Cautious Slug

The Cautious Slug is a new item in Risk of Rain 2. It increases the player's base health regeneration by 300% after avoiding damage for 5 or more seconds. Attacking will not cancel the effect as with Red Whip. The healing bonus will be active until the player takes damage. It is still active when the player is at full health, however since it counts as regeneration rather than healing it will not generate barrier if you have Aegis.
