Betsy's Wings

Tier 3 Old One's Army acquisition and hovering mechanic

Dropped by Betsy with a 25% drop rate during the final wave of the Tier 3 Old One's Army event after defeating Golem. Betsy's Wings feature a specialized hovering property activated by holding or toggling the Down key during flight. This mechanism locks vertical altitude while propelling the character horizontally at a rapid 60 mph, allowing swift lateral repositioning without descending toward hostile ground hazards, spiked pits, or lava pools.

Horizontal evasion and end-game boss positioning

The 250% horizontal acceleration multiplier while hovering allows players to outrun high-velocity projectile spreads during the Moon Lord encounter or the Empress of Light trial. Combining Betsy's Wings with the Soaring Insignia in Expert mode provides endless hovering capability across vast sky arenas. Pairing them with Master Ninja Gear grants instant directional momentum resets to escape dangerous attack patterns, while strafing sideways lets ranged fighters fire continuously without losing altitude.

Trivia

• Betsy's Wings possess the fastest horizontal hover acceleration among all event wings.
• Hovering can be deactivated at any moment by tapping the Up direction key.
