The Witch Hat is a simple piece of headgear that can give an otherwise ordinary outfit a bit more character without looking overly elaborate.
Its familiar witch-inspired design fits naturally with darker clothing and fantasy-style outfits, making it an easy cosmetic choice when you want to change up your character’s appearance.
It is also useful as actual equipment, with defensive bonuses and Dark Damage Reduction included alongside its appearance.
Where To Get Witch Hat?
The Witch Hat Schematic 1 can be purchased from the Wandering Merchant at the Small Settlement for 500 Gold, giving you access to the recipe for crafting this headgear.
Purchasing the schematic unlocks the recipe needed to craft the Common Witch Hat, rather than giving you the finished item directly.
The recipe requires 10 Cloth and 3 Ingot, so you can make the hat once you have obtained the schematic and gathered the necessary materials.
Witch Hat Effects
The Witch Hat offers a combination of general protection and resistance against Dark damage, giving it a useful place among the game’s more specialized headgear.
The Dark Damage Reduction can be particularly handy when you are preparing for enemies or attacks that rely heavily on that element.
- 20 Defense
- 60 Health
- 300 Durability
- Dark Damage Reduction Lv. 1 (15%)
Witch Hat Uses
The Witch Hat works nicely when you want a character outfit with a darker or more traditional fantasy feel, particularly when paired with armor that does not already have an overly busy design.
It can also be useful as a situational equipment choice when Dark damage is a concern, giving you an elemental option without requiring a completely different armor setup.
Once you have better headgear available, the Antique Dresser gives the Witch Hat another purpose by allowing its appearance to be applied to compatible equipment.
How To Equip Witch Hat?
After crafting the Witch Hat, open your inventory and place it in the Head Armor Slot to wear it as your active headgear.
Its defensive bonuses and Dark Damage Reduction will apply while it is equipped, with no separate effect that needs to be activated.
For cosmetic use, keep the Witch Hat in your base and use the Antique Dresser to apply its appearance to compatible headgear while keeping your preferred equipment’s stats.
Verdict
The Witch Hat is a dependable cosmetic option for anyone who wants a more distinctive look without using one of the game’s more unusual Pal-shaped pieces.
Its Dark Damage Reduction also gives it a practical purpose, particularly when you are deliberately preparing for Dark-based attacks.
The 500 Gold schematic is inexpensive enough to make it an easy pickup, especially if you plan on using the hat for both equipment and appearance customization.
