What does the Warm Suit do in Sons of the Forest?
The Warm Suit is used as protection against the colder weather and elements in Sons of the Forest. If you don't want to feel the chilly effects of the climate on your expedition, equipping the Warm Suit will help.
Because it takes up every armour slot and offers no protection, however, the Warm Suit is best used as a means to survive in situations where the only risk is the weather. Take a hit from an enemy or monster and you'll feel it.
For this, the Warm Suit in Sons of the Forest is best used when swimming in cold waters. Alongside the Rebreather, it's an essential piece of equipment when foraging out in the drink.
