It increases melee damage only, despite being crafted from the Avenger Emblem, which increases all damage.
The Mechanical Glove increases knockback and speed for whips but not base damage. This is possibly because whips are used like melee weapons but deal summon damage.

Even though it is used in the Fire Gauntlet's crafting recipe, the Mechanical Glove is still regarded as better than the Fire Gauntlet, as it has better stats and is only missing the ability to inflict On Fire!. However, that perk is not worth it compared to the lost stats, making the Mechanical Glove widely considered to be a stronger accessory.
- On the PC version, Console version, Mobile version, and tModLoader version, the Fire Gauntlet gives the same stat boost as the Mechanical Glove, and can be considered a direct upgrade.

Desktop 1.2.3: Now only increases melee damage (previously also ranged and magic). Tooltip correctly listing 12% instead of 10%.
