Trident-wielding fiends of the underworld

Red Devils are formidable winged demons that rule the Underworld in Hardmode, representing a severe escalation over common demons. Flapping with dark crimson wings across lava caverns, they track players with ruthless efficiency. They possess 600 health and 40 defense, capable of enduring heavy projectile fire while circling through ash vaults.

Dodging piercing tridents and gathering fire feathers

Rather than relying on melee contact, Red Devils hurl triplets of glowing Unholy Tridents dealing 50 damage in Classic and 100 in Expert, capable of obliterating player health in seconds. Eliminating them yields the Fire Feather at a 2% rate for crafting Flame Wings, alongside the Hotdog at a 3.33% rate for delicious dining.

Trivia

  • The Unholy Trident projectiles fired by Red Devils can pierce through multiple player hits.
  • Red Devils boast some of the highest projectile damage among non-boss enemies in early Hardmode.
