Bunny slippers FTW!

Although I agree, thorns are far too powerful. Unless the wound got infected, which doesn't happen or at least isn't represented.

Lol. Good thing you weren't around when thorns were introduced. Almost as deadly as swimming....

It might be pointing out that in rl survival situations a lot of people end up in serious trouble with foot gear problems. If you are wearing shoddy shoes when you get lost in the wilderness, or if you lose your shoes in the same situation you will find that trying to travel around at all in bare feet leads to punctures, sores, infection and being crippled. And that in turn frequently leads to being unable to survive because you can't walk around enough to get firewood and do other basic tasks. I remember someone in search and rescue once saying how amazing he found it to find people fully dressed, but barefoot and crippled or barefoot and dead because it hadn't occurred to them to rip up their clothes to make foot protection of rag which would have been quite effective.

I was walking back to my settlement and got hit by a boar[Hp 20-18](Ninja mother fuckers), and my clogs broke(I didn't know). So I farmed a bit, then got a thorn in my foot[Hp 18-13], got back up walked about 2 tiles and got another, which caused me to die[hp 2/13/100 - 0/0/100].

I just ran across your body in your farm. No burial for Uni?

Might want to put a few points into unarmed for dodge...
