Cold Resistant Metal Armor
Armor · ArmorBody0★Metal Armor reworked so its wearer survives cold climates.
Cold Resistant Metal Armor is an early body armour: 109th of 145 by defense, so treat it as a stepping stone, at 105 against the 1,092 of Cold-Resistant Ancient Armor.
Wearing it also carries the effects Cold Resistance Lv. 2, Heat Resistance Lv. 1, Ice Damage Reduction Lv. 1, which matters more than the raw numbers in the biomes that punish you for the wrong outfit.
No recipe takes it as an ingredient. Whatever you build is the finished article, so there is no reason to hoard spares.
Details
At 30 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 22,130 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.

Where to Find Cold Resistant Metal Armor
Cold Resistant Metal Armor is not something you find lying around — you craft it, and the recipe is below.
Every Tier of Cold Resistant Metal Armor
The same piece exists at 5 rarities, and the gap is not cosmetic: defense runs 105 to 168, a 1.6x swing. Which one you end up with is decided by the rarity of the schematic you built from, not by the recipe — so a legendary copy of this is worth more than the next item up built from a common one.

Alternatives and Upgrades
Metal Armor matches it exactly at 105 defense — those two differ in what they resist and what they weigh, not in raw defense, so picking between them is a swap rather than an upgrade. The next real step is Metal Armor at 112; below it is Heat Resistant Metal Armor at 105.
