How to get Darkwood in Hytale
Some of the best sources of Darkwood are the snowy tundra areas that are usually located north of the maps. Here you will find tons of cedar trees, and if you cut them down, they will bring cedar logs, which count as a type of dark wood.
surprisingly similar looking firs and redwoods that also grow around Hytale's boreal regions do not count as Darkwoodalthough it is very similar to cedar.
While you can always cut down every tree when you get to the tundra, you'll want to pay attention to what you cut if all you want is to get Darkwood. Cedar trees have light blue leaves that curl upwards. In contrast, firs and redwoods have greener leaves that curl downwards. In the picture above you can see redwood trees on the left and cedar trees on the right.
In any case, you can cut down cedar trees with any ax. Just make sure you start chopping the very bottom block of the tree to get the most resources. Keep in mind that the tundra areas are home to cobalt and the Outlanders who drop Shadoweave trash here Hytal. If you want to make the most of your time there, prepare for a fight and/or a quick mining trip to the mountains.
If you have trouble finding cedar trees, explore the dry areas around the tundra areas as indicated by the large brown patches of land on the game map.
What is Darkwood for?
One of the most important uses of Darkwood is to upgrade the Farmer's Workbench Hytal. You'll need 40 Darkwood logs to upgrade to a higher level, not to mention all the other resources you need to collect.
Of course, Darkwood can also be turned into building blocks using the Builder's Workbench. Blocks made of dark wood have their characteristic dark color and at the same time a cozy cottage atmosphere, ideal for building small houses or larger buildings in the style of a pub. If you don't plan on building a base in the snow biome, consider making a small camp with a teleporter instead so you always have more resources within reach.
