In MegaBonk, Moldy Gloves stand out as an unconventional yet powerful poison-based item. Though often underestimated, unlocking them can dramatically transform your gameplay. Here’s how to acquire and optimize them:

Unlocking Moldy Gloves

• Requirement: Use a Microwave to duplicate Moldy Cheese three consecutive times within a single run.
• Permanent Unlock: Once achieved, the gloves become part of your item pool for future runs.
• Tips: Prioritize finding a Microwave early, and increase your chances with Luck Tome upgrades to ensure frequent drops of both Moldy Cheese and the Microwave.

Moldy Gloves Effects

• Each enemy hit spawns a moldy poison cloud that deals lingering damage.
• Synergizes exceptionally with Moldy Cheese, amplifying poison scaling for sustained area-of-effect damage.

Optimal Build Synergies

• Weapons: Wireless Dagger, Bone, or Lightning Staff (high attack speed maximizes cloud creation).
• Tomes: Focus on Attack Speed, Quantity, or Agility boosts. Pairs well with Aura or Flamewalker for zone control.

Gameplay Strategy

• Position yourself near enemy groups to exploit poison cloud coverage.
• Invest in Movement Speed for quick repositioning without losing damage output.
• If combining with Moldy Cheese, prioritize survivability and attack consistency for late-game scaling.
