Red's Wings

Red's Wings are wings available only to Redigit, the main developer of Terraria. The only way for a player to obtain this item is by using an external world editing program, a client mod, or an external server tool. Referencing its unattainability, the item's tooltip reads: "You shouldn't have this".

Prior to update 1.2.0.2 Red's Wings allowed unlimited flight and very fast air speed. A player could hover by holding the down button and space bar, or boost upward by holding the up button and space bar, similar to a Jetpack. A player can also noclip by holding the up button, down button, and space bar moving with the left and right button. Red's Wings also grants the benefits of Lightning Boots, except the small cloud particles appear with a dark blue color instead of white.

After update 1.2.0.2, when equipped to anyone other than a developer, it inflicts the Blackout, Burning, Cursed, Confused, Slow, and Weak debuffs, as well as reducing the player's armor to -1000 and reducing movement to 1% while causing quick, intermittent ticks of 5 damage until either the player dies, or the item is unequipped. The only way to bypass this is by patching the game.

Trivia

 * Redigit, or "Red", is the lead developer for Terraria.
 * Red's Wings are one of Red's items. Other items also include: Red's Helmet, Red's Breastplate, and Red's Leggings.
 * Red's Wings are affected by dye on your breastplate, thus, painting it with Black Dye would turn the wings all black, for example. (Note: In Terraria 1.3, you can dye wings separately, so this no longer applies.)
