🎯 Tips & Tricks
Check if your game version matches the mod's last update (Jan 2026) to avoid issues.
Look for the chips in your inventory or crafting menu—since the description is vague, explore your item lists.
If you use other mods, load Protection Chips after them to ensure it doesn't get overwritten.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Tiny download and install—no bloat, just three chips.
- Directly addresses creature bite annoyance—a real QoL boost.
- Active author (updated Jan 2026) and decent download count for a niche utility.
👎 Cons
- Only 19 endorsements—small community footprint, so less tested.
- No detailed description of chip stats or how to obtain them—you're going in blind.
- No mention of compatibility with other mods or game version—could conflict.
