Generation Zero Apparel Crafting

Generation Zero Apparel Crafting adds a system for improving clothing as you explore Östertörn and Himfjäll. You find crafting materials and items to strip down for parts, then use them to make your apparel more protective while retaining its 80s style.

Enhance your apparel

While exploring the countryside, completing missions and looting chests, you can find schematics for apparel enhancements. Combine a schematic with clothing in the same item slot and the required crafting materials to improve your stats. At the update’s release, over 20 schematics are available, each connected to a specific stat.

You can mix and match enhancements to shape your character for the ongoing conflict against the hostile machines. For example, visibility reduction can help you sneak, while bullet resistance lets you take more hits before an overwhelming foe downs you.

Find crafting materials

You can scavenge abandoned towns and defeated enemies for resources, or recycle equipment and other items you no longer need. The system uses six crafting materials:

• Adhesive
• Thread
• Steel
• Rubber
• Cloth
• Plastic
