Will cavalry become obsolete in hardmode?

[FinKone]

Having players on horse back in hard core is very much needed.  The only thing you guys have to worry about is getting shot by rangers - they are just all around nasty.  The axes that the other bots throw ain't that bad to deal with if ya' got some riding skill.  Every now and again though they do throw that one that ya' just can't get away from...

So in Short - No.  I'm not cav, but am sure happy when a skilled cav player shows up.
