Logs can mainly only be acquired through personal gathering. Workers can't get them, and other players won't sell them because they need them as well.

Put on your big boy pants. You're going to be chopping trees for weeks.

Also, get your processing ranked up as high as possible (many suggest artisan), and have your workers start building the boat, as it takes 60-90 minutes per part, and there's 3220 parts to set up.

Completely agree with Suzaku to get started on your boat right away if you have the other parts ready. I'm in the same situation as you. I have about 500 standerdized timber squares so far and i get about 100 standerdized timber squares out of every 2000 logs i process (M1 processing and Artisan 3 gathering.)

P.s The Hedgehog is super OP and very helpful for all types of gathering. It's £40 though, but it's 100% worth it with everything else you get out of the package. (Like most people i only wanted the Hedgehog though as you can't buy it from the pet section.)

Cut trees get your skill up, at skilled 5 with a steel tool the drop rates start going up. Get fancy magic tools and you get more. If you p2w get the hedghog pack for 42 bucks 42000 pearls my god I love that thing other stuff in that new player pack aint bad either, but hedghog has chance to double gather. I love that thing it won't double per say your yeilds but you see like 4 birch 2 logs, 3 birch 1 log or some crap in the loot box after you hit it. Also works with hunting exp as that is paid out when you gather so you got good rng chance of double hunter exp for each thing you kill and skin with your butcher knife

As TOG Zalzany said, get your gathering up to where you can use golden tools for the fastest gather speed, get your gathering level to +5 (with guild buff, food buff, alchemy stone buff, whatever you need) and preferably get the package with the hedgehog.

Then go into a place with lots of trees.

you start getting up to 4 logs at I think prof or art gathering. Also if you got +5 gathering from food/clothing/elxirs and a decent lumbering axe it only takes 2 seconds to chop a tree.

Scatlings can only be obtained by actual gathering. There are places in Trent area where you literally just chop wood. From Trent, you send it back to calpheon, and then to elpheria. Rinse and repeat. Doing this may take about a week of just gathering.

If you're no longer on steam Olvia servers, what people do is life skill and silver farm during the weekdays and level during the weekend for the exp boost.

I'd recommend getting a +1 gathering embroider armor piece for the exp as you're going to need a high level of gathering for this. Drop all your axes in Trent storage so you can go back to it. Have a horse with you to drop the extra weight.

Great thing about the family share is ...that energi and contribution is shared between characters.That translates if you have main char at 450 energy ,and other 5 you basicly have 2700 energy at your disposal .To speed up secondary chars energy regen log them for 1 min each day they start regening way faster ,then if you don't log them at all.If you pass most of the quests that give you slots ,just grab 30-40 lumbering axes per char and start gathering those pesky trees .You will be done in no time.Also the higher level proccesing ,will result in better chanses to obtain more parts when proccesing them.But you need to make a quest chain for skilled,profetional etc chopper ,those the spirit will guide you to them.When speaking to him press the Guide option.
