Graduation Cap
Armor · ArmorHead2★Graduation Cap is 78th of 202 head pieces by defense, at 67 against the 650 of Ancient Helm.
Wearing it also carries the effect Speedy Worker Lv. 1, which matters more than the raw numbers in the biomes that punish you for the wrong outfit.
Nothing is crafted from it — it is an end product, so anything you make is meant to be used rather than banked as a component.
Details
It does not stack, so every spare copy costs an inventory slot.

Schematics That Unlock Graduation Cap
Graduation Cap is not learned from the Technology tree — you need a schematic for it. One schematic grants the recipe, and they are world loot — chests, boss Pals and the late-game pools — rather than anything you research. Higher-rarity copies of the same schematic raise the quality of what you end up crafting.
