Combat Gear route modules
18 guidesWeapon / Bring a Prismatic Shard to the Three Pillars in Calico Desert.
Galaxy Sword
银河之剑
The cleanest major weapon spike for Skull Cavern. Save the first Prismatic Shard only if the museum route matters less than combat safety.
Weapon / Forge Galaxy Sword with Galaxy Souls and Cinder Shards three times.
Infinity Blade
无限之刃
Best for players who prefer reliable sword speed, safety, and everyday Volcano or Skull Cavern combat.
Weapon / Adventurer's Guild purchase after reaching the bottom of the Mines.
Lava Katana
熔岩武士刀
Buy when Skull Cavern is available but Prismatic Shard luck has not produced Galaxy Sword yet.
Weapon / Mine chest reward on floor 90.
Obsidian Edge
黑曜石之刃
Use as the default weapon until the farm can afford Lava Katana or unlock Galaxy gear.
Weapon / Adventurer's Guild purchase after Galaxy Sword is obtained.
Galaxy Hammer
银河之锤
Choose if you prefer club burst damage and special attacks over sword consistency.
Weapon / Forge Galaxy Hammer with Galaxy Souls and Cinder Shards three times.
Infinity Gavel
无限之锤
Best for players comfortable with slower swings and club special-move timing.
Weapon / Adventurer's Guild purchase after Galaxy Sword is obtained.
Galaxy Dagger
银河匕首
Use when building around critical hits, mobility, and dagger special attacks.
Weapon / Forge Galaxy Dagger with Galaxy Souls and Cinder Shards three times.
Infinity Dagger
无限匕首
Pairs naturally with Scout, Desperado, Aquamarine/Jade forging, and speed-heavy combat.
Ring / Crafting, fishing treasure, or loot routes depending on progression.
Iridium Band
铱环
A staple ring for nearly every build because it saves utility slots while increasing damage.
Ring / Reward from Gil after completing the Slime Monster Eradication Goal.

Excellent for Skull Cavern, Slime Hutch, dangerous mines, and relaxed combat routing.
Ring / Reward from Gil after completing the Dust Sprite Monster Eradication Goal.

Napalm Ring
燃烧弹戒指
A powerful Skull Cavern speed ring when fighting and mining happen together.
Ring / Panning, Skull Cavern, or special loot routes.

Great for treasure, ladder, geode, fishing, and general daily value; often combined with Iridium Band or Burglar's Ring.
Ring / Reward from Gil after completing the Rock Crab Monster Eradication Goal.
Crabshell Ring
蟹壳戒指
Useful when survival is the limiting factor and a save has not yet solved damage mitigation through food or boots.
Footwear / Mine chest reward on floor 110.
Space Boots
太空靴
A free and reliable boot upgrade before Volcano, Ginger Island, or rare footwear drops.
Footwear / Volcano Dungeon treasure route.
Mermaid Boots
美人鱼靴

Dragonscale Boots
龙鳞靴
Use when incoming damage is the main problem and immunity is less important than raw defense.
