Notes[]

  • Cobwebs will be marked with red sparkle particles instead of being highlighted like other hazards.

Tips[]

  • The ability to locate Cobwebs makes finding Spider Caves much easier.
  • In addition to Spider Caves, Dangersense Potions can also be used to find caverns by following patches of cobweb.
  • The ability to see traps, including pressure plates, makes traversing the Dungeon and Jungle Temple much easier.
  • Dangersense Potions make it much easier to also collect traps for your own purposes, such as Jungle Temple traps, or Geyser in caverns.
  • When using a boss arena with traps such as boulders, this potion can be useful for dodging them while still being able to concentrate on the fight.

Trivia[]

  • The Dangersense Potion is named TrapsightPotion internally.
