Stats by game mode
| Classic | Expert | Master | Legendary (For the Worthy) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Life | 40 | 80 | 120 | 160 |
| Attack | 22 | 44 | 66 | 117 |
| Defense | 8 | 8 | 8 | 8 |

The last column is Master mode in a For the Worthy world. Its numbers were measured in the game.
For one player, before Hardmode. Expert and Master scale life, attack, knockback and coins by the game's multipliers.
Coins: each kill rolls from 80% to 175% of this value. Rarer extra rolls can add more.
In a Hardmode world
In Expert and Master, Hardmode makes weak enemies stronger: when attack plus defense plus a quarter of life is under 80 (100 after Plantera), the game scales them up.
