Tips

 * This item is very useful in pre-hardmode and early hardmode because it has a fixed armor penetration value.
 * The Shark Tooth Necklace is great for overcoming the shortcomings of early high rate, low damage weapons such as the Minishark and the Bee Gun, which fall short when fighting high defense enemies.
 * The Shark Tooth Necklace is also very effective against expert mode bosses which have heightened defence, such as Skeletron in pre-hardmode, especially since Defence is more relevant in expert mode.

Trivia

 * The Shark Tooth Necklace is likely a reference to the similarly named item in League of Legends which Rengar uses. This item also provided armor penetration.
