The comfort system in Windrose rewards players for decorating their base. Higher comfort levels increase your stamina bar size and stamina recovery rate through a Well-Rested buff, making comfort one of the most impactful progression systems in the game.
Comfort is increased by placing unique decorations on your base plot. Each decoration category contributes comfort, but duplicate items within the same category do not stack. For example, placing two chairs provides no extra comfort beyond one chair. The key is building one of every subcategory in the Decoration tab of the build menu.
During the alpha test, players achieved a maximum comfort level of 40.
Category | Examples |
|---|---|
Furniture | Beds, chairs, tables |
Lighting | Torches, lanterns, candles |
Decorative Items | Plates, books, banners |
Trophies | Animal head trophies (unique exception; see below) |
Trophies are the exception to the "no stacking" rule. Each trophy is treated as a unique item, so they do stack with each other. Collecting all animal head trophies yields 12 extra comfort total. Trophies are dropped by defeated enemies and boss creatures, making them a reward for combat progression.
The Well-Rested buff is tied directly to your comfort level. When you rest at your base, you receive the buff with a duration that increases based on your comfort level. The buff provides two benefits:
Benefit | Effect |
|---|---|
Increased Stamina Pool | Larger stamina bar for longer sprinting, climbing, dodging, and fighting |
Faster Stamina Regeneration | Reduced recovery downtime after stamina expenditure |
These benefits are critical for boss fights and long farming runs, where stamina management is the difference between victory and defeat. Playing without the Well-Rested buff is described by experienced players as "crippling."
Efficient comfort-building strategy:
Open the build menu (B) and navigate to the Decorations tab
Build one item from every subcategory
Place trophies as you acquire them from hunting and boss kills
Check your comfort level in the bottom-left corner during gameplay
Rest at your base to activate the Well-Rested buff before heading out
The comfort system is confirmed as a core mechanic but may evolve during Early Access. The developers note that "comfort mechanics, item stacking, or maximum levels may change as development continues."
