miner's helmet

[G3r0n1m00]

hello
I need help, I've looked everywhere but I don't know how to unlock the miner's helmet. I'm really friends with everyone but no one offers me the helmet and I can't find anything on the internet.

i believe the miner's helmet can only be found in the deep mines

I get them out of gacha machines ALL the time. You'll also get them randomly as rewards for doing tasks.

yep, i have 6 by now
the candle hat is way better but unfortunately unreliable to get
if you use the helmet, then you should buy the recharge table from Franklyn, otherwise is the helmet pretty useless

ok i go try this thx all

[m.e.o.w.]

Miner's helmet can be obtained through RNG in the Deep Mine, Threadspace, the recycle bin, or as a random reward for doing a villager's chat task. The mining hat has a timer and must be recharged periodically at a charging station (a reward from Franklyn).

A lot of players prefer the candle hat since it doesn't have to be re-charged and it lights up more area in the dark. Can be obtained the same way.

This and more info can be found in this guide (but beware of lots of spoilers).

not really, since the chance to get one is way lower than the Helmet. it never appeared as a reward from the Gatcha Machines, while i will be starting selling the Helmets since i have by now 10. i've got only once the candle hat & as far i can recall it was Fletch who gave it to me as a daily quest reward.

i just get him in the deep mine Finaly thx all for you'r help

Well, i found a way that can let The Miners Helmet last forever. You will need 2 of them, put 1st on untill it ran out then drag the 2nd to replace the 1st and it will on permanent (untill the quit the game at least)

I got both the miner helmet as well as the candle hat through tradding (board request). Unfortunatley that's unreliable (lost the candle hat because i quit without saving)

Miner's helmet really disappointed me as it runs out so fast. The only redeeming quality is that its bugged if you have multiple helmets. Good chance one of them will not burn out after the first one - but until that time they get used up fairly quickly. I tend to take 4 with me into the mines and usually find more in the treasure rooms. On the look out for the much better candle hat. Play with fam so we've found 2 candle hat's - first was obtained from fletch, the other was found in the mines.

Really wish one could recharge the miner helmet with the batteries found from metal detecting. Huge missed feature IMO.

Guys, please allow me to suggest two mods for you.

The first one is Peaceful Miner
https://www.nexusmods.com/dinkum/mods/23

where you can config if you want all animals to be passive, no animals in Deep Mines and also for how long you want the Miners Helmet to work, for example full day.

The second mod is
This Little Light Of Mine
https://www.nexusmods.com/dinkum/mods/92

where you will have light in the Deep Mines so you will need no Miners Helmet.

Of course, is up to you to choose how to play, I can only suggest, the decision is 100% yours.

Once you've found your first Candle Hat, you can order as many as you want from Clover. I take one into every new save, or friend's world.

yeah ... but the "once you've found" is here the stumbling block
i played now for 486 hours, i have several saves & only once, ONCE, in one save i was able to get the candle hat, it's that rare of a chance apparently.
& yes, i could get the candle hat in all my saves through multiplayer, but that would destroy my gameplay, therefore i prefer to complain about the rarity of the candle hat
in the last announcement of an update there was a note that the candle hat will be changed somehow, i am curious what that might be, i hope an improvement. i would prefer a craftability, but maybe the infinity of a candle hat will be removed
