Characteristics
Overview
A boonie hat, offering minor protection from damage and cold for your head.
Craft it because you like the brim. The boonie costs ten cloth, twice what a baseball cap asks, and its own text promises only minor protection where the cap's says basic. You are paying for a silhouette.
That silhouette has one honest use. Say four of you hit a monument together and another group shows up in the same burlap and hide. Agree that everyone in your team wears a boonie, and in the chaos you stop shooting your own people. It costs no scrap either, but its blueprint is tied to owning the item on Steam, so check that everyone has it first.
If you want the head slot to do more, the beenie hat is the pick for cold weather, and the burlap headwrap costs the same cloth and every player can craft it from the start.
