Notes

• Aquatic Crystals can generate on the top of any 2×2-block wide space of naturally occurring Mossy Marine Block. However, they will never spawn within a 30×30 (25×25) tile area centered on each other.
• It also increases running speed when using any of the running boots accessories by the same fixed value.
