How to get it

Routes and locations

Standard Wood resources come from large trees that require a powered Saw Blade rather than the starting Sledgehammer.

Method / location

Large forests and mature trees

Cut trunks with a Saw Blade, break the logs into resources, and collect them.

Before you leave
  • Control rolling logs before they strike wheels.
  • Keep the saw head visible from the driver's seat.
  • Unload before cargo removes steering authority.

Collection Is a Vehicle Problem

A good wood run keeps cutting equipment, loose resource objects, refinement, and cargo from interfering with one another. Start with a compact collector before building a huge forestry machine.

  • Clear the fall direction before cutting near the vehicle.
  • Keep the driver protected from moving logs.
  • Unload before the extra mass ruins steering.
