Where to find the Traveler's Attire and why wear it?

To get the Traveler's Attire, all you have to do is to speak to any of the merchants you'll encounter after you enter the open world. You can find them in the Survivor Camps. The merchant will give you the Traveler's Attire at no cost.

Having the Traveler's Attire equipped will makes tracking down artifacts much easier. You can go into the map menu and choose to set the guiding wind to lead you towards artifacts (you need the first guiding wind upgrade). Having the Traveler's Attire equipped will also cause your controller to vibrate when you are near an artifact. It will also help you in general exploration by clearing more of the fog of war as you explore the map further.
