Mannequin and punching bag shenanigans

[PonyOfApocalips]

Hello in this post i present to you all Mannequin and punching bag intresting interactions with items.

1. Scalemail

Spoiler

Scalemail equped by punching bag can ignite enemies on fire- you can use it to stun deerclops when she use ice spike attacks.

Unlucky this isnt true to chilled amulet- beside it have simmilar mechanic it dosent freeze enemies- possible bug.

Spoiler

2. Slurpers

Yes you can equip slurpers on mannequin- but only to few seconds- it actually emits more light for some reason.

Spoiler

3.Rabbit king Cudlgel

Bunnyman will run away from mannequin with Cudlgel.

Spoiler

4.Backpacks

You can give all types of backpacks to Mannequin- it could be helpfull cause you can use krampus sacks for engame storege of unstuckable items- with quickly switch options.

It can also help to make storege unreachable for Marotters and Monkeys- even fridge alternative with isoleted backpack.

Still, it's unfortunate because if these mobs were attacking mannequins, it could be used as an item dispenser.

5. Parasitehat

If you somehow give parasitehat to punchingbag or mannequin it will crush your game ;3

This trick is mostly to stun cristal deerclops- it shouldnt be used to actually dealing dmg

So… In theory, could you build a punching bag next to a tentapillar, equip it with brightshade husk, and then attack it with a ranged weapon to clear out baby tentacles?

Oh you could just hit it with a sea fishing rod, I saw a guy showing out his farm doing this.

It won’t work well at range, because the pillar can summon tentacles on you from a distance in theory.
