Tips
- Try to avoid spending gold on hats that are purely cosmetic, as they will not provide any bonuses where other hats would.
- Wearing the Bush Gear, try and hide your tools using Trees, Stone Mines, bushes and Gold Mines to make yourself almost indistinguishable from other players, or use a wooden shield or a Hunting Bow, as those hides pretty well too (Note that these above also don’t have diamond variants so you should try to get them to make you fully invisible). Also, you can make a decoy base and hold a building block (your choice of blocks, like wooden, stone, or castle walls) which will make you visibly a part of a base, which would fool your opponents into thinking that you are part of the base. You can also use spikes (Spinning Spikes look like greater spikes so it is ok.)
- Try to frequently change Hats to suit the situation you are in. (Ex. Heal with Medic Gear; quickly eliminate mass groups of players by hitting them with bull helm)
- If you shoot someone wearing Spike Gear with a Bow, you used to take damage as well, until 0.53.
- The Bush Gear is distinguishable from other bushes due to the size and shape being different. However, the difference is hard to notice.
- Never wear the Bull Helmet when you are not fighting or you will spend a lot of food keeping the health up due to health reduction. You can also equip the blood wings and hit players or mobs to heal after the damage.
- Sometimes wearing an expensive hat could be used so not many people will want to attack you, hats can be used to show your level. So if you wear a Bushido hat, fewer people will try to attack you as if you wore Bush Gear, even if you are weaker and do not know how to fight.
- If you have the crossbow, it's good to have a Marksman Hat to boost its attack power. The Marksman Hat is cheap, and it doubles crossbow's attack power.
- Use hats that help melee attacks with katana which is the strongest melee weapon (samurai armor, spike gear, plague mask, bull helmet, etc).
- The Boost Hat is good for Hand Axe players as it makes them very speedy + they are already faster than sword players.
- The Sawblade cannot be seen while wearing the bush hat. This is handy if you want to lure players close to you, as the blade will damage them when they hit you.
Trivia
- Most hats can be found in the Game Files by searching for moomoo.io/img/hats/hat_(hat number).png, however, hats 3 and 25 don't exist.
- As of update 0.897, the total cost to buy every single hat is 160,700 gold.
