Obviously you can't see how these are still helpful. Mining Wise, if you need to get up, this + an Ivy/Grappling Hook can get you to your destination very quickly.

For example: You're in the underworld, and you have no Gravitation, Obsidian Skin, or Water Walking Potions. You see a lake of lava you can't cross. If you have Rocket Boots + One of the hooks, you fly up, get the hook to touch the ash ceiling, and before you know it, you'll cross the lake.

This is still an exceptional item, and beats Gravitation Potions in the Underworld (Gravitation is harder to control.)
