Does the "Sandstorm in a Balloon" have the improved double jump?
I have both the Cloud in a Bottle and Sandstorm in a Bottle. for the latter it says it does an improved double jump which visualy, insted of just another jump you do a twirl and you seem to go much higher/further than the Cloud in a Bottle.
When i check the crafting recipes with the Guide both Jars can be combined with a Shiny Red Balloon but the descriptions for the double jump effect are the exact same.
So i am wondering, does the Sandstorm in a Balloon do the same improved double jump as the Sandstorm in a Bottle or does it do the same double jump as the Cloud in a Bottle
Best Answer
Yes, a Sandstorm in a Balloon has an improved double jump.
Reddit user DataNalle posted an infographic showing the jump heights of all jump-modifying items. As seen in the picture, the Sandstorm in a Bottle only goes up 20 tiles, while the Sandstorm in a Balloon boasts a distance of 36 tiles.
Note that the Cloud in a Bottle only goes up 11 tiles, which its in a Balloon variant only goes up to 19 tiles. So it's very clear that the Sandstorm in a Balloon travels much further up than a Cloud in a Balloon.
Also consider the fact that a Red Balloon increases your jump height by 10 tiles. This means you actually lose some of the effect by having a Cloud in the Balloon, since the increase is only 8, meaning you lose 2 tiles of jump. However, the Sandstorm goes from 20 to 36, so you get an extra 6 tiles of jump height when you upgrade.
So statistics wise:
- Sandstorm upgrade from Bottle -> Balloon (20 - 36) = 80% increase in jump height
- Cloud upgrade from Bottle -> Balloon (11 - 19) = 72% increase in jump height
So it's very clear that the Sandstorm variants offer a great increase in jump height over the Cloud variants.
