Shine Potion

The Shine Potion is a buff potion which buffs the player with Shine. The buff makes the player glow for 5 minutes, which is useful for exploring caves. The buff lasts for 5 minutes, but can be cancelled at any time by right-clicking the icon.

It loses some of its usefulness when you obtain the Orb of Light or a Mining Helmet, as the materials needed to make the potion could be used for more useful potions. However, unlike the Orb of Light, the light source comes from the player, which will not fall behind, and unlike the Mining Helmet, you can wear a helmet with more defense. The light source emitted is also much brighter and the range further than the other two, making it slightly more useful.
