Neptune's Shell

Neptune's Shell is a Hardmode accessory that aids performance underwater (and in other liquids) by granting indefinite breathing time underwater, swimming via the key, and eliminating the slow movement speed usually caused by water. Entering water with this accessory equipped transforms the player into  Merfolk  form. While in this form, the breath meter will not display (nor will it decrease), therefore effectively preventing drowning.


 * On the, Neptune's Shell can only be obtained as a drop. It has a /  chance to be dropped by a Creature from the Deep during a Solar Eclipse event.
 * On the, Neptune's Shell can only be obtained through crafting.

Neptune's Shell can be considered an upgrade from the Diving Gear in most respects, but lacks the extra mobility on ice of the Arctic Diving Gear and the extra lighting underwater of the Jellyfish Necklace.

Tips

 * Half of the ingredients can be obtained pre-Hardmode, so it pays to collect them as early as possible.
 * An easier/faster way to get the Neptune's Shell is by placing a Water Candle and/or consuming the Battle Potion because the Solar Eclipse does not have a set spawn rate.

Trivia

 * The name of the item refers to, Roman god of the sea.
 * The player in merfolk form resembles the Zombie Merman and Icy Merman enemies.
