Trinkets such as burning damage, death bombs, infection, shields, tool damage and damage reduction and more!
Trinkets have 4 unique tier slots so you can customise to your playstyle.
Trinkets recipes are earned by performing objectives for the Taskmasters.
A new trinket bench can be built to support this.
