Do you have to fight Skeletron at night?

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. This is a difficult boss, do not try to fight him unless you have lots of potions, good pre-Hardmode gear and/or throwing weapons.

When should you fight Skeletron?

Although you can fight him at any time, it's best to wait until you have at least Meteor Armor, or even Molten Armor. We also strongly suggest you use a ranged weapon to deal with him, such as the Minishark, or a spell like the Demon Scythe. The fight itself shouldn't be tough so long as you prepared the battle arena.
