The Calming Potion is a buff potion which grants the Calm buff when consumed. The buff reduces the enemy spawn rate by 39%, and the maximum number of enemies on-screen is reduced by 40%. This lasts for 12 minutes, but can be canceled at any time by right-clicking the icon (Desktop version), by selecting the icon using Cycle Next/Previous Buff and then pressing Remove Buff (Console version), or by double-tapping the buff icon (Mobile version).

In addition to being crafted, Calming Potions can be found in Pots and Crates.

Notes

Tips

  • If the player wants to loot the Chests in the Dungeon and already has a sufficient number of Golden Keys, using this potion before entering may be a good idea.
  • While not directly helpful against bosses themselves, it can be useful to use against some like the Queen Bee or the Wall of Flesh whose biomes typically have numerous enemy spawns which could make the fight harder, or when mining Meteorite to curb Meteor Head spawns.
