How i can farm more wood at early game?

[John Marston]

I played 570 hours only with my friend on host, and this is so hard to farm wood for a good wooden house on single (im playing with official server settings, i dont want to "cheat"). Any ideas?

Make a metal axe, hit a tree with it, repeat untill you have desiered amout of wood.

Chainsaw, get on a trike and use it. Don't get off the trike, you'll be waaaay to heavy.

i guess early on the only way you can get more wood is only by putting a lot of points into melee dmg - this makes sense if you intend your char to be melee fighter or just a work drone (aka most of points into melee and carry cap.).

i would tame one of those therzianosours ( the giant birds ) and skill him for weight and meele damage... its also great for farming berrys, thatch and fibers :D

Early game (lvl 20 or lower) wood collecting, you could steal from beaver dams (and run like hell). :)

Are you trolling or legitimately not knowing that you can get metal- even from the beach- using a pick-axe.

There is no need to head to the mountains early game for metal. It takes time, but a stone pick will get enough metal for a forge, Smithy, and metal axe in early game.

Unless what you think of as early game is way way much lower in levels than what I would call early game, especially if you are building with wood.

Hmm i have some beaver dems in my oasis, but they are three beavers at high lvls, im scared

Better tools and tames are great but the number 1 trick is to harvest what you need for the structures you need and craft them while harvesting. Keep structures on bar to monitor amount and the structures weigh way less than the materials. A sickle is nice, tho.

Protip; bring a Lystro

dont build to big, 3x3 is decent start size.

Make a fenced in area about 2-3 walls high with the only way in is a ramp from the outside and the only way out is through a small door. Shoot the beavers with an arrow and let them chase you into the pen. After they are trapped in the pen (You escaping through the small door) you will be free to loot all the wood and cementing paste you want. The AI in this game is very, very stupid. You just have to be a little smarter than the AI.

Actually, the fist tip is the correct. That is, tame a beaver.

You don't need a saddle to make the beaver to collect woods for you. Let it follow you, walk to the forest, when the beaver is very close to a tree, whistle "stop", the beaver will collect wood.

Works also for others creatures, i.e. doed for stones, etc.

You can do it even when you're collecting other things, or when you're on a triker collecting berries.

Go to the edge of the redwood and cut them trees down. I found the redwood trees give you 5x the amount of wood than normal trees.

It's abit hard getting there, I suggest go from the green obilesk side it should be less dangerous. But try to avoid the swamp
