| Palladium Headgear | 12 × Palladium Bar | Iron Anvil |
Restorative cowl and mana pool expansion
Assembled at an Iron Anvil or Lead Anvil with 12 Palladium Bar ingots, the Palladium Headgear grants 3 defense to spellcasters. It increases maximum mana by 60 while raising magic damage and magic critical strike chance by 9% each. This item offers early hardmode mages a generous mana reserve for firing high-cost magic tomes and staves.
Rapid Healing regeneration and caster durability
Donning this piece with Palladium Breastplate and Palladium Leggings produces 21 total defense and activates the Rapid Healing set bonus upon striking targets. Rapid Healing accelerates health recovery, restoring 3 life per second for 5 seconds when damage is dealt. Compared to Cobalt Hat, which provides mana cost discounts, the Palladium Headgear trades casting efficiency for health sustain during chaotic combat encounters.
Trivia
- Increases the wearer mana capacity by 60, surpassing Cobalt Hat by 20 mana.
- Striking an enemy while wearing the full set triggers the Rapid Healing buff for 5 seconds.
