How to plant trees?

[inkbiegel]

I've bought the Ent DLC and placed a Tree Bed.
Now how do I plant a tree? It says I need tree cuttings. How do I get those?

[inkbiegel]

For anyone else wondering about this: in the lore menu under Ent craft it says I need the Berek rune to get cuttings. This requires a Rune Table, which requires bronze ingots in Sandbox mode

Our group is just on the starting level so I guess looking like a tree is all I get from this DLC for now.

The tree growing/tree cuttings are from the latest update and unrelated to the DLC you bought. Treebeds/Tree cuttings are literally just for growing trees in a less efficient way than just going out and farming them in the zone they grow in.

If you want to craft the items from the DLC you need to build a Wellingspring to get Entwood.

yes, you need a weapon with the berek enchantment
cutting trees or mushroom using the enchanted weapon will give you saplings to plant down into the tree planters
berek rune enchantment requires emeralds

depending on how much the amount of batdroppings you will get now, you can have a forest - means you might dont even need to teleport somewhere
a user decision imho

Oh I didn't realize they were unrelated...
At least the vine covered buildables look nice and will blend our stone base better in to the elven quarter.

The reason I find them less efficient is because each tree you grow only seem to drop 1 wood. Trees that grow in the zones can drop multiple at a time, and costs nothing except for a teleport.

I do like them for cosmetic reasons though :)

It's a bit confusing because they added the ability to grow trees at the same time as the ent pack, but the Wellingspring should give you special entwood to use for the buildables :) And yeah they do look good

yeah,they can look very good
ive gotta test how much wood they will drop - but i think its similar to the planting plots
they grow like plantables and i will check if bigger planting plots will give more wood
at the moment im busy completing my "full harvest" challenge in a sandbox game
nearly at the end now (close to the dragon) and its a hell lot to collect.
found another sublevel im currently harvesting on

From what I could test so far... there are actually three sizes of tree planters.

A small one (costs 12 guano), a medium one (24 guano but no stone) and a large one (24 guano plus stone). The small one yields 1 one wood plus tree cutting, the medium 3 wood plus tree cutting, and the large one 5 wood plus tree cutting, given you harvest it with a Berek-enchanted axe.

There also seems to be a small chance of getting more than one tree cutting per tree... I harvested six large planters and got 7 tree cuttings in total.
