Stats by game mode

	Classic	Expert	Master	Legendary (For the Worthy)
Life	26	52	78	104
Attack	40	80	120	213
Defense	6	6	6	6
Knockback Taken	40% (Med)	36% (Low)	32% (Low)	32% (Low)
Coins	80	2	2	2 80

The last column is Master mode in a world made with the For the Worthy seed. Its numbers were measured in the game, not computed here.

For one player in a world before Hardmode. Expert and Master scale life, attack, knockback and coins by the game's own multipliers.

Coins: each kill rolls the coins from 80% to 175% of this value, then rarer extra rolls can add more.

In a Hardmode world

On Expert and Master, a Hardmode world raises weak enemies: when attack plus defense plus a quarter of life is under 80 (100 after Plantera), the game multiplies them up.
