I think Egghead status may be subject to resistance. While I have not tested this thoroughly, I have had three different characters infected with Egghead, by the (docile) Carriers' grab attack, a sorcerer, a thief, and a pyromancer, all wearing their full, unupgraded starting gear, without any rings. In the pyromancer's case, I'd leveled Resistance up to 20. For the thief and sorcerer, the attack resulted in infection the first time. But with the pyromancer, the attack didn't activate the grab animation or infect her until the third attempt. Perhaps the infection has an invisible buildup or activates randomly based on the Resistance stat or Poison Resistance?
