Order of the Hedgehog precepts:
- win as many combats as possible using ONLY Retribution damage (no attacking)
- mercilessly attack any foes too cowardly to engage us in melee
- must consent to combat-related spoilers
- Nightmare difficulty

Note that many hedgehogs typically do
not equip Charms of Awakened Synergy because we need the slots for other things.
Build for
high RD
,
low AC
(12 is usually good), and at least some
melee DR
.
Remember you must actually take at least 1 point of melee damage per hit in order to inflict RD, so too much melee DR is counterproductive, but if you get hit 10 or 15 times then each point of melee DR you equip is worth 10 or 15 hp!
