## Notes we already publish

- (use) Water Damage Reduction Lv. 1 is the reason to own this, and it is worth exactly 15% off incoming Water damage. The flag on it is always-on: it does not wait for low HP, a stance, a base camp or a particular partner Pal, so the 15% applies from the moment the cap goes on. Against Water bosses that mitigation is doing more work than the 20 defense ever will.
- (location) The price is 5 [[item:BountyProof_1]], and those come off bounty targets you either kill or throw a sphere at — the token is the receipt for the contract. Redeeming happens at a Vigilante Bounty Officer, who stands in villages and towns rather than out in the field, so a bounty run only converts to gear once you walk back into a settlement. There is no recipe, no technology unlock and no drop table entry for this hat; the shop is the only way it exists.
- (strategy) Do not pay a premium for this exact stat line. [[item:HeadEquip052]] and [[item:HeadEquip053]] are the same 20 defense / 60 HP / 300 durability with the same Water Damage Reduction Lv. 1, and they cost 25 [[item:DogCoin]] at the Medal Shop — coins one [[pal:MimicDog]] hands over in a single haul. [[item:HeadEquip059]] is that same line again for 80 [[item:BattleTicket]] at the Arena, which is the worst rate of the four. Spend bounty tokens here only if you want the frog on your head or you have tokens sitting idle.
- (strategy) [[item:HeadEquip054]] costs the same 5 tokens from the same shelf and carries the identical Water resist, so buying both is redundant — one Water hat covers the slot. If you want the resistance to actually scale, [[item:Accessory_AquaResist_1]] runs Lv. 3 for 30% in an accessory slot, leaving the head free for a helmet with real defense. Pair that with a proper helm and you get double the mitigation and better armour at once.
- (trivia) [[pal:KendoFrog]] is a pure Water Pal, which is why the cap modelled on it resists Water. Every hat on the bounty and arena shelves follows that rule — the head it copies decides the element it cuts, so you can read the resist off the Pal without opening the shop menu.
