Tips[]

  • It is almost necessary when traversing The Underworld, as knockback from enemies and damage from Hellstone and Hellstone Brick are two of the major threats the player will have to deal with.
  • The Obsidian Shield can synergize with the Brand of the Inferno to block attacks, granting the Striking Moment buff.

History[]

  • Console 1.06: Inventory sprite updated to match Desktop 1.2.3.
