Bearskin Coat Long Dark



  1. The Bearskin Coat in The Long Dark offers great warmth and protection, but is heavy and hinders mobility. Below, you will find a table that gives you every clothing item in the game and its values when the item is at 100 percent condition. We’ve separated it the same way it appears on the clothing screen.
  2. The Long Dark is a complex survival game that features a layered clothing system. Determining the best clothing is difficult without data. Determining the best clothing is difficult without data. This clothing guide will help players determine which items are good and which can be harvested for Cloth.
  3. 'Out in the wilderness, clothing is like armour against the elements. Wear layers to stay warm. And remember, wind is your enemy! Clothing offers different protection from cold and windchill. Your clothes can get wet from blowing snow or if you fall into water, which makes them ineffective and increases your risk of hypothermia or even frostbite. Keep your clothes as dry as you can!

Out of the many clothing options The Long Dark has to offer, the most unique and useful would have to be the Bearskin Coat. The Coat by far has the most protection to offer from the weather. You cannot find this item in the world, you have to craft it (over a period of 30 hours and 12 minutes ) from the Hide of two black bears.

The downside of the bear coat is that it weighs 5 kg. So 2 is already 10 kg of your base 30 used up (40 if you have a moose-hide satchel and well fed bonus. I'd recommend going with just one and only if you reaaally have to. Usually non-crafted clothing is enough already (with exception for a wolfskin coat. Women’s wool trench coats are ideal for an easy transition from day to night because the length and fit look fantastic over everything from wide-leg trousers to sleek pencil skirts. Explore coats from Maje or REISS with faux-fur trim or a hood for an interesting twist on this traditional jacket design.

Clothing is what the player wears on their body, and is the most common protection against the weather. Mechanically, this translates into how fast the Cold meter decreases. Properly maintained clothing will keep the player warm in most environments, at the cost of carrying the clothing, and thus, having less weight to carry other items.

  • You can layer multiple clothing items on some parts of your body.
  • Each clothing item has 5 possible variants, depending on its condition. These levels are 'New', 'Decent', 'Worn' ,'Ragged', and 'Ruined'. Clothing can be repaired with a Sewing Kit, usually requiring varying amounts of Cloth or Leather. Warmth and Windproof bonuses decrease linearly as condition decreases. Weight, Waterproofing, Mobility, and Protection are not affected by clothing condition.
  • Some clothing items cannot be found as loot, and must be crafted at a Workbench.
  • Clothing can become wet, and will freeze once wetness reaches 100 % if ambient temperatures are below freezing.
