Common Mistake: Discarding Energy Gear Too Early

When leveling up to Icicle gear, many players readily throw away all Energy gear. This is generally safe except for the Energy Helm and Gloves, which will continue to hold significant worth because of their special attributes.

Why Energy Helm and Gloves Must Be Kept Around

There is something special with wearing that very attractive Icicle gear yet, for reasons discussed herein, the Energy Helm and Gloves should be kept.

  • Energy Helm: Continuously gains power stacks that increase HP by 1% every 15 seconds, making it more durable.
  • Energy Gloves: Gives an instant buff at the beginning of battle with three power stacks, which increases attack by 4%.

Set Bonuses: Comparing Energy and Icicle Gear

This section breaks down the benefits of combining gear sets:

  • Icicle Set Bonuses: Two pieces give a 12% attack bonus, four pieces enhance defense, and six pieces increase attack up to a total of 27% with health above 70%.
  • Energy Set Bonus: Even just two pieces offer an 11% attack boost, making the combination of two Energy and four Icicle pieces mathematically advantageous.

Legendary Effects of Energy Helm and Gloves

What makes them truly distinctive is the legendary effects:

  • Energy Helm: A stack of power gained for each round in battle increases HP, meaning better survival chances.
  • Energy Gloves: They begin with three stacks of power and give quite a lot of bonus as an initial attack, necessary for fighting effectively.

The Math: Energy + Icicle Combo vs Full Icicle Set

An analytical view of why Energy Helm and Gloves combined with Icicle gear equals better bonuses in attack:

  • At the onset of battle, the effect of the gloves alone brings a 12% increase, and when the helm stacks over it, this is further improved. The combination thus surpasses that of the full Icicle set, which brings in a total of 35% increase in attack at the onset of battle, discounting the additional stacks added by the helm as the battle progresses.

Uncertain Transition Points for Gear Swap

It is very hard to know when exactly to fully transition from Energy to Icicle gear—or even future sets. The following part will discuss the ongoing debate in the community and how one needs to test themselves to find an optimal gear strategy.

Future Gear Tiers: Shiver and Terror Sets

New gear sets such as Shiver and Terror may either duplicate or complicate the dynamics that exist currently. The players should weigh the benefits of combining these with the retained pieces of Energy and Icicle gear.

Proper gear management in Go Go Muffin extends beyond just fitting up the latest items because there is a strategic application of combinations that maximize benefits across different game stages. With an understanding of special advantages each gear has to offer, especially those old set pieces, players can enhance their gameplay’s efficiency and effectiveness to a great extent. So, play Go Go Muffin on your PC, laptop, or Mac with BlueStacks.
