Quick Answer
Glutton's Jug is tied to Buffo in Backwaters. Equip the Jug and defeat 50 enemies to fill it. The key decision is whether you keep using it for its stats and quest progress or return it as part of Buffo's Jug chain toward Plasma Jug.
Where to Find Glutton's Jug
You get Glutton's Jug from Buffo near the start of Backwaters. Players often search for this as Gluttons Jug, Mina the Hollower Glutton's Jug, or Buffo Jug; all of those searches refer to this same quest trinket.
How to Fill Glutton's Jug
Equip Glutton's Jug and defeat 50 enemies while it is active. The Jug is built around repeated combat rather than a single boss check, so it works best while clearing normal rooms, revisiting earlier areas, or farming safe enemy loops.
Fastest Way to Defeat 50 Enemies
Use familiar rooms where enemies are easy to defeat without spending many resources. Avoid hard boss attempts or dangerous late-region rooms unless your build is already strong.
Good farming habits:
- Equip a comfortable weapon with reliable reach.
- Use safe rooms near recovery or travel points.
- Clear groups of weak enemies instead of chasing high-risk targets.
- Pair the Jug with defensive or sustain tools if you are still learning the route.
Should You Return the Jug to Buffo?
If you are following Buffo's quest, plan to return the filled Jug when the game asks for it. If you are still exploring or testing builds, you can treat Glutton's Jug as a temporary combat stat trinket until you are ready to progress the quest.
The practical answer is: fill it first, then decide. A filled Jug gives you flexibility, while an empty one still needs the 50-enemy work before the quest can move forward.
How to Get Plasma Jug
Plasma Jug is the follow-up reward connected to the Buffo Jug quest chain. Fill Glutton's Jug by defeating 50 enemies, return to Buffo when ready, and continue the quest steps that convert the Jug path into its stronger plasma-focused version.
Because quest details can vary by route progress, keep a separate note of where Buffo is and whether your current Jug is empty, filled, or already turned in.
Glutton's Jug vs Plasma Jug
Glutton's Jug is the setup item: it asks you to defeat 50 enemies and supports the Buffo quest flow. Plasma Jug is the payoff item for players who want the upgraded version and are willing to complete the chain.
Use Glutton's Jug while filling it. After the upgrade path opens, Plasma Jug is usually the version you want to compare against other sustain or special trinkets.
Best Builds and Uses
Glutton's Jug fits best when you are already clearing normal enemies for route progress. It is less attractive for strict boss loadouts unless you need its stat profile and have no stronger combat option.
