How to Get Every New Permanent Buff in 1.4.4 Update in Terraria

Most of the permanent buffs that are added to the game are either purchased or crafted by the Shimmer. In this section, we will let you know which ones are purchased and which ones can be obtained after using the Shimmer.

Purchased

This first item can be purchased from the Skeleton Merchant. If you are planning to buy the Artisan Loaf from him, make sure to buy as much as you need before you even try to consume one. Eating the loaf of bread will stop the Skeleton Merchant from selling it to you.

Once you have consumed the artisan loaf, you will get a permanent increase in the crafting station access range of four tiles.

By the Use of Shimmer

However, here are the buffs that can be crafted and obtained after using the shimmer.

The Vital Crystal is a permanent buff in terms of the character’s life regeneration skills by 20%. Next is the Aegis Crystal which permanently increases your defense by 4. And the Arcane Crystal permanently reduces the cooldown between the use of mana and restoring your mana by 5%.

On the other hand, Ambrosia improves your mining speed and placement speed by 5% as well. The Gummy Worm improves your finishing power by 3. While the Galaxy Pearl is your friend if you think you are not lucky enough. It increases your luck by 0.03.

The Advanced Combat Techniques Volume 2 will boost the town NPC’s defense by 6, and their damage by 20. You might have realized at this point that it has the same stats as volume 1. In fact, you can stack them together to further toughen and strengthen them.

The Peddler Satchel, on the other hand, increases the selling inventory of the Traveling Merchant by 1.
