The Hide Sling Bag is a bag sewn by hand from a medium tanned hide and slung across the back. It is a worn container that leaves both hands free. It is one of the first back bags a survivor can make from hide.
Its strength is that it rides on the back and can be made at low Tailoring skill. Its cost is a small cut to running speed while it is worn. It suits a survivor who has no backpack yet and has a hide to spare.
The bag is made with the Sew Hide Sling Bag recipe at Tailoring level 1. The Tailor is the best occupation for bags and containers. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Carrying
The bag holds 14 units and takes 60 percent off the weight of its contents. It is worn on the back, so both hands stay free for a weapon or a second bag. It slows running by about a twentieth.
It beats the other crafted sling bags. The Sheet Sling Bag holds 10 and takes 50 percent off. The Tarp Sling Bag holds 12 and takes 55 percent off. The Small Leather Backpack holds the same 14, takes 65 percent off and slows running a little less.
Tailoring
Sewing the bag needs scissors or a sharp knife and a needle or an awl. It also takes one medium tanned hide, one length of heavy thread and one Leather Strips. The recipe needs Tailoring at level 1. Research Craft on the bag teaches Sew Small Leather Backpack and Sew Leather Tool Roll.
The Research Craft option in the inventory menu studies the Hide Sling Bag and teaches the recipes below.
