Petrified Wood will remain a rare resource in New World. Any tree can provide it, however, there is probability involved here. A roll takes place with a lot of luck factored into its results.

Players must harvest any and every tree they come across with an ax. Eventually, they'll have to be granted some Petrified Wood. If players want to speed that up a little bit, they'll want to improve their Logging skill and use Logging Luck gear.

The more players use their Logging skill, the more it will increase. A higher Logging skill means a better chance of acquiring Petrified Wood.

Apart from that, Logging Luck Charms scale Gear Score and are applied while crafting. Overall, it will increase the chance of finding rare items, such as Petrified Wood, anywhere from 2 to 9.3 percent. Players are recommended to use the Starmetla Lumberjack Charm on an Iron Logging Ax.
