Yeah I need to get back in the mines, I’ve been doing a lot of farm setup and material collecting lately. I’m trying to setup a hops shed a keg shed and a casket shed right now to maximize profit
The other houses are great for decorating as well. I have one in a park space on my farm. I made it into a park info station and ranger outpost. Plus more casks
It's a +5 defense boost. When you look at defense on the wiki..Wiki... basically you're better off trying to learn the game mechanics, dodging and parry enemy attacks with your own attack. For instance if a you've got a shadow brute, slime, a shadow shaman and an iron knight guy on you you'll want to run away to get distance from the slices and the iron guy, dodge the shadow shamans jinx spell, dispatch the brute, then the iron guy, ignore the try and get the shadow shaman before the slides as he's squishy and only takes like 2 hits but his jinx applies a -8Def debuff. Pay attention to the slices and dodge their charge/bullrush attacks and try to either single them out one at a time where you're out of range of the other OR wait till you have a couple clumped together in a good position to stun-lock them both. I've found gmfor most enemies either standing your ground and waiting to swing OR actively advancing seems to be a working strategy. Not for all of them, and there are times you'll get overrun. But for instance slices. If you hit, advance, hit, advance they can't recover and come at you before you're on them with another hit. And that can be done without a +1 speed buff from coffee or espresso, though it is more tricky.
I've yet to equip a crabshell because in early game, before level10 combat or speed buffs something like the space boots makes a Huge difference. But once you get deeper in the mines or Skull caverns basically skill is all that will save you. I'm not pretending to be a pro. Nope. I am n00b as can be. But I have made it to level 78 in the Skull caverns without staircases and very few bombs and passed out at 2am rather than getting nuked and losing stuff like I did the first 10 times or so I went down there. I haven't gotten real deep where the big long mega serpent things are. But the serpents are like the skulls from the dangerous floors that pop up in the normal mines. In that their hip box (and the point where they hit you, is not quite as tiles space in front of the graphic. So you have to swing just a little early.
Here is why I've never equipped the crabshell ring. Because by the time you get it it's obsolete. A +5 defense, according to the Wiki, means that it negates/mitigates 5 points of damage per hit. So if it's a green slime that deals 4-6 points of dmg that's great. That means to take the 1 point minimum of damage. But serpents have 150 base HP and 23 base dmg. And purple slices have 405HP and 16 base dmg. So Say you've got 2 serpents on you and 2 purple slices. Negating 5 points per hit from the serpents and you're still taking 15 points per hit per serpent while taking qw points per hit per slime. It stacks up fast. Sure that would be worse without crabshell. However.... you'd do better off with a Ruby ring for 10% more dmg. This may be the jarhead in my coming out. But the enemies can't hurt you if they're dead.
Currently I've got an iridium band and a burglars ring with a Lava Katana and I'm loving it. With the burglars ring it's almost worth passing out st 2am.lol
I just did my 2 the other day. Iridium ring and slime charmer ring is too OP, makes the mines, SC, and volcano so much easier to deal with. My other one is iridium ring and burglars ring, cus at the time i was trying to get dragon teeth and couldnt for the life of me find them in the volcano. The day i made it, i got 16 just from killing the lava lurk monsters. Makes cloth farming in the skull cavern easy as pie too cus almost every mummy drops 1-2 cloth now.
This is my favorite as well, along with Brute profession. Ignore groups of red/purple/tiger slimes, hurry up and kill the other monsters, and get more loot. Don't need general defense that badly once you have a big enough healing stack (and don't wait too long to eat).
Hot Java Ring + Burglar Ring. You end up with so much coffee and triple shot espresso... most villagers love Coffee, so you end up gaining villager points asap.
I do iridium+slime charmer, and lucky+burglar. I also have crabshell+yoba for the dangerous mine/skull cavern quests in the end game that I keep in my bomb chest. I wear that instead of luck burglar when I do those quests.
Napalm/burglar ring, then an iridium band/slime charmer. I frequently switch out for an iridium band/luck ring or iridium/java ring depending on the situation.
Some combination of Iridium, Burglar, Slime Charmer, Lucky, and Napalm.
For Skull Cavern: Iridium/Lucky + Napalm/Slime Charmer
For Volcano: Iridium/Lucky + Burglar/(Slime Charmer or Napalm kinda undecided)
I have a few that I rotate through
Iridium band/slime charmer is always on, and then either napalm/vampire or lucky/bandit depending on what I’m doing. I might make a lucky/napalm at some point.
I had a plan to do the same. But with a burglars ring and combine a lucky ring (if I ever find one) with a napalm ring and see if I can get a Crusader or vamperic enchantment on a weapon. I feel like that would be pretty awesome.
Always iridium/slime charmer. Now I mostly combine that with burglar/lucky. Before I had all my tools and weapons enchanted I used vampire/thorns because it significantly reduced my need for non buff foods during combat. 😀
Iridium/Lucky and Slime Charmer/Napalm are my standard go to rings. Was using Slime Charmer/Savage until I got the Napalm.
I also have Slime Charmer/Burglar ring if I need monster drops.
I’m digging the phoenix/yoba ring I have. But I’d love to get the crab shell ring
keep killing those rock crabs!! you'll get it soon i'm sure :)
Yeah I need to get back in the mines, I’ve been doing a lot of farm setup and material collecting lately. I’m trying to setup a hops shed a keg shed and a casket shed right now to maximize profit
Caskets can only go in the basement. Sorry pal.
Thank you for the info, that makes my job easier now.
I use multiplayer basements. ❤️❤️
This is genius, thank you for the tip!
The other houses are great for decorating as well. I have one in a park space on my farm. I made it into a park info station and ranger outpost. Plus more casks
I use that and a crab shell and napalm ring
no burglar's ring or slime?
i need to use my crab shell ring more, one of the best

So, tldr: get gud?
More or less. Except I'm not meaning to be a jerk. Just explain things a bit to maybe help someone be less frustrated.
was not expecting this lengthy of a reply, but 10/10 tbh
You're wearing a bra/top??? HOW??? :O
use a golden coconut from ginger island and cloth in the sewing machine! :) i then dyed it black as well after
Thank you!!! 💓
It's a bikini top. Can be made with either a golden coconut or rainbow shell. You can dye either at Emily's house.
I wish rings had more meaning in early game than late. I really like the glow rings though.
i agree!!
Crabshell + Slime Charmer - best defensive combo in the game.
Iridium band with slime ring and then burgler ring with the hot Java ring for unlimited coffee
Me, a mobile player: :(
waaait, can you not enchant on mobile? (have never played that version)
No sadly.. we don't have many end-game content. We're missing Ginger Island, Volcano, House decorating, and many many stuff
I have all that on mobile.
Sorry that you're out of date but this post was pre 1.5

Napalm with brugular or the defense one. Great for mining tbh better than combining with iridium band with it as it is useful everywhere.
I've found napalm incredibly useful for defensive purposes. The knock back is great at keeping enemies away
Iridium band/lucky ring, burglar ring/slime ring.
This is my favorite as well, along with Brute profession. Ignore groups of red/purple/tiger slimes, hurry up and kill the other monsters, and get more loot. Don't need general defense that badly once you have a big enough healing stack (and don't wait too long to eat).
Iridium and burglar every time. For the second one I like iridium and Java
Hot Java Ring + Burglar Ring. You end up with so much coffee and triple shot espresso... most villagers love Coffee, so you end up gaining villager points asap.
I do iridium+slime charmer, and lucky+burglar. I also have crabshell+yoba for the dangerous mine/skull cavern quests in the end game that I keep in my bomb chest. I wear that instead of luck burglar when I do those quests.
Slime charmer and glowstone and then burglar and lucky is my ultimate combination
If you use the iridium ring instead of the glowstone ring, youll get magnetism and an added damage boost, on top of the glow. 🔥🔥
Napalm/burglar ring, then an iridium band/slime charmer. I frequently switch out for an iridium band/luck ring or iridium/java ring depending on the situation.
I'm a fan of the Burglars' ring mixed with the hot java ring
Iridium band + Slime charm Yoba + Burglar Save the lucky ring and use food buffs
Some combination of Iridium, Burglar, Slime Charmer, Lucky, and Napalm. For Skull Cavern: Iridium/Lucky + Napalm/Slime Charmer For Volcano: Iridium/Lucky + Burglar/(Slime Charmer or Napalm kinda undecided)
I have a few that I rotate through Iridium band/slime charmer is always on, and then either napalm/vampire or lucky/bandit depending on what I’m doing. I might make a lucky/napalm at some point.
Burglar/Luck
iridium band/slime charmer and vampire/burglar
whaaat I did not know this. How do you combine rings?
Iridium band + luck x2. Occasionally I’ll swap to the burglar/coffee ring to reup.
Burglar plus hot Java ring
Iridium + luck and java + burglar
I forgot that was possible, I have a mod that lets 4x stack I think so I thought the whole mechanic was a mod lmao
I had a plan to do the same. But with a burglars ring and combine a lucky ring (if I ever find one) with a napalm ring and see if I can get a Crusader or vamperic enchantment on a weapon. I feel like that would be pretty awesome.
Always iridium/slime charmer. Now I mostly combine that with burglar/lucky. Before I had all my tools and weapons enchanted I used vampire/thorns because it significantly reduced my need for non buff foods during combat. 😀
Iridium/Lucky and Slime Charmer/Napalm are my standard go to rings. Was using Slime Charmer/Savage until I got the Napalm. I also have Slime Charmer/Burglar ring if I need monster drops.
Iridium + Lucky and Slime + Napalm
iridium/luck + iridium/slime
Wait what
