Chub's Collar

The collar belonging to Chubs, Mewgenics' rotund boss cat. STR+1 adds a bit of physical punch, and OverrideBasicAttack replaces the standard basic attack with a spin attack that fires a poison shot when the wearer takes damage. A rare drop from the Chubs Blind boss encounter, it's a strong offensive neck piece that turns both attacking and being attacked into compound threats.

The overridden basic attack — the spin attack — likely has area or multi-target properties, turning a single basic attack into potentially wider coverage. The poison shot on taking damage adds a reactive poison delivery mechanism: enemies who land hits on the wearer get a poison shot in return. STR +1 amplifies the physical component of the new basic attack. The combination of active attack override and reactive poison makes this collar operate on two fronts simultaneously.

Since it's a boss drop from Chubs, availability is limited to runs where Chubs is encountered and defeated. On STR-forward builds, the spin attack override compounds the +1 STR bonus. Builds that already use poison synergy (Cursed Hairball, Tapeworm, parasite sets) benefit from the reactive poison shots adding another delivery vector. The neck slot is used here for a significant offensive transformation, so weigh it against defensive neck options based on how much protection the build otherwise has.
