Water

Water can be found in the Dark Caves, or created by a Wand of Chaos or Chaos Shrine. It is the only terrain in which Piranhas can be found. Upon removing blocks directly underneath it with bombs or a Wand of Digging, it will fill up any empty space and level itself.

Upon entering a pool of water, the player will be able to swim in different directions by tapping space, and will automatically float to the top, unless they have gear with the Sink like a Stone effect, in which case they will move as normal. Unless they have the Underwater Breathing effect, the player also has a breath meter while in water, and will begin to take damage when it is empty.

Certain elemental effects will have different properties in water. Fire creates steam, and lightning electrocutes the entire pool of water and deals damage to anything in it.
