Carpentry

Complete woodworking skill definition with processing, bowmaking, and carpentry content

Woodworking transforms raw logs from Forestry into useful materials and finished goods. From simple planks to reinforced buildings, from arrow shafts to legendary bows, every wooden item passes through a carpenter's hands. Woodworking is also the wood construction skill — nothing wooden is buildable until level 30, with reinforced structures unlocking at 55.

Tips

  • Always use the best saw you can — speed multipliers compound
  • Cut planks in bulk before building sessions
  • Arrow shafts give solid XP for minimal log cost
  • Carpentry Contracts (level 25) are excellent for bonus XP
  • Building components (level 30) are a great mid-level XP source
  • Reinforced building (level 55) requires metal from Metalworking
  • Bow crafting requires Textiles skill for bowstrings
  • Efficient Cutting (level 10) saves logs over time — always worth having

Lore
Where the miner breaks stone and the smith bends metal, the carpenter listens to wood. Every grain tells a story — the years of sun and rain encoded in growth rings, the flex and spring of living fiber waiting to become something new. The first shelters were wood. The first weapons were wood. The first ships that carried civilization across unknown waters were wood. Even as stone walls and metal gates rose to dominance, wood remained the material of everyday life — the chair, the table, the bow, the home. But wood has secrets the mundane carpenter never learns. Elderwood remembers the songs of ancient groves. Spiritwood phases between worlds. And redwood — the great redwood — has grown since before memory, its heartwood holding power that even mages struggle to understand.
