The difficulty of your character does not affect items or anything, just how your deaths will play out. Also, you are confusing Hard Mode with Hardcore Mode. Wings are only obtainable in Hard mode, but that's it. Hardmode is more a state of the world, rather than difficulty. You can get every items in any difficulty, it will only affect how you play the game.
