How to Craft Stratus Equipment and Use the Armor Dash

Gathering and Enchanting Aerclouds

To begin making Stratus equipment, take flight and ascend high into the sky above Y = 200. At these high altitudes, search for floating Sterling Aerclouds. Collect these clouds, then place them into an enchanter to convert your Sterling Aerclouds into Chromatic Aerclouds.

Forging Ingots and Activating the Dash

Take your Chromatic Aerclouds to a crafting table to produce Stratus Ingots. These ingots allow you to craft Stratus tools, weapons, and armor pieces. Equipping Stratus gear provides passive movement benefits, including boosted high jumps and slow falling to prevent lethal drops.

To unlock the set's active mobility feature, craft and equip every piece of the Stratus armor set, including the matching gloves. Once the complete set and gloves are worn, press R to execute an armor dash across the air. This dash allows you to quickly cross large gaps between floating islands or dodge incoming threats.
