Thread: Hooded Cloaks protection

    Default Hooded Cloaks protection

    I'm wondering if people are finding any benefit from hooded cloaks with water traps? I'm not seeing it...

    In old versions, old as in 1.x you needed a hooded cloak to protect from rain in overland map, a normal cloak was not enough.

    Now rain is severely nerfed or effect is completely removed, not sure which.

    I think cloaks give some protection from water traps, but that would only be things worn not items in backpack which are protected by waterproof blanket.

    Hooded or not, cloaks only protect you from rain, not any other sources of water damage.

    Light cloak seems to do the job just fine in 1.1.1. I don't think anything has changed here.

    EDIT: Seems like rain doesn't affect items in the backpack anymore, regardless of whether you are wearing a cloak.
