Notes

  • It increases melee damage only, despite being crafted from the Avenger Emblem, which increases all damage.
  • The Mechanical Glove increases speed for whips but not knockback and base damage. This is possibly because whips are used like melee weapons but deal summon damage.

Tips

  • (Old-gen console and 3DS versions) Even though it is used in the Fire Gauntlet's crafting recipe, the Mechanical Glove is still regarded as better than the Fire Gauntlet, as it has better stats and is only missing the ability to inflict On Fire!. However, that perk is not worth it compared to the lost stats, making the Mechanical Glove widely considered to be a stronger accessory.
  • It may be worse than Warrior Emblem for melee weapons that do not benefit from speed boosts, as its 12% damage boost is lower than the emblem's 15%. However, the glove still boosts knockback.

History

  • Desktop 1.2.4: Now only yields melee knockback instead of all types.
  • Desktop 1.2.3: Now only increases melee damage (previously also ranged and magic). Tooltip correctly listing 12% instead of 10%.
