Armor Temperature Resistance

[FerrousAradicen]

Why is it worthless now? Vanir use to give enough protection to survive at least the mounds, now I freeze to death with it on, that doesn't make any sense.

I was also wondering how clothing works and apparently it matters a lot what tier of thrall crafts the armor, because they also give their own bonuses to elemental protection.

You need armor and food together now, or just farm legendaries till you get the sword and shield that reduce cold

[FerrousAradicen]

How am I suppose to justify wearing layers of clothing(Hyrkanian) to protect from the cold when ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ rags(Black hand) does a better job at it?

Whoever came up with and implemented that change is special.

For that stuff, check the wiki:

Same also goes for the other professions where you craft gear.

@FerrousAradicen I agree with you that the temperature advantages the armor provides sometimes doesn't fit the design. Still a fitting armor (values wise) already helps alot with the elements. Even if for some places it isn't enough, unless you wear legendaries.
If you have trouble with the elements and wear at least medium armor, I would reccomend hunting the Red Mother in the unnamed city for the Dragonscale Helm. Decent armor and +20 heat/cold resistance. That should make surviving in hot as well as in cold areas alot easier.

You can freeze to death in mounds of the dead? Thats news to me. I just came from there and I was in normal heavy armor and was fine. You do not need any food until extreme temperature hits.

I first started thinking about it when I went to besiege the new PvE castle and my character got a heatstroke because I moved too close to a brazier lmao. Went to check armorer and saw that every piece of armor had the same 1 bar of protection, which was what prompted me to google it in the first place.

The bars sadly aren't that accurate, since the game shows 1 bar for every 4(?) points of resistance, rounded up.
