After the prison break in Chapter 3 of Forspoken, your character equips a cloak that provides benefits such as a boost to base health and defense. Later in the chapter you will also unlock the crafting mechanic which you can use to upgrade and craft equipment using resources such as Nuggets, Grainstone, Balm Flax, Diurnite and many more.
