==Useful Info==<br />
'''Porcupines''' are small creatures mainly found in [[the Lair]]. They're somewhat tougher than [[quokka]]s, and they deal 5d4 physical damage any time you hit them in melee due to their [[spiny]] nature, but they are still one of the easiest opponents you'll encounter by the time they start generating.<br />
<br />
==Tips & Tricks==<br />
*Any attempt at [[constriction|constricting]] a porcupine immediately fails. Guess why!<br />
*If you really don't want to take damage from their spines, use [[reaching]] attacks from [[polearms]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
*Porcupines were removed in [[0.26]].<br />
*Prior to [[0.17]], their bite attack dealt only 7 damage.</div>Maintenance script
