The Silencer is one of the most useful tools available to players in Sons of the Forest. The underground cannibals are completely reliant on sound. When moving through caves, you can avoid almost all enemies simply by moving slowly. If you don’t run, the cannibals will struggle to find you. You can walk right past them.

If you want to survive, you’ll need to be equipped for the journey. The Silencer can help with that, and there’s one in an unmarked location that is extremely easy to miss.
