Diving Gear

The Diving Gear is a new accessory item from 1.1 update. It is made from the Flippers and Diving Helmet, making the user able to swim and breathe underwater for an extended amount of time. Unlike the otherwise superior Neptune's Shell, the Diving Gear also worin lava when used together with an Obsidian Skin Potion. This potentially makes it very useful for mining Hellstone. As of 1.2 you do not drown in lava.
