Hellforge tailoring and minion capacity
Constructed from 20 Obsidian, 10 Silk, and 10 evil boss materials like Shadow Scale or Tissue Sample at a Hellforge, this chestpiece awards 6 defense. Its primary individual attribute raises your maximum minion capacity by 1, expanding summoner armies during Pre-Hardmode adventures without requiring dungeon exploration or bee farming. The extra minion slot allows summoners to field multiple summons simultaneously, vastly improving passive combat coverage.
Whip enhancement and summoner specialization
When combined with Obsidian Outlaw Hat and Obsidian Pants, this coat activates a set bonus granting 15% summon damage, +50% whip range, and +35% whip speed. This combination turns whips like Snapthorn and Spinal Tap into long-reaching offensive tools that tag targets from safe distances while summons attack relentlessly. This setup empowers early summoners to maintain pressure on mobile targets.
Trivia
- Prior to update 1.4.1, Obsidian armor provided defense against lava rather than summoner bonuses.
- Crafting the longcoat requires gathering obsidian formed by mixing water and lava in cavern pools.
