Hey guys, the Wiki doesn't seem to mention *anything* about the "Cursed" debuff/effect and Google is pretty useless overall...

When I first started my run I came across a Cursed Essence (No Wiki page) which gave me the debuff. Luckily, the essence says on it it can be placed in a Hexproof bag (No Wiki Page) from the Witch to contain it so I did, and it removed the debuff.

However, after some time I now have a seemingly permanent Cursed debuff, and the only notable thing I did was kill the Eye of Cthulu. I have checked, there is no essence hiding around somewhere.

How can I reduce this rather annoying status effect that is *always* displayed above my head? Where can info on this 'feature' be found? Why is there no documentation on it when it's seemingly so prevalent?

Edit: I did find a way to hide the debuff icon (but not disable effects) in Client config. Sadly, it hides it both above the player model AND under the hotbar making it impossible to track. I haven't found a way to disable the effects entirely.

I have also checked all my accessories and tools/weapons in inventory, I cannot find anything that might increase this level.

Edit2: It was an essence that snuck into the enchantment table... Why in the world do essences count in there..?

For the mod developer, if there's a Hexproof bag in inventory the cursed essences really should prioritize that bag and have to *manually* be placed into table/main inventory. It should not prioritize flying into the enchantment table where it then inexplicably applies the debuff.
