Defense may be the Best Stat in Stardew Valley

If you’re struggling with the skull Cavern in stardy valley maybe it’s less about how much damage you’re doing and more about how much damage you’re taking it can be tempting to go all in on attack power but sometimes that’s not enough here I am standing in front of a

Serpent taking around 23 damage every hit that’ll knock me out in five or six hits now I’ll swap to my lava Katana with a natural defense buff bought at the adventurers Guild equip my two crabshell rings from the crab Slayer goal set my combat professions to

Fighter and Defender for a 25 HP boost let’s put on the best boots that can be found in the mines the space boots and finally I’ll have some pumpkin soup with all of this I now have a defense stat of 19 meaning I’ll only take four damage from each hit barely tickling me

And this is only using resources you have access to before the Skull Cavern, if we count Ginger Island buffs you could easily bring this down to 1 damage per hit, no matter what the enemy is!
