For players who face opponents relying on powerful badges, the Badge of Defense is essential. This badge nullifies the effects of your opponent's badges, rendering their perks ineffective. Available in Tin, Silver, and Gold, each level cancels out badges of equivalent quality. It's the perfect counter if you're up against someone using Warlord or Doppelganger badges.

8. Badge of Transmutation
The Badge of Transmutation offers the ability to alter a die post-roll. With the Gold version, you can transform any die into a 1, the Silver into a 5, and the Tin into a 3. Given that 1 and 5 can score independently, this badge is vital for maintaining your scoring streak.
It's available for purchase from Henslin Schaber at roadside camps.
