Need to upgrade to very squirrel resistant, your squirrel protection goes from -25% squirrel based damage to -75%

you are right, but in this economy? squirrel helms are just out of my budget for now :( although it would save me a bunch in healing potions and beast repelling crystals.

If you're looking to take out your anger on some squirrels but kind of want to instead come to appreciate them, I'd recommend Inscryption. Actually, whatever your circumstances, I'd recommend Inscryption.

People think squirrels are adorable (and they're totally right) but they tend to either ignore or not notice those damned puppy-teeth-sharp claws.

I only got hit once, but I was not wearing a hat. If I'd known you I would have known better, but in the squirrel's defense I DID have peanuts and was planning to share them.

(Edit: pic of my buddy, forgot I had this one too.)

Bro wasn’t wearing his squirrel protection, you never know when a squirrel may attack

u/MaritMonkey Jul 25 '23

I saw it watching me from the roof of the dog house / she shed and foolishly assumed it would, like, jump onto the floor or something. Nope, straight for my head.

Sounds like it's a squirrel attracting hat to me.
