The Inferno Potion damaging Skeletons through blocks.

The Inferno Potion is a buff potion that grants the Inferno buff when consumed. The buff casts a spinning ring of fire around the player that deals 20 damage per second and inflicts the Hellfire debuff for 2 seconds to all enemies inside of it while also giving off light. Critters and other passive NPCs are unaffected. This lasts for 4 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).

Notes

Tips

  • While the ring deals minimal damage to most Hardmode enemies, it is very useful against enemies that throw destructible projectiles, as these are easily destroyed by the ring. Examples include Duke Fishron with his Detonating Bubbles and Plantera with her Spores.

Trivia

  • If a player dies from the Inferno buff's ring of fire while PvP is active, the following unique death message will be displayed: "<Player name> was consumed by the inferno."
