Dark Casters in the Dungeon, at a 1/450 (0.22%) chance. It is functionally identical to and interchangeable with the Necro Helmet.

Notes

After-image shown when a full set of Necro armor is equipped.
  • In a drunk world(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), this armor set is obtainable before defeating Skeletron, as Dungeon enemies can spawn prior to defeating the boss.
  • The Ancient Necro Helmet has the same sprite as the Necro Helmet had before 1.0.3, thus the phrase Ancient in it.

Trivia

  • The prefix necro- comes from the Ancient Greek word νεκρός (nekrós, "dead").
