What accesories modifier do you mostly use?

[Honk]

What do you mostly reforge for? I guess I always go for warding as additional def is always nice. Do you go for def as well or maybe crit or damage or maybe mana ?

[D3adNight]

i always go for warding it is the best early game in my opinion

[Wolfsmaul-GER]

idk, damage, attack speed, movement speed ill take it, even if im more of a tank i dont bother getting defense through reforges, as for mana i barely play mana weapons but when i get a good one ill just see how the mana usage is, i only take crit when i cant buy more

Warding - early expert, menacing - everything else.

Warding is a literal life saver in Master Mode early game. It can be the difference between an enemy one shot killing you or two, or two to three. Makes a huge difference.

Yeah I noticed it. I did finish expert mode ages ago and now I am trying master mode with friends. Now I am just before wall of flesh and I am not sure if we should stay with our magic damage armors or do molten for extra def

Me and my friends came to a conclusion that Warding (+ defence) is absolute best stat in master mode.
In master you get 100% armor from defence which means that 4 defence blocks 4 damage.
While +4% damage sounds amazing we didn't encounter any particular dps checks, because we killed bosses and mobs eventually, before they enraged. If you struggle with killing bosses in time - get damage enchants (or a better gear).
In master mode if you roll Warding on all items you get 24 armor (or 28 if you killed WoF and got yourself an extra accessory slot). And that's 28 damage blocked per each attack.
For example instead of getting hit for 100 you get only 72 damage.
That said defence is only 50% in normal and 75% in expert. Or 100 defence is -50,-75 or -100 damage, depending on the difficulty.

Warding can be utilized by any class. Plus a life saver for early game, Good choice for even end game

Build a Dryad House at your arena, Dryad will buff you for an extra 8 defense and hp regen.

does dryad's regen stack with campfires and regen potion? the extra +8 defense alone makes it worth doing that, if the regen stacks too that would be very cool.

[Nightstrasza]

Warding bcs defense is the best stat in the game, especialy that they made defense be more efficient with higher difficulties, if they left it the same as classic then other reforges might start existing but when 100 defense = 100 dmg mitigated and on top wearing a scarf and ice shell, it just becomes the best stat for any class, better to outlast an enemy than kill it few seconds faster and die to 1-2 taps.

[CozyPxris]

i tend to go for half menacing half warding on my accessories, as i normally play expert. In the start i use 2 warding and 3 menacing and after wof i use 3 warding 3 menacing up until about plantera when i swap to 2 warding and 4 menacing.

Yes the regen stacks as well. Dryad infact gives one of the highest single target regen buffs if I do remember correctly at +3hp per second.
