Body Clothing too underwhelming compared to backpack and armor

[ansuman]

I rarely see any of the items in the body slot used other than armor or backpack. There should be a fundamental buff to using the slot for non-armor / backpack items such as faster animation(picking/foraging/other tasks) or faster movement even if it is a small buff.

People are too much of packrats carrying 3/4 of situational or even useless stuff, i understand in pubs where leaving any more valuable item being stolen in an instant, but in solo it's easier to store everything.

I did also notice how chester is always sitting in the camp all the time, though he is a backpack following you which should be enough space for you to carry everything you need.

 

I see winter/summer clothing as perfectly balanced clothing items, winter is so easier.

This is a thing already to an extent (puffy vest restores sanity while beefalo hat doesn't, for example) but they could probably stand to increase the difference.

While the seasonal chest items are pretty good, there's really nothing worth wearing besides a backpack during neutral weather on the surface. Like, there's no equivalent to the tam for chest items, the dapper vest should be that but is much worse while not being that cheap, and costing a more valuable slot.

Really the thulecite suit is probably the only thing potentially better than a backpack in those cases, but it requires going to the ruins first and is still worse than the tam.
