Caveman Wig

Uncommon

An uncommon head armor from the Caveman set that boosts STR +2 at the cost of INT -1, and causes your cat to spawn a minion at the start of each battle. The SpawnOnBattleStart effect provides immediate extra pressure in combat while the STR bonus amplifies physical damage — a strong combination for melee-focused builds. The INT penalty is minimal unless you rely on spell-type abilities.

SpawnOnBattleStart gives you a free minion every fight without consuming an action — it just appears at round one. The spawned minion acts as an additional attacker, a distraction target, or a Feed Bag/Petrified Poop passive propagation beneficiary. Pairing Caveman Wig with Feed Bag turns every fight into a three-piece engagement: your cat, your minion, and all your passives propagated onto the minion.

Caveman Wig is arguably the strongest individual piece of the Caveman set — the free minion alone is worth the head slot investment on any build that isn't hindered by the INT penalty. The STR bonus ensures your cat and the minion both deal more physical damage. Full Caveman set synergy is potent, but Wig performs well even standalone. A priority head piece for physical, summoner-adjacent, or Caveman set builds.
