Sprinting accessories

Sprinting accessories are accessories which allow the player to gain a speed boost after running for a certain distance continuously. The player's speed will continue increasing until maximum speed is attained. Being in the air while running will not cancel the speed boost as long as the player runs in one direction, but it will not continue to build unless the player is on the ground or using a flight accessory which increases the player's speed while in the air. Grappling hooks and other items can be used to jump start this sprint effect.

Unless the Cobalt Shield is equipped (or another item that cancels knockback), hitting an enemy will interrupt the speed boost. However, using an enemy's knockback to kickstart the sprint is an impractical but effective method, particularly with a Panic Necklace.

These are the items which will provide this effect:

Notes

• The sprinting effect is not necessarily a speed bonus, but rather it sets the user's speed to a certain amount which may be affected by items that affect the speed stat directly. This is noticeable when moving quickly on the ground after grappling or using the Panic Necklace, as both provide the same amount of speed whether the player has a sprinting accessory equipped or not.
