What are you going to do with all the bountiful resources you’ve been gathering so far in Hytale, an open-world RPG that tasks you with surviving off the land and establishing a life for yourself in the wilds, other than craft a variety of weapons, equipment, furniture, farming gear, and more?
Craft a Workbench as soon as possible in Hytale and use it to make a variety of crafting tables that further expand your capabilities in the game. You’ll start with simple things like farming or weapon-making, and eventually graduate to alchemy and the arcane as you improve the Workbench.
Make A Workbench To Start Crafting
As you first venture from your spawn in a new save in Hytale, you’ve got tons to learn about your new pixelated open-world environment! One of your very first goals should be to make a Workbench as soon as you can, since they’re going to be the most critical part of crafting in Hytale.
Hytale Launches To A Staggering Opening-Day Player Count Of Almost Three Million
It looks like the game’s dream of being supported for ten years is about to become a reality.
You can craft a Workbench from your pocket crafting menu in the inventory screen for:
- Four pieces of Tree Trunk, which can be of any variety. Gather these by crafting a Crude Hatchet and chopping down the trees near your spawn.
- Three pieces of any Stone. The Stone Rubble you might find in or around your spawn doesn’t count here; craft a Crude Pickaxe and get to breaking up rocks.
After you’ve made it from your pocket crafting menu, place the Workbench and interact with it to open up a wide, wide world of crafting possibilities! On the main screen when you interact with it, you’ll see your character on the right with info about your gear and stats, your current inventory, a list of potential recipes, and details about the bench’s level on the main screen.
There are four tabs along the top of the Workbench menu: Survival, Tools, Crafting, and Tinkering. Most of the items in here are things you’ll make once and simply have to use in the world, like increasingly study hand tools or weapons that can handle any foe, but the Crafting tab is where you can make other crafting tables that continue to provide new stuff as you go.
Some of these crafting recipes in Hytale, though, will be locked behind upgrading the Workbench or other crafting tables with materials you’re getting as you explore. You’ll need things like ingots, plant material, specifically named resources, and much more. That said, upgrading your crafting benches is the best way to keep unlocking new crafting recipes, so it’s always worth it to pursue.

Basic Crafting Bench Overviews
Furnace
To use the furnace to make ingots in Hytaler, you’ll need not only some kind of raw ore you’ve extracted from a mining expedition, but also a fuel source to keep the fire roaring while you work.
Ores available for smelting in Hytale include Copper, Iron, Thorium, Cobalt, Adamantite, and Mithril. Progress through increasingly dangerous levels of cave systems in search of progressively more durable ores, then place them in the furnace back at your base to smelt them into ingots to use in crafting, since most recipes call for processed ingots over raw ores.
Armorer’s Workbench
You’ll notice as soon as you start fighting your first enemy in Hytale that you’ll take a good amount of damage from each hit before you’ve found a way to help defend yourself. That’s where the Armorer’s Workbench comes in = it’s where you’ll craft armor for four main parts of your avatar (their head, chest, hands, and legs). Upgrade regularly to learn to make armor with tougher, rarer materials.
Blacksmith’s Anvil
Are you looking for the very best in ways to defend yourself as you venture through Exploration mode, coming up against other people in PVP mode or slews of monsters that roam the caves or across the fields of the overworld at night?
Craft an Armorer’s Workbench and unlock access to dozens of different weapons made from all kinds of materials. It’ll be used in conjunction with your furnace as you smelt ores into ingots, and the Armorer’s Workbench for some armor to pair, and you’ll be neigh unstoppable.
Tanning Rack
The Tanning Rack is how you’ll be processing leathers of increasing durability and rarity, which you may have noticed will be required for several of the more advanced tools you can make. The farmer’s rack has plenty of upgrades to perform, too!
Have you been raising any trapped Cattle so far, or have you taken on animals around the overworld that drop meats and leathers? Here’s where you’ll be able to dry hides into leather, which can then be used to make weapons, tools, and more.
Farmer’s Workbench?
Are you trying to sow the land and see what you can grow on your own instead of relying on just the berries and mushrooms in the wild? By placing a Farmer’s Workbench, you’ll have access to all kinds of crop farming, tree planting, and ways to use materials decoratively around your base to spruce things up.
You’ll learn to use shovels to clear land, seed bags to plant crops, and so much more. Grow a veritable garden and use it to entice animals to your base to make a proper farm, or just use them for meal recipes.
Chef’s Stove
Order up! Armor is good for keeping damage from happening, but to heal when it does, you’ll need to keep a stock of assorted foods on you when you go out on an adventure. Using a combination of fruits, veggies, meats, and grains, you’ll be able to prepare a variety of cooked meals for yourself for the next time you go caving or on a journey.
Builder’s Workbench
Are you trying to build something but you’re playing in Exploration Mode instead of Creative? Head to the Builder’s Workbench to process raw materials into construction goods. Pop wood or stone resources into the bench and see what items it’ll allow you to make.
You’ll find new recipes for each type of wood and stone you use, including things you can use to build homes and bases, decorative items for once you’ve got the main structures all set, and so much more. The bench has its tier maxed out right away, so nothing is off-limited.
Furniture Workbench
You used everything from the Builder’s Workbench to craft a base, so why not get a little creative with the raw goods you can put into the input slot in the Furniture Workbench and see what kind of decorative items you can make to spuce the place up a bit?
Salvager’s Workbench
Have you made something earlier in the game and found you’ve no longer got a use for the item itself, but that it wouldn’t hurt to have those resources back? Place the item into the Salvager’s Workbench and recycle items you’ve crafted back down to their base ingredients.
The Salvager’s Workbench is a tier two crafting bench recipe in Hytale.
