If that isn’t overpreparation I don’t know what is.
I will say, I did get all the materials for it by blind luck not long ago and it was nice to just always have those effecfs active for general exploration, where with the potions you only use them when you know you’ll use them like building hellbridges or Duke Fishron.
But all the grind it takes for all of its items is *really* not worth going out of your way for, it’s not worth a bit of QoL. They buffed the spawnrate on water walking boots and lava charm and then undid it all by adding obsidian rose (and lava charm is still to rare anyway - it should have the same drop as other chest items and be available in any cave layer so you get it when you need it).
