Graduation Cap

Armor · ArmorHead3

Graduation Cap is 58th of 202 head pieces by defense, at 90 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.

It does not stack, so every spare copy costs an inventory slot.

Crafting it takes 100 materials across 2 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 67× requirement — line that up first and the rest follows.

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.

Alternatives and Upgrades

Step up from here and you get Golden Crown at 90 defense; step down and it is Helmet at 90. That gap is the honest measure of whether an upgrade is worth the materials right now.
