Hermes Boots

Hermes Boots is an accessory that can be found as loot from underground chests.

These boots increase the maximum running speed of the wearer. However, the acceleration to reach the new max speed when running is slow, taking 2 seconds to reach top speed from a standing position. Movement speed of the player is conserved; jumping while running will not interrupt the forward movement of the player. The top speed from Hermes Boots can be reached quickly with the use of the Grappling Hook or the Ivy Whip. Simply grapple the ground before you (around 5-15 blocks) and then jump as you are getting pulled forward. Hermes Boots do not stack with the set bonus of Necro Armor and equipping the armor will have no additional speed benefits over what the boots already provide. If used along with a Cobalt Shield you will not lose the speed boost after getting hit by an enemy.
