Clans of the Forest: sunning spots and how to use them

Quick answer

Each Clan's area has four sunning spots in IBadDriverI's run of all of them, 16 in total: walk onto the spot and press Interact, and your cat curls up asleep on it. Players have named six so far: Rising Mist Path and Dark Reed Stretch (ThunderClan), Gloom Step Heights, Split Tongue Way and Two Legs Shadow (ShadowClan), and Moss Grip Delta (RiverClan).

ShadowClan's four spots

These are the four ShadowClan spots in IBadDriverI's PS5 video, in the order it visits them. The first spot's place names are read from the game's map in that video; for the other three the map is too zoomed out to read names, so each is placed against the ShadowClan camp. Kingy has not played the game.

  1. First spot: on the ShadowClan map, go just east of Split-Tongue Way, south of The Talon-Climb. In the video the route slips past a big mossy boulder to a fern bed on a stone among bare, misty trees.

How many there are

IBadDriverI's guide video visits four sunning spots in each Clan's area, ThunderClan, WindClan, ShadowClan and RiverClan, in that order, 16 in all. A PS5 player hunting the platinum had found five after an hour and a half, so they are easy to miss.
