how about we restrict the cold stuff to snowy mountains?

No challenge = no fun.
It is about providing means and knowledge to deal with the challenge not about removing it.

What about very low level cloak, e.g. leafy cloak with no slots and 2 thermal value using 20 "any leaves" and some strings ? It can give some "stealth" like cougars have as a bonus.
What about moving initial robes position to jacket slot, leaving space for a jute shirt.
Jacket and cloak are two most difficult items to craft as a newbie (comparing to jute clothes) and most new people have no idea that priestly robes can go into jacket slot.

Hmm.
I too, worry about how newer players will deal with the cold. The game already has a relatively steep learning curve, and with a new mechanic like this I think it may take away from their learning experience while they focus on staying warm. I just hope this will not drive them away.

it would allow them to sell their body in favour of thermal clothing.

If you need this kind of services you can already go looking for cheap newbies.
Providence already has at least three places where Pilgrim can reheat his/her body.
Seeing what is on your mind I am happy the church is not one of these places.

Ooooh, that's cold

FreezerBURN!!

How did we even end up on selling bodies from a cold update? That's a big jump! XDD

The tutorial about the cold could provide you a cup with some hot broth left. With that you could survive a bit and it's less exploting than a cape, since you have to do the tutorial and that's quite more boring than boil some water.

How do you thaw once frozen? I had fires put all around me and my Hypothermia number went all the way up to 93 but the block of ice remains and I am a level 5 crazy!

[ZoddAlmighty]

Is it me or the icon for shellfish trap is gone from the crafting menu ?
Cant even find it on my main? (100% i am not missing any skills)

Why hypothermia does not cause disease? This would make diseases more common because not all live in the darkness with rats.
