How do I find Skeletron and where?
Where do I find Skeletron in Terraria? Is there any exact tools I should use?
Best Answer
Skeletron is not "found" as such, but is rather summoned.
From the wiki page:
Skeletron is summoned by speaking to the Old Man at the Dungeon's entrance, at night, who will die and spawn Skeletron when you select the “curse” option. If you speak to the Old Man during the day, he will ask you to return at night. You will only be able to summon Skeletron once per night, as the Old Man will not respawn until day.
Skeletron can be summoned repeatedly this way until it is defeated. Once it is defeated, the Old Man will no longer appear. Skeletron can be re-summoned thereafter once the player acquires the Clothier Voodoo Doll. Equipping the Doll allows the player to kill the Clothier, which summons Skeletron. But this must be done at night.
The Dungeon is located near the far left or far right side of the map - its location will be randomly chosen when the world is created.
As to what you will want to defeat him, here are some options recommended by the wiki strategy guide:
Ranged weapons
- Minishark
- Flamarang
- Space Gun (perhaps with Meteor armour for mana-free usage)
- Demon Bow (or Tendon Bow for Crimson worlds)
Melee weapons
- Fiery Greatsword
- Flails (such as Ball O' Hurt or The Meatball)

Where do you find the Skeletron dungeon in Terraria?
To summon Skeletron, you need to speak to the Old Man standing at the Dungeon's entrance while it is nighttime. You can find the Dungeon's entry on the far right or the left portion of your map.What time does Skeletron spawn?
You should kill the Clothier at night after 7:30 PM and you must equip the Clothier Voodoo Doll as an accessory. Skeletron only spawns during the night. If he's not defeated before daylight, he will behave like a Dungeon Guardian, but still drop loot if defeated this way.Does Skeletron spawn naturally?
Skeletron Prime can be summoned manually using a Mechanical Skull at night (7:30 PM to 4:30 AM). It also has a 1/10 (10%) chance to spawn naturally at dusk once a Demon or Crimson Altar has been destroyed, as long as it has not yet been defeated at least once in the current world.Terraria: How to find and summon Skeletron!!!

Answer 3
Skeletron is actually the old man at the dungeon and if you pick 'curse' it will do a summoning sequence where it looked like the old man was the cage and you helped him escaped.
