Wintermute - Own Bearskin Coat

I killed the Old Bear and skinned his fur. Jeremiah are being a d.ck (as always) and all he say is "You need to kill a bear to make a bearskin coat".

How can I do my own bearskin coat. If Jeremiah won't tell me, who will?

You can craft a bearskin coat with the following materials: cured bear skin x2 and cured gut x4.
On top of that it takes alot of time to craft, so that's why I think it is not worth making one.

Thanks Golgoy. I know the needed materials and I already have them. The problem is bearskin coat is not on the crafting table list, in Story Mode, cause no one taught me.

I dont know if that's a bug, but yeah, you probably need to unlock the 'recipe' first, similar to unlocking the snow shelter 'recipe'.

just now I've checked the tld's wikia page on "Trust". And seems that no one will ever tell me how to make it.

The bearskin coat recipe is not yet in the storymode, will probably be added in future episodes.

On the other hand, if you ever try sandbox, save your first 2 bear skins for the bear sleeping roll, a nice improvement over the cloth sleeping bag (while you will definitively find better or similar coats in game just from looting).

not possible at this moment although Jeremiah is saying that if you want a bear coat you need to kill a bear :)

Yah, it doesn't make sense for Jeremiah to tell you that you can make one if you kill a bear, but then you can't make one when you kill a bear.

I posted about this the other day. Pretty much its a purely gear pacing issue. I agree storywise it makes little sense though, since you are shown one, and have to repair one, so you clearly see how one is put together, plus the whole "you could make one if you kill a bear" conversation.

Good point. Feels like they are optimizing for the complete stroymode experience across the 5 episodes. Problem is, only 2 episodes are out, and thus I agree that the game feels truncated or not ready at this moment.
