3. 💣 New Item: How to Use Slime Bomb - Automatic Draw Cannon
- 🧪 Slime bombs are bombs that summon enemy slimes, which can be purchased from the witch.
- ⚠️ The summoned slimes are hostile mobs.
- 💡 How to Use: Create an Automatic Draw Cannon to attack enemies.
- Stack the dirt as high as possible and flatten it.
- Erect a wooden pillar and attach a floor on top.
- Secure space for the slime to enter below, and surround it with a 1m high wall.
- Open the bottom so that the dirt sticks out.
- Put in the slime and break the platform to complete the draw cannon!

4. ⚔️ New Item: TWIG (Battle Brother) Usage Tips
- 🌳 TWIG is a training dummy for melee combat practice, and it counters when attacked.
- 🛡️ Useful for guard and evasion practice, but can be a hindrance when practicing attacks.
- 💡 Back Attack Tip: If you turn the direction of TWIG when installing it, you can freely attack from behind.
- 🔄 If you reinstall TWIG when using it, you can change the direction.

5. 💎 4 Recommended Accessories: Best Choice Conditionally
New accessories can be very powerful depending on the conditions. Here are the recommended accessories.
| Accessory | Required Adrenaline | Effect | Reason for Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Iron Brooch | 65 | Instantly restores 50 HP, +20 defense (30 seconds) | Easy to maintain adrenaline in boss fights, provides high defense |
| Pulsating Earring | 65 | Eitr continuously recovers +25% (60 seconds) | Easy to charge adrenaline when using magic |
| Jormundring | 70 | Instantly restores 100 Eitr, +20 to elemental damage and blood magic skills (60 seconds) | Powerful synergy when using illusion magic |
| Cathedral Pendant | 50 | +25% stamina recovery (60 seconds) | Low adrenaline requirement, versatility, useful in early environments (offsets cold, rain debuffs) |
- ⚠️ New accessories have the disadvantage of maintaining adrenaline (decreases if there is no action for 7 seconds) and taking up item slots.
