Swee Cap
Armor · ArmorHead1★A cap modeled on a Swee.
Swee Cap is an early head piece: 166th of 202 by defense, so treat it as a stepping stone, at 20 against the 650 of Ancient Helm.
Wearing it also carries the effect Dark Damage Reduction Lv. 1, which matters more than the raw numbers in the biomes that punish you for the wrong outfit.
It feeds no other recipe, which makes it a terminal item: craft what you will actually carry and stop there.
Details
It does not stack, so every spare copy costs an inventory slot.

Where to Find Swee Cap
Swee Cap is not something you find lying around — you craft it, and the recipe is below.
Every Tier of Swee Cap
The same piece exists at 5 rarities, and the gap is not cosmetic: defense runs 20 to 20, a 1x swing. Which one you end up with is decided by the rarity of the schematic you built from, not by the recipe — so a legendary copy of this is worth more than the next item up built from a common one.
Schematics That Unlock Swee Cap
Swee Cap is not learned from the Technology tree — you need a schematic for it. One schematic grants the recipe, and they are world loot — chests, boss Pals and the late-game pools — rather than anything you research. Higher-rarity copies of the same schematic raise the quality of what you end up crafting.

Alternatives and Upgrades
Ribbuny Headband matches it exactly at 20 defense — those two differ in what they resist and what they weigh, not in raw defense, so picking between them is a swap rather than an upgrade. The next real step is Feathered Hair Band at 21; below it is Bowler Hat at 20.
