フライパン

Damage dealt +1 per food item in the backpack. One socket.

A core weapon for food builds that scales damage directly with the number of food items you carry. Despite being Common, it holds up from mid through late game thanks to this scaling.

Pan pushes past typical Common ceilings with a scaling design, serving as the signature "food build" weapon in BPB. Its 5-6 base damage gets boosted by "food count x 1," so five food items in the backpack effectively deliver 10-11 damage — numbers well beyond what a Common should reach.

2.2s attack speed is on the slow side, but combined with the high base damage (5-6 is top-class for an early weapon) and food scaling, its DPS is among the best early on. The cross-shaped 4-slot footprint rewards central placement, maximizing adjacency (Heat/Cold propagation, food-speed buffs, etc.).

Its biggest strength is resonance with the food ecosystem. Food items in BPB (Banana, Garlic, Blueberry, Carrot, Pineapple, etc.) carry a hidden synergy: "each adjacent food of a different type grants +10% activation speed." Pan + varied food arrangement runs damage, healing, Mana gains, and Shield generation as one unified ecosystem. Note that same-type foods do not stack speed buffs, so diversity of food types matters when placing them.

Food multi-functionality also raises Pan's value. Banana (heal + stamina), Garlic (Shield + anti-lifesteal), Blueberry (Mana + Luck), Carrot (accuracy buff), Chili Pepper (Heat), Pineapple (Spikes + heal) — each added food grows Pan's damage while providing its own unique effect. Food items are not backpack clutter but scaling gear.

Pan's craft targets, Eggcalibur (Pan + Heroic Potion) and Pandemonium (Pan + Corrupt Crystal), are late-game nukes: Eggcalibur spends 12 Mana to detonate all foods at once, and Pandemonium applies Poison on food activation — the finisher of the Reaper poison build.

• Commit to "adjacent foods must be different types." +10% speed stacks per unique type, so variety drives DPS directly
• Secure the core trio — Banana, Garlic, Blueberry — early. They are versatile across any build
• Blueberry is 1 slot, easy to tuck into gaps. Best at food-count + speed-buff duty
• Socket Ruby (food healing +20% multiplier, lifesteal) or Topaz (attack speed + hit volume) — both ideal
• If targeting Eggcalibur, secure Heroic Potion in parallel. Corrupt Crystal is for Reaper Pandemonium
• Pineapple (Legendary) gives food + Spikes + heal — the near-complete food-build piece
• The 4-slot cross shape wants central placement. Surround with 8 foods to maximize Pan's effect + food speed buffs
• Food builds "have no wasted slots" — every food gives damage + function, minimizing bag pressure

Ranger Food + Bow Hybrid

Add Pan to Shortbow/Falcon Blade bow builds and run Banana + Garlic + Blueberry + Carrot + Chili Pepper (5 food types) to raise Pan's effective damage to 10-11. Carrot reduces bow misses, and Blueberry Mana pairs with armor Sapphire Shield generation.

Reaper Pandemonium Poison Food

Craft Pan + Corrupt Crystal → Pandemonium to apply Poison on each food activation. Stack Amanita and Garlic so every food proc adds Poison, and compound with Belladonna's Whisper and Death Scythe for an explosive poison total.

Pyromancer Chili Heat Build

Pan + Chili Pepper x3 + other foods — each Chili Pepper activation adds Heat and Pan +3 damage. Combined with Flame Whip and Frozen Flame, burn DoT and food scaling coexist.

Eggcalibur Late-Game Finisher

Craft Pan + Heroic Potion → Eggcalibur to detonate all foods on 12 Mana. Stack high-value foods (Pineapple, Cheese, Carrot) and add Gluttony Amulet to speed up the cycle, increasing 12-Mana buildup frequency.

• Food count reflects "foods currently in the backpack." Once consumed, they temporarily drop out of the count (until re-acquired). Consumption-heavy builds create damage instability
• 4-slot cross footprint is large for an early bag. Puzzlebag of Improvement / Leather Bag slot expansion is nearly required
• Same-type foods do not stack speed buffs. Monotone setups like 5x Banana forfeit the speed bonus. Preserve variety
• 85% accuracy is average, but with elevated base damage, each miss costs more. Running Carrot for accuracy is recommended
• Craft targets Eggcalibur (Heroic Potion) and Pandemonium (Corrupt Crystal) have rare materials, so merges often complete late
• One socket limits gem choice. Decide Ruby vs. Topaz based on what phase of the build needs reinforcing
