Miner's Hat?

by **kemil88** » Wed May 27, 2015 3:13 pm

I did just made a Miner's Hat because the wiki didn't told me that it had a "fuel" ammount, so i tried to lit it with fire and i saw that in few seconds it did drop to 93%, how does it work?

I would imagine like a torch try dropping wood chippings or coal in it. See if it stays lit. Honestly I have not made one a torch has so many more uses.

IT basically works like a torch with the exception that you can't lit stuff with it. It's only use is to make light basically.

Thanks for confirming my assumptions Argentis.

So, why does it exist? I mean, a torch is far less expencive..

I would debate with that, i noticed that my results are better if helm light is up, not that i have scientific proof of that, just feels like.

There is a pride factor as well I would assume. It may produce a brighter light which could be helpful if you have bad eyesight / sun coming in the window producing a glare on the screen.

Torch also requires one of your hands where the hat does not.

The torch hand can only really handle a torch or a slingshot (I assume the one-handed musket as well) from what I have noticed. I guess you could sling shot bats or try to sling shot them.
