I served in the US Army not the Air Force. When advised that it was raining, Drill Sergeant Perry said, "You're not made out of sugar. You won't melt."

viking dont need umbrella, must use hammer in the size of a child to smash things

honestly, the wet effect is part of the handicap a player must deal with
having another item stuffed in my inventory would be too much

I'd prefer this sort of idea, maybe make it somewhat heavy say 20kg

I'm not saying we have wax and tar to water proof literally everything we have, but... we have wax and tar to waterproof everything we have...

This game is about stamina use and durability and I hate both of those things in games. I love valheim and am very grateful to the modders.
Anyway, we have wax and tar... the devs just don't want to. I've already suggested the wax and tar solution quite a long time ago and what did they do with it? made roofs, that don't degrade with weather anyway... thanks.

If they ever add magic to early game, they could add a spell which protects you from wetness from rain. Wouldn't be all that useful but another small way they could let us use magic early on.

Theres a really underrated mod called rune magic that let's you learn some interesting spells (mostly traversal and environmental). There's one that creates smaller version of haldors force field around you that keeps the rain off. If anything that would be the way to go for an idea. Maybe a cape that puts a different color blood staff shield around you that only prevents wetness.

maybe when they update the oceans eventually, we can get some sea-animal's hide to use for that.

I'd say maybe four to five years from now

Dev commands can be used to fly or freefly. Though I could see a Viking trying to use wood and leather to make a paraglider.

Or maybe a companion, some nice looking girl holding a umbrella over your head,
you know like those girls before the F! race start..
but you must go with this to Suggestions&Ideas tab

Viking don't need no sissy umbrella. Raowr.

I'd rather take something to manipulate weather itself, like forsaken power with that effect.

Yeah but what if it let us have slow fall like the feather cape, and it stacked? we could make Mary Poppins as a viking.
