The Dunerider Boots are an accessory. It can be found in Sandstone Chests in the top 4/7ths of the Underground Desert and in Oasis Crates and Mirage Crates obtained from fishing in the Oasis.

They grant the following effects while equipped:

  • The ability to sprint, allowing the player to reach maximum running speed faster. The player will leave behind a visual trail of sand clouds as they sprint.
  • Increased maximum movement speed to 31 mph (22.73 tiles/second).
  • While moving on Sand, Sandstone, or Hardened Sand:
    • +15% movement speed (to 54 mph (39.6 tiles/second))
    • +75% acceleration and deceleration (from 0.3 tiles/second² to 0.525 tiles/second² and from 0.75 tiles/second² to 1.3125 tiles/second², respectively)

Notes

Tips

  • The significant movement speed bonus on sand is unique to the Dunerider Boots. Combining them with Rocket Boots to craft the Spectre Boots will remove it, hence it may be better to use another type of boots to craft the Spectre Boots.
  • Using Dunerider Boots alongside Sand, Sandstone, or Hardened Sand runways could be considered a pre-Hardmode alternative to Asphalt.

Trivia

  • The Dunerider Boots' tooltip is a reference to the science fiction media franchise Dune. The deadly sandworms in Dune are attracted to rhythmic vibrations in the sand, which indicate the movement of prey. To escape the notice of the sandworms, a traveler in the desert must learn to "walk without rhythm" in a manner that simulates the natural sounds of the desert.
