Boosting arrow velocity and bow damage output
Created at an alchemy station using Bottled Water, a Daybloom, and a Lens, the Archery Potion provides an 8-minute combat buff. In version 1.4.5, it increases bow damage by 10% and boosts arrow flight velocity by 20%, significantly improving accuracy against distant or fast-moving targets.
Enhancing ballistic trajectories against airborne bosses
The 20% arrow velocity increase flattens projectile drop, allowing archers to strike evasive targets like the Eye of Cthulhu or aerial Wyverns with less vertical compensation. Because Lenses drop regularly from nocturnal Demon Eyes and Daybloom grows abundantly across surface grass, crafting batches of this brew requires minimal preparation before pre-Hardmode boss attempts.
Trivia
- In versions prior to 1.4.4, the potion granted a 20% damage boost before being adjusted to its current 10% damage bonus.
