Wood in Skull and Bones is a necessary resource that you will need to keep your vessel floating and to upgrade it further. Ubisoft's latest naval warfare title brings some immersive mechanics, including ship building, which is the primary concept that the game focuses on.

As explained earlier, wood is one of the most important components in Ubisoft's upcoming title, and you will need to harvest this resource from time to time to ensure your ship can remain afloat in the wild seas. Here is a step-by-step guide on how you can acquire woods in Ubisoft's upcoming title:

  • Craft the Saw tool: You can craft this during the starting section of the game, but if you missed it, make sure to do it by heading to any Den and visiting the Carpenter.
  • Traveling to resource location: Open your map, and you will be able to find small markings that indicate locations where you can find wood. Head to the location.
  • Harvest the wood: Sail close to the land, and you will get a prompt. A minigame will start, which you can complete to obtain wood in Skull and Bones.
  • Turn on Auto Harvest: Head to settings and turn on Auto Harvest under the Gameplay option. You will be able to skip the minigame this way. Although this process is easier, you will obtain fewer resources.

You will be able to refine wood using the Refinery. Refined woods allow you to craft high-quality items and upgrades essential to making your ship the best.

Head to any Den, the hub position in the land where you can access all vendors and go to a Refinery. This shop will be marked as a Hammer and three Ingots. This will consume the raw materials and a bit of your in-game currency.
