Torn Clothing is the only Affliction that is indirectly linked to the player&#039;s overall wellbeing, affecting their Clothing rather than their body or mind.<br /> <br /> == Overview ==<br /> Torn Clothing is an Affliction that is often paired with [[Bruising]] and [[Laceration|Lacerations]], and is mainly acquired through Falls and [[Struggle|Struggles]] with hostile wildlife. When acquired, it results in an audible fabric tearing sound, followed by multiple pieces of the player&#039;s outermost layer of [[Clothing]] losing a percentage of its overall condition value. The same percentage is applied to every piece of affected clothing. The clothing affected depends on the affliction source.<br /> <br /> === Falls ===<br /> Falling from a significant height will result in the player&#039;s outermost legs and feet clothing being torn from the weight of the impact. It is advised to practice [[Mountain Goating]] in order to avoid being injured while attempting to scale down mountain or hill sides with large drops.<br /> <br /> === Hostile Wildlife Encounters ===<br /> Encounters with hostile predator [[Wildlife]] has a chance of having every piece of the player&#039;s outermost clothing being damaged during a [[Struggle]], alongside other various injuries. Being attacked by [[Wolf|Wolves]] almost always has a chance in the player&#039;s clothing being torn the longer a Struggle goes on. [[Timberwolf|Timberwolves]] resort to bite-and-run tactics to wear down the player, but can also initiate a Struggle if the player stands still long enough. [[Bear|Bears]] will always damage the player&#039;s clothing when attacked. If a player knows that they cannot avoid a Bear struggle, it is advised to take off all clothing and take the attack head on to avoid it from being torn, then re-equip their clothing after the struggle.{{Afflictions}}</div>
