Wonderwood: elf wood?

[Father Ribs]

I realized I had to destroy the elf abandoned tree for elf wood, but even breaking up everything I could find, I only had enough elf wood to build a few sets of armor...definitely not enough to make weapons as well.

Anyone find elf wood anywhere else?f

Also having trouble finding enough gold to make anything advanced...but then again I haven't gone more than two elevators length underground because I don't want to stir up the worm (if he even is on this map?)

True enough; though usually there are enough resources in every map that by the end your entire hold can be equipped with the best gear. If looting the elf ruin was the only way to get elf wood, why make so many recipes using it. If you didn't want to loot the elf tower and instead repair and make it homey, elf wood isn't even something you'll encounter.

In a game where you can start a new campaign quickly, or retrieve a save at a choice-intersection, this would be a non-issue. In a game where you can go in 8+ (currently 16 hours in a wonderwood map...yes I don't rush) before finding out you wasted your resources or that you could have ignored the elf ruin and just mined silver as there's plenty of it (haven't gotten down to gold or mithril level yet).

I haven't mined every corner of the map so this may be a non-issue. Even if there is no more elf wood, it's a level design choice, which I may have done differently or hinted in the resource description the rarity, but it's not "wrong"...I am just curious if there were any other sources.

maybe its a special limited resource, just like almost everything

you can upgrade your portal and join other maps full of gold and mining, and maybe even buy elven wood from the shop

also it isnt the best armor, the best use of elven wood is early bows, the elven bow is 40 damage 90% accuracy and easy to craft, the mythril bow is 43 damage 50% accuracy

Yeah, luckilly I made bows out of it, super useful. Didn't even think about the portal thing, never use it. Is there a way to keep that aspect solo?

Found out if you scrap elf furniture, you're likely to get one piece of elf wood each, so you'll be able to outfit around ten-ish folks in full elf wood gear. I usually just get full silver armor for everyone except warriors and spend the good stuff for powerful weapons and stock up on lots of health potions and bandages.
