The Dangersense Potion is a buff potion which grants the Dangersense buff when consumed. The buff reveals hazardous traps, blocks, and objects that can potentially harm or impede the player by highlighting them in red, even in complete darkness. This lasts for 10 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, Dangersense Potions can be found in Pots, Chests, and crates.

List of hazards

The Dangersense buff highlights the blocks and objects listed below.[1] Some of these will not be highlighted if the player affected by the buff has equipment that prevents harm from them.

Notes

Tips

  • The ability to locate Cobwebs makes finding Spider Nests much easier.
    • In addition to Spider Nests, Dangersense Potions can also be used to find caverns by following patches of Cobweb.
  • The ability to see traps, including pressure plates, makes traversing the Dungeon and Jungle Temple much easier.
  • Dangersense Potions make it much easier to also collect traps for the player's own purposes, such as Jungle Temple traps, or Geyser in caverns.
  • Dangersense Potions can highlight Cracked Dungeon Bricks in the Dungeon, making finding hidden passages trivial.
  • When using a boss arena with traps such as Boulders, this potion can be useful for dodging them while still being able to concentrate on the fight.

Trivia

  • The Dangersense Potion is named TrapsightPotion internally.
