Playing through Terraria without Wings is a nightmare. Even if you skated past the Eye of Cthulhu without much challenge, escaping the Wall of Flesh’s pursuit can be a death sentence without a means to glide and fly away from the encroaching threat. Terraria can bea lot of silly fun, but very intense in other places too.
10 Games To Play If You Love Stardew Valley
Stardew’s nearly a decade old; it might be time for something new…
Whether you want to optimize your summoner’s dodging ability or embrace your inner bird, this list covers the best wings found throughout Terraria. The options boasting superior capabilities in speed, height, and time airborne. As a bonus, it will also detail how to complete some of the more complicated boss summons necessary to obtain rarer wings, like the Festive Wings from the Everscream or the Empress Wings from the Empress of Light.
1Fledgling Wings
A Useful, If Limited, Introduction To Terraria’s Wings
Coming in last are the Fledgling Wings, the only pair of wings found before Hardmode. Despite their meager speed and time airborne,Fledgling Wings are a useful accessory against Skeletron and for navigating Hell’s lava-infested regions. Though they don’t last long, these wings pair excellently with a grappling hook and platform arena to navigate chasms and outmaneuver flying foes.
Stardew Valley: How to Get All Dwarf Scrolls
In order to communicate with Dwarf in Stardew Valley, you need to unlock the ability to understand the dwarven language.
You can find the wings in chests on the floating islands and in crates found from fishing at an elevation of at least 250 (small world), 450 (medium world), or 650 (large world) blocks in the sky.
2Harpy Wings
Embrace Hardmode, Become Bird
One of the first sets of wings available after the transition to Hardmode, Harpy Wings are an excellent set for challenging some of the first mechanical bosses and strengthened mobs. Though later Hardmode wings quickly outclass them, Harpy Wings offer a more forgiving entry to the Hallow and Crimson/Corruption-infested worlds (the universe can be as imposing as that of Hollow Knight in some places), as well as allowing easier exploration of vast, lava-infested caverns.
You can obtain the Harpy Wings after gathering 20 Souls of Flight from the giant Wyvernsthat spawn in the sky far above, as well as a Giant Harpy Feather from the harpies that are similarly found at high altitudes.
Terraria Becomes Cyberpunk
Further up the list is the Jetpack, a mechanical-flavored set of wings that leave a fiery trail and offer more height and time airborne for battling the mechanical bosses, like the Destroyer. Better yet, the Jetpack is purchased rather than crafted, so you can forgo grinding bosses and regular enemies for materials, as you’ll often have to with the higher-end wings.
You can purchase the Jetpack for 40G from the Steampunkerduring Full Moon, New Moons, Waxing Cresent, and First Quarter.The Steampunker spawns after you successfully defeat one of the game’s mechanical bosses (the Destroyer, the Twins, or Skeletron Prime).
4Jim’s Wings
Developer Self-indulgence at its Fastest
Rounding the middle are Jim’s Wings, one of nine developer wings sharing the same stats with fantastical designs and names. While they slightly outclass the Jetpack, Jim’s wings are a rarer drop that you’re able to only find from Hardmode bosses' Treasure Bags on Expert and Mastermode.
Specifically, the wings or variantshave a 5% chance of dropping from Hardmode Treasure Bag bosseson Expert or Mastermode. While all the developer wings offer fantastical names, stats, and visual designs, the blue-flowing waving motion of Jim’s wings offers a captivating visual aesthetic.
Queen Slime is the exception to this drop rule.
5Flame Wings
Firefighters Hate Them
A fire-drenched pair of wings for the discerning demon, Flame wings are a fast and powerful set of wings that leave a trail of flames behind them. While they outclass the Jetpack and Jim’s Wings, Flame Wings require grinding a challenging mob enemy in Hell for a long while, so consider moving on to the next set if you lack an elevator or teleporter to Hell.
To craft the Flame Wings, you must combine a Fire Feather, which has a 1.333% chance of dropping from a Red Devilthat only spawns after defeating a mechanical boss, with 20 souls of flight dropped by Wyverns.
6Festive Wings
Santa Can’t Escape You Now
Sitting merrily in the middle are the Festive Wings, a pair of ornamented pine trees excellent for challenging mid-hardmode bosses like Plantera and Golem. Though obtaining these wings is a rather tedious affair, requiring you to repeat the Frost moon event until the final boss drops it, it’s still faster and easier to acquire than the Flame Wings' Fire Feather.

New Greenhouse layout ideas for all you green thumbs out there!
You can earn the Festive Wings bydefeating the Everscream, which has a 6.53% chance of dropping the item.To trigger the Everscream spawn, you must use a Naughty Present (crafted from 20 Silk, 5 Ectoplasm, and 5 Soul of Fright at a Mythril Anvil) at night.
7Empress Wings
One Wing Set To Rule Them All
One of the fastest and most challenging wings to obtain, the Empress Wings are a large set of butterfly wings excellent for battling the Moon Lord, Old One’s Army, and other late-game enemies and bosses.While the wings have a generous drop rate of 6.67%, any hit from the Empress will insta-kill you once dawn breaks.
Therefore, you are advised to fight the boss at night from 7:30 to 12:00am unless you want the Terraprisma to beat the boss during the day.You can trigger the fight by killing a Prismatic Lacewing on the Hallow’s surface.
8Fishtron Wings
When Fish Can Fly, You Can Too
The best set of wings available before defeating the Moon Lord, Fishtron Wings are a mighty pair of fish flippers offering superior speed and time airborne than the prior wings and are your best bet for your first attempt at taking down the Moon Lord. Though obtaining these wings requires no crafting or battling through an extended event, Duke Fishtron is highly challenging and demands a platform arena and gravity potions to better dodge the giant fish’s attacks.
To spawn the fish boss with a 6.67% chance of dropping the wings, catch a truffle worm in the mushroom biome, equip that bait, and cast a fishing pole into the ocean to summon Duke Fishtron.
9Stardust Wings
Courier of the Cosmos
One of several stat-identical endgame wings for maximizing exploration potential or tackling the remaining bosses, Stardust Wings are a pair of glowing celestial wings that offer the highest speed in the entire game. Unfortunately, these wings are locked behind the Moonlord, so ensure you’ve beaten the Moonlord once before beginning the fight.
You can craft Stardust Wings at an Ancient Manipular with 10 Luminite bars from the Moonlord and 14 Stardust fragments from the given celestial pillar. Though the Celestial Starboard offers greater vertical height and dodging, Stardust Wings boast the fastest speed in the game.
10Celestial Starboard
Still Waiting For the Celestial Port and Aft
Coming in first is the Celestial Starboard, a living star you can ride to trivialize exploration, re-challenge the Moonlord for building the Zeneith, and attempt the Empress of Light’s install-kill challenge. Though the Stardust Wings offer superior speed, the Celestial Starboard boasts far superior verticality, making it easier to vertically dodge boss attacks and traverse vast expanses.
you’re able to obtain these glamorous wings as a guaranteed drop from the Moon Lord’s Treasure Bag in Expert and Master mode and summon the Moonlord by destroying the four Celestial Pillars that spawn after killing the Lunatic Cultist.Some formidable weapons are advised.
