Tougher Times

Not to be confused with the similar item from the first game, Tough Times. Tougher Times is an unlockable common item in Risk of Rain 2. Whenever the player is dealt damage, there is a chance to ignore it per stack (15% according to the logbook). This includes using the Blood Altar.

In actuality, the equation used to determine the chance to ignore damage is as follows: Chance to take damage = 100/ (0.15 * n + 1)%. So at one stack, there is around a 13% chance to block damage. At ten, there is exactly a 60% chance. In order to reduce chances of getting hit to exactly 10%, a whopping stack of 60 is needed. The chances of getting hit drop to 0% at exactly 1,333,333,327 items. Any more is a waste of money.

Whenever damage is ignored, a squeaking sound is played.

This item is visually show on the character as a teddy-bear hanging on their back, and sitting on Auto-Turrets that inherit it.
