The Undead Viking is a common, pre-Hardmode enemy found in the Ice biome. It behaves the same as the Skeleton, except it spawns more frequently and jumps higher. They have a 2% chance to drop the Viking Helmet. They are able to open doors.

Notes[]

• The Armored Viking will decrease the Undead Viking spawn rate once in Hardmode. This can make the Viking Helmet much rarer.

Trivia[]

The Bestiary entry for the Undead Viking: "Long before there were pirates, stories tell of powerful vikings who raged the seas. Their remains roam the icy caverns below."
