Overview

A young boar found in the Meadows. It has very little health and dies quickly, but killing one yields the same leather scraps and raw meat as an adult, so it is a safe early source of both. Spirit immunity is irrelevant in practice — no spirit damage exists in the Meadows. If you want a steady supply, leave piggies alive; they grow into adults that can be bred.

Tactics

A tier 1 creature with 10 health, it dies to a single hit from nearly any weapon you have by the time you meet it. There is nothing else to prepare. Blunt, slash, and pierce all deal normal damage, as do fire, frost, lightning, and poison. Spirit deals no damage at all, so weapons with that damage type will not harm it. Chop and pickaxe damage are ignored entirely, so an axe wielded as a weapon will not work.

The data does not say whether it flees, fights back, or can be tamed, so do not assume any of that. Treat it as a fragile target: one hit from a normal weapon ends it. No special tactic is needed.
