Provides light for nearly one day.

-Scrapbook Description

A Miner Hat is a Hat Item which provides Light while worn. It is found in the Light Sources Filter and requires 1 Straw Hat, 1 Gold Nugget, and 1 Fireflies to craft, and an Alchemy Engine to prototype. It can also be found randomly at Skeleton Set Pieces. It provides a brighter light than a Torch and lasts 468 seconds (7.8 minutes), or almost 1 full day. It also reduces Wetness gain by 20%.

The Miner Hat doesn't break at 0% durability, and it can be refueled with Fireflies, Slurtle Slime, or Light Bulbs. Fireflies add 180 seconds of durability (38.5%), Light Bulbs add 90 seconds (19.2%), and Slurtle Slime adds 45 seconds (9.6%). Unlike the Lantern, a Miner Hat's brightness doesn't decrease as its durability declines.

Pigs, Bunnymen, and Splumonkeys can also wear Miner Hats to light up their surroundings, and having the hat worn will prevent Pigs from panicking from the darkness.

Prototype.png Tips

  • It is recommended to refuel a Miner Hat with Light Bulbs instead of Fireflies, as only the Fireflies found in the Oasis and under Great Tree Trunks are renewable.

Placeholder.png Trivia

  • Maxwell's quote for the Miner Hat implies that there are live fireflies inside the hat. Wagstaff's quote also supports this.
