Wetsuit

The Wetsuit in Rust is an essential piece of clothing designed to keep players dry when they are in or around water. Unlike other clothing items, the Wetsuit prevents the character from getting the 'WET' status, ensuring that players remain comfortable and their movement is not hindered by the effects of being drenched.

Not only does the Wetsuit keep players dry, but it is also incredibly beneficial when exploring colder regions of the map. Cold environments tend to slow down the drying process, but with a Wetsuit, this is no longer a concern, allowing for extended periods of swimming or movement through wet areas without risk of hypothermia.

An added advantage of the Wetsuit is its significant radiation resistance. With a 15% resistance to radiation, it’s an excellent choice for newcomers journeying through radiation zones, often referred to as 'radtowns'. This feature can give new players the edge they need to survive and explore these hazardous areas with a lower risk of radiation poisoning.

Keep in mind, while the Wetsuit provides these great perks, it should be part of a well-considered gear setup. Depending on your activities in Rust, you may need to balance its benefits with other equipment to ensure you're prepared for the diverse challenges the game presents. Whether for aquatic exploration, cold weather survival, or radiation protection, the Wetsuit is an invaluable item to add to your Rust inventory.
