Logging

Logging supplies logs, Resin and Heartwood. Use a Wood-Axe on trees outside settlements. Wood is used in Building, toolmaking and guild construction.

A log normally produces two planks. Wood type determines a bow or staff’s material equivalent, so Logging pairs well with Building.

Making money

Best starting route: deliver suitable raw-log Court writs, then sell logs or planks against actual orders. Best volume perk: Timberwright at Logging 100 gives three planks per log. Charcoal Burner is the alternative when confirmed Charcoal demand pays better.

Use dense woods to reduce walking. The Jungle of Bantha has 48 trees per map square, four times ordinary Woodlands or Rainforest density. On unwitnessed jungle all are Pine. Witnessed Rainforest supplies higher woods; Haunted Woodlands is the Ghostwood choice. The rare-wood roll is about 1 tree in 20, so density is useful without guaranteeing a rare tree.

Clean Cuts reduce swings without adding ordinary logs. Sell Heartwood separately or use it for a customer who values its quality bonus. Neither by-product is guaranteed on each tree.

Compare those outputs’ net sale value with the log’s net price. Charcoal yield does not improve with wood tier, so use inexpensive suitable logs.

Player-made stock competes with these prices. Processing does not guarantee a higher return.

For a gold-focused partnership, Ghostwood can become Building's Long Bows at rank 70. For silver, keep enough logs for the better posted writ or player order instead of converting the whole bag. Use Market fees, and include tool replacement and the time needed to carry a full load.
