Illuminating buried ore veins and sunken treasure chests
Spelunker Potion provides the Spelunker buff for 5 minutes, causing valuable treasures within screen range to glow with a brilliant golden shimmer. The illumination reveals buried metal ores, gemstone clusters, life crystals, pots, and treasure chests directly through solid stone walls, drastically reducing excavation time during underground mining expeditions.
Precious metal brewing for efficient cavern spelunking
Crafted at an Alchemy Table or placed Bottle using Bottled Water, Blinkroot, Moonglow, and either Gold Ore or Platinum Ore, the potion pays for its mineral ingredient quickly. Identifying isolated ore pockets and heart containers without blind tunneling makes it a foundational tool for both early-game preparation and early Hardmode ore rushes.
