Trivia

• Sponge Boots used to be named "Spongy Shoes", as opposed to the rest of the set, which followed the usual naming pattern.
• Wearing the full set will unlock the "Absorb it all!" Achievement.
• There used to be a bug where a player wears  Sponge Armor or  Shark Scale Armor in water, then switches to another armor set while still in the water, they can gain the 2x ❈ Defense buff even if they are not wearing Sponge Armor or Shark Scale Armor.
  • This has been fixed in an update.
