The Elf Archer is a Hardmode, post-Plantera enemy that begins to spawn during wave 2 of the Frost Moon event. She is very similar to the Pirate Crossbower, Goblin Archer, and Skeleton Archer, shooting Flaming Arrows which inflict the On Fire! debuff for 7 / 14 / 17.5 seconds.

Defeating an Elf Archer during the Frost Moon event will add 3 / 6 / 7.5 points to the final score.^[3]
