Mechanical Glove vs Berserkers Glove.
Good day everyone, I was just wondering which glove I should use. I currently have a berserkers glove but the wiki recommends upgrading to the mechanical. Upon inspection I dont see any crazy upgrades and was wondering if anyone had input.

Basically, it's a choice between damage and armour. The Mechanical Glove can be upgraded to the Fire Gauntlet, which inflicts the "On Fire" effect, while the Berserker's Glove gives your character seven more defence points. So I would recommend choosing the one which best complements your current setup.
Both

Unless specified accesories stack so long as they're not the exact same ones.

In normal mode it doesn't matter.
In Expert or Master Mechanical glove, as you die within a few hits anyway and 7 defense is nothing.

You wanna tell me that on high difficulties your whole equipment means nothing?

Did I say that?
I clearly said the defense means nothing.

In master mode the damage values are so bloated, any enemy mob 2-3 hits you in most cases. Why focusing on armor. Why focusing on armor and getting killed in 2-3 hits when you can be fully focused on damage and die within 2-3 hits?
In cases where you bloat your defense it is a %-based defense like Beetle armor or Solar armor.

It is generally more adviseable to simply kill enemies faster.
There are 2 scenarios. You either get hit so rarely that you outheal the damage or you hit frequently 3 times and die.
You are better off dodging and dealing damage unless you focus completely on defense and get something like 190 defense.
