Behavior
Skeleton horsemen have high hit points and require constant damage to be defeated. They are most dangerous in an open area, where they commonly gallop away from melee reach.

Whenever a hero approaches a newly-spawned skeleton horseman, it transforms into four skeleton horsemen that charge at the hero.

They sometimes shoot at the player with a Longbow, dealing extreme damage.
