Tips

• It is possible to obtain Cursed Flames in a world which was generated with Crimson by creating an artificial Underground Corruption. To do so, one can buy Corrupt Seeds from the Dryad during Hardmode while in a Graveyard, and use them to seed the Underground Corruption biome.
  • Alternatively, one might simply bring the material from another world which has Corruption.

Trivia

• The Cursed Flame may be based on Greek fire, an incendiary weapon used by the Byzantine Empire that was able to burn almost anywhere and was used in naval warfare.
  • It also may be based on the cursed green flames from "The Festival", a short story by H. P. Lovecraft.
• Spazmatism can shoot Cursed Flame, but it will not drop Cursed Flame items.
• The Cursed Flare is the only item made from Cursed Flame that does not have an Ichor variant.
