It is always good to bring a Torch or a Heat Stone (Note: Requires Heating from fire source beforehand) to prevent freezing. These are items that are helpful for providing heat when held or are used setting up fires, providing heat. If the player is going on a gathering mission, it is worth thinking about whether or not they need the Puffy Vest equipped. However, it takes up the clothing slot, which means that a Backpack cannot be equipped. This means that, when used alongside the Beefalo hat, insulation becomes a very scant problem in Winter. Another valuable item of winter clothing is The Puffy Vest, which is a tier 3 warm clothing. If playing as Wilson, you may also want to use Wilson's Beard to stay warm for an even longer time, due to the fact it has an insulation factor of 135. Also, as it is a tier 3 warm clothing, it provides the best protection against freezing. The Beefalo Hat is probably the most advisable of the warm clothing because it can easily be crafted and it takes the Head slot, so there is room for Backpack. Warm clothing is a must-have during winter. Various items such as the Heat Stone and Torch are also useful to prevent Freezing. Warm clothing increases the time before the Character starts to freeze. Since Berries, Carrots, and many other foods sometimes offer greater benefits when used as ingredients in a Crock Pot, it may be more efficient to store them in an Ice Box in their "uncooked" state so that they can be utilized in various recipes later in the winter.Įquipment is needed for maximum survivability in winter. Small jerky can be made in 1 day, making it good to stockpile for unforgiving circumstances. The accumulated Rabbits can then be killed to produce Morsels, which may then be dried in the Drying Rack to produce a Small Jerky. These can be obtained from "rabbit farms", in which a number of Traps are placed near the Rabbit Holes in one particular area. Morsels are also a stable supply of food during winter. This would only work if the player has access to a Crock Pot to produce non-Monster food items (such as Meatballs, Kabobs, and others but not including Monster Lasagna). If Meat is not available, Monster Meat can also be used. Furthermore, Jerky also restores significantly more Sanity and Health than other forms of prepared meat. Although Jerky does take twice as long to dry in winter, this process will still allow it to remain fresh for another 15 days (or longer if it is stored in an Ice Box). Meat received by killing Tallbirds, Koalefants, Beefalos, Volt Goats and Pigs can be used as a food supply for the winter. Any meat which begins to spoil (which can happen in the latter-half of winter) may be dried using a Drying Rack to produce fresh pieces of Jerky. Some may find it useful to set-up groups of Evergreens, Farms, Berry Bushes, Grass, Saplings, or Bee Boxes near their main camp. It should be noted, however, that only Evergreens will grow at a considerable rate during winter. This will cause the player's Naughtiness Rating to increase significantly, potentially causing Krampus to appear and steal the player's items. However, if a situation arises in which food is desperately needed and only live rabbits are available, the player will be forced to murder them all at once. Rabbits can be stored in chests to completely avoid spoilage altogether, but each individual rabbit will take up an entire slot of storage. Honey spoils extremely slow so pack a great deal of it. As such, gathering and storing food before winter begins is a far more efficient way of building-up one's food stores.Ĭertain foods ( Seeds, Fish, Honey, Koalefant Trunk) become extremely scarce (or outright impossible) to obtain during the winter, so special care should be taken to collect these before summer ends. Additionally, harvesting these winter-only foods can be difficult, dangerous, or time-consuming. While there are some unique food sources (such as Winter Koalefant and Deerclops) which only become available during the winter season, most of these are sporadic and should not be depended upon for survival. Storing food is an essential part of preparing for winter. It's always good to be prepared in terms of food, equipment and a base. The first steps for winter survival can be done before winter itself begins.
