Wings are Hardmode accessories that allow the player to fly temporarily by pressing and holding the ↷ Jump key. They also provide immunity from fall damage (except when the player is Stoned), rendering the Lucky Horseshoe etc. unnecessary. By continuing to hold the ↷ Jump key after flight time has been exhausted, the player is able to glide. Gliding will slow the fall speed. Gliding fall speed can be accelerated by holding the ▼ Down key in addition.
Equipping Wings generally replaces jumps entirely with flight, rather than requiring a double-jump to activate. Flight is much more controlled with Wings than with Rocket Boots or Spectre Boots alone, and allow for much greater flight range. Flight time is reset when the player stands on blocks, or grabs a block with Grappling Hooks or the Climbing Claws.
There are currently 37 total types of Wings across all platforms. There are 36 wings available on the Template:Desktop icon Desktop version, 19 on the Template:Console icon Console version, and 18 on the Template:Mobile icon Mobile version. Flight time and speed vary by type.
Types
- See Guide:Jump Height Comparison for the flight heights achievable with Wings stacked with other equipment.
Most craftable Wings are crafted at a Mythril Anvil or an Orichalcum Anvil. The Solar Wings, Vortex Booster, Nebula Mantle, and Stardust Wings are crafted at the Ancient Manipulator.
All developer wings (with the exception of Cenx's wings) have a 1:240 chance to drop from Hardmode Treasure Bags (Cenx's wings have a 1:120 drop chance).

Notes
Stacked Accessories | Boost | |
---|---|---|
All bottle accessories | no boost | |
|
All balloon accessories. | +30% ascent speed |
|

- Wings will still work under Water.
- Multiple Wings will not stack flight ability. Only those in the lowest accessory slot will function.
- Some jump-boosting accessories do stack with Wings to boost flight (see chart to the right).
- Wings are always visible when equipped, except when using other equipment that adds graphics to the player's back, like the Leaf Blower or Turtle Scale Mail. They fold into a low-profile image when not in flight.
- When one Wing type is placed in a vanity (social) slot and the other in an accessory slot, the full animation of the vanity Wings are shown, along with any lighting and particle effects. Flight speed and other functional characteristics follow those in the accessory slot.
Tips
- An Ice Rod can be used to lay blocks of ice to land in mid air, making it possible to remain in the air almost indefinitely.
- The slow-fall effect of Featherfall Potion or an Umbrella will stack with Wing glide, allowing for very long glides after flight time has been exhausted.
- By using the Bundle of Balloons, Frog Leg, Fishron Wings, Frostspark Boots, Flying Carpet, and Featherfall Potion, the player can attain a total maximum of ~1400 tiles of flight distance.
- The Leaf Wings can actually be obtained very early in hard mode, allowing earlier wings to be skipped over to save time and resources. However, they have a very high reforge cost compared to other wings.
- The Frozen Wings can be obtained for a little more work than the Leaf Wings while retaining the normal reforging costs shared by most other wings.
Trivia
- Most Wing types make the same sound when flapping, with some exceptions marked above.
- Some Mounts also grant flight ability, some with infinite flight time (all Wings provide only temporary flight).
- You need 300 (320 on Console) Souls of Flight to obtain all craftable Wings, and 2 40 (1 80 on Console) to buy the purchased Wings.
