Overview

Trinkets are permanent modifiers you equip before every Dandy's World run, and you can slot up to two at once across three saved loadouts. Picking the right pair defines your role as a kiter, extractor, or support, and can carry you to far deeper floors. Match them to your pick from the Toon roster for the best results.

Trinket Slots:2 equipped per run
Loadouts:3 saveable combinations
Categories:Skill Check, Speed, Stamina, Stealth, Extraction, Other
Total Trinkets:56 in-game (12 seasonal)

Trinket Tier List Breakdown

This tier list video ranks every trinket by how well it serves kiters, extractors, and supports, with detailed debate on the S-tier picks. Watching the reasoning clarifies why percentage speed trinkets favor high-stat Toons. Cross-reference it with the best Toons list as you build loadouts.

Tier List by Role

The table distills the community tier list into a quick reference, pairing each trinket with its strongest role and effect. S-tier options are near-mandatory for their jobs, while F-tier picks mostly serve challenge runs. Costs are in Ichor at Dyle's Store or via Research.

Percentage speed trinkets like Dog Plush only shine on high-Movement-Speed Toons. On one-star Shrimpo, Dog Plush barely moves the needle, so pick flat or utility trinkets for slow Toons instead.

Best Picks by Category

Trinkets sort into six functional categories that map cleanly onto roles. Skim this grid to find the standout option in each bucket before assembling a loadout. Most categories have one clear best-in-slot plus solid alternatives, so you can tailor pairs to your solo or team strategy.

Skill Check

Magnifying Glass is the extractor staple, with Participation Award and Mime Makeup as synergistic picks.

Movement Speed

Dog Plush leads for kiters, backed by Speedy Shoes, Pink Bow, and Alarm for panic-mode bursts.

Stamina

Star Pillow and Cooler top the list, helping low-stamina Toons like Shelly and Shrimpo keep moving.

Stealth

Diary is the only consistent stealth boost, though it fails on zero-unit Toons like Brightney and Gourdy.

Extraction

Vee's Remote, Wrench, and Machine Manual speed machines, with V-Mode offering the biggest flat completion.

Other

Sweet Charm, Dandy Plush, and event radars fill utility niches, including the Blushy Bat group-join reward.

Pairing Magnifying Glass with Participation Award makes the skill check window pixel-thin. Only run both if you reliably hit golden skill checks, otherwise the size penalty costs you completion.

Build a Winning Loadout

Two trinkets define your identity on a floor, so build around one primary role and one flex pick. These steps walk through a reliable framework you can reuse across any Toon, and they dovetail with the broader beginner guide for new players.

1

Pick your primary role

Decide if you are kiting, extracting, or supporting first, then lock the S-tier trinket for that role, such as Dog Plush for a kiter or Magnifying Glass for an extractor.

2

Add a synergistic flex

Fill the second slot with a complementary pick, like Speedy Shoes alongside Dog Plush for chasing, or Participation Award with Magnifying Glass for skill checks.

3

Respect your Toon's stats

Percentage buffs compound on high stats, so match speed trinkets to fast Toons and reserve flat boosts for low-stat characters where percentages underperform.

4

Save three loadouts

Use the three loadout slots to preset a kiter, extractor, and support build so you can swap instantly before a match based on team composition.

You cannot swap trinkets once a run starts, so confirm your loadout in the lobby. Loadouts are purely a save system; only the active pair is locked in at run begin.

Notable Niche & Removed Trinkets

Several trinkets occupy unusual niches or have been reworked out of the game. Egg Radar and Bone Needle and Thread are event-exclusive, highlighting Easter Baskets and Halloween Pumpkins respectively, so they only matter during their seasons. Dandy Plush's 50% shop discount is undervalued and shines on tape-heavy Toons like Sprout and Teagan.

Two trinkets were removed and replaced. Night Cap was reworked into Star Pillow and buffed to 100% stamina regeneration, while Water Cooler was replaced by Cooler. Buying every purchasable trinket costs 14,525 Ichor total, so budget your Ichor and Tapes toward the S and A tiers first.

Shop Costs & Acquisition

Most trinkets come from Dyle's Store for Ichor or from completing a Twisted's Research to 100%. Knowing the cheap pickups lets you bootstrap a loadout early, while Research grinds reward long-term play. Coin Purse and Research Map both cost 200 Ichor as accessible entry options.

  • Coin Purse costs 200 Ichor and grants 30 extra starting Tapes.
  • Research Map costs 200 Ichor and highlights Research Capsules every 10 seconds.
  • Research trinkets like Magnifying Glass and Dog Plush unlock at 100% Twisted Research.
  • Blushy Bat is the only trinket earned by joining the BlushCrunch Studio Roblox group.
  • Event trinkets (Egg Radar, Bone Needle and Thread) only return during their seasonal events.
  • Buying all purchasable trinkets totals 14,525 Ichor, so prioritize S and A tier picks.
