The Black Spot

The Black Spot is a mount-summon item dropped by the Flying Dutchman in Master mode with a 1/4 (25%) chance. It summons a rideable Flying Dutchman which can fly infinitely at very high speed.

The Flying Dutchman Mount has a max horizontal flight speed of 82mph, a diagonal speed of 91 and a vertical speed of 41 mph. Upon achieving max speed, a ring of gold particles appear around the player and trail behind the mount.

The Flying Dutchman Mount deals damage upon ramming enemies at after the golden ring of particles appear, with increased damage depending on current speed.

Tips

 * The Flying Dutchman Mount matches Cute Fishron's underwater speed bonus, but maintains its speed whether in air or water, making it the fastest mount in the game. However, its acceleration, turning, and stopping rates are relatively slow, making it less agile than other flying mounts. The acceleration also makes its ramming capabilities difficult to utilize.

Trivia

 * The item’s tooltip, which mentions ‘mutiny’, may be a nod to how you have essentially hijacked the ship from Pirate Invasion enemies.
 * The buff tooltip is a reference to a line from the movie Captain Philips, in which a shipping liner is hijacked by pirates.
 * The item's name is a reference to Treasure Island, where pieces of paper marked with a black spot play a central role.
