Thirsty in Sons of the Forest?

Here’s how to find turtle shells and craft a rain catcher.

While faster, this won’t produce any lasting benefits and only provides enough food for a single person.

Instead, you shouldfind a pot at one of the campsitesanduse it to cook longer-lasting meals.

To get started each time, you shouldfollow the same steps to get the base going.

This will cause the water to become drinkable after a cooking animation.

you could also leave the open pot on the fire, allowing you tocome backandadd ingredients later.

In addition to having multiple charges to feed your whole team,some recipes will also buffyour stats.

You cancarry a full pot of water in your inventory, butnot fully cooked meals.
