Traveling quickly with little delay is what most players in Terraria wish. There are countless options, from Boots that charge your speed to different Wings that can bring you to Space. After all, it’s limitless if the spirit of adventure powers you as a player. Or is it?

Truthful answer: there is. Wings can’t cover an entire small Terraria map. All Boots also stop once the running momentum is halted by an obstacle (blocks usually). Thankfully, there’s a go-to solution, and we’re here to share a little secret.

Introducing the Soaring Insignia – a unique accessory for your travels. In this guide, you’ll know exactly how the item works and how to acquire one to your advantage!

Soaring Insignia – Overview

Little accessories function well in pre-Hardmode, but in Hardmode, there’s the Soaring Insignia. The item is a game-changer for good reasons:

Offers +7.5% movement speed
Acceleration increased by 75% Infinite flight time
Finalizes the jump speed by 1.8
Better flight ascend speed for Wings or Rocket Boots
Quicker way to reach the maximum movement speed
Smoother way of changing directions

The Soaring Insignia’s function sounds promising. However, it’s impossible to fly with the accessory itself. Note: It makes the flight duration of Wings or Boots infinite, not act as one.

Moreover, the bonus doesn’t apply to the following mounts:

Bee
Book
Pigron
Rudolph
Winged Slime

However, the Flying Carpet will still benefit from all perks except infinite flight. Also, fall damage is still possible while using Rocket Boots, so ride with care!

For Jetpack users, it’s good news that its low flight time is totally negated. But in general, it’s best to pair the Soaring Insignia with any Hovers. You can still do it with Wings if you want, though.

How to Get the Soaring Insignia?

Getting this accessory is possible by defeating the Empress of Light. Afterward, a Treasure Bag will appear (at a 100% rate applicable for Expert and Master Mode).

When consuming any potion in Terraria, there’ll always be a cooldown. Obviously, this mechanic is made for balancing purposes to avoid abuse. After all, you wouldn’t want another player camping and killing you while they constantly regenerate their health.

If it’s the single-player mode, you’ll need potions constantly – whether facing the Moon Lord or Empress of Light or traveling in the dark caverns. But with the said gameplay mechanic, you can’t spam them even if you have a full stack.

Removing the entire cooldown duration is impossible, but lessening it is possible. That item is the Philosopher’s Stone, and we’ll help you find one. More importantly, you’ll know how it works in the first place.

Philosopher’s Stone – Overview

The Philosopher’s Stone is a Hardmode accessory that cuts the duration of Potion Sickness buffs by 25%. Since the Potion Sickness debuff has one minute cooldown, with the Philosopher’s Stone equipped, you’ll only have to wait 45 seconds. The accessory is beneficial to buy less time when consuming essential potions.

It’s noteworthy that the game updates the cooldown waiting time whenever the Philosopher’s Stone is equipped or unequipped. For example, if five seconds are left, and you’ve unequipped the accessory, the waiting time will be longer and vice versa.

How to Get a Philosopher’s Stone?

The only way to get this accessory is by slaying Mimics. They can be player-spawned, but they’ll only drop Banners. However, if you find one in the wild (disguised as chests), you might get the Philosopher’s Stone.

Item Upgrade

Combining the Philosopher’s Stone (1) and Band of Regeneration (1) at the Tinkerer’s Workshop will result in Charm of Myths. The new accessory offers 0.5 health regeneration per second and reduces the Potion Sickness debuff by 25%.
