It’s a good looking accessory

Everyone seems to say this, but fails to explain in what way it is supposed garbage.

Mana Flower is one of the worst items in the game due to its main effect being literally replaceable by a hotkey.

Star Cloak is at best mediocre and at worst unreliable garbage.

The added bonus is a worse Magic Cuffs which is in itself one of the worst items in the game

...At least it's a buff.
Does the Stepping Stool actually do anything?

Stepping stool lets you stand on a stool and be taller. I use this early game for building and for memes with friends.

Did someone say Buff?

@Agent Sandstorm Σ My argument for it being bad can almost be summed up by me begging why people would use it to begin with. I simply do not understand what it offers that is relevant and not also offered by other, better options.

I mean if you have problems with tunnel visioning then the auto mana potion can be helpful.

[Late] If it's just a better version of Star Cloak (which I already use... a LOT), I don't see a reason NOT to use it...

[Late again] Also, in 1.4 I don't think most newer items are "dedicated" anymore, so you might have to go in with a Hybrid mindset, like with Berserker's Glove.

It does the same thing as mana flower while doing damage and giving you extra freebie mana. That justifies its existence as far as I'm concerned. I mean not everyone is trying to no-hit or is even capable of it.

Mana flower has a terrible effect already, and Star Cloak essentially a Thorns effect for an already very fragile class. I don’t understand how anyone sees these two effects and says “yeah, I want to spend an accessory slot for this combination of effects.”
