This Valheim crafting progression guide will come in handy when you're dropped
in a strange world with not much more than ‘try to survive’ as an instruction.
In Valheim, progression means gathering new materials, crafting new items, and
defeating the Biome Bosses. One of the main difficulties is that you can’t see
the crafting recipes until you gather at least one of the required materials for
the first time. 



So, if you want to know what kind of resources you should look for, here’s a
list of Valheim crafting items you need to unlock the first essential crafting
recipes.



Valheim tips | Valheim workbench | Valheim repair | Valheim seeds | Valheim
merchant | Valheim biomes | Valheim roadmap | Best Valheim weapons | Valheim
consoles | Valheim Elder summon | Valheim cheats and spawn item list | Best
Valheim armor | Best Valheim armor | Valheim Bonemass | Valheim flint





VALHEIM CRAFTING PROGRESSION GUIDE



(Image credit: Coffee Stain Publishing)

The way this Valheim crafting progression guide works is by listing the core
components you need to find in order to unlock all the craftable items and
objects in the game. Follow our explainer on how to get each one and you'll
slowly make your way through Valheim, taking down the bosses as you go. Valheim
has countless resources and materials to continue upgrading your equipment, but
this list is a general path that you should be looking to take through the game.

RECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU...



1. WOOD

First up is an easy one; wood. As soon as you spawn in Valheim, you want to
punch the small trees and collect some wood, which will allow you to make all
of, but not limited to, the following:


 * Workbench
 * Walls and roofs
 * Club
 * Hammer
 * Chests


2. STONE

It goes without saying, but alongside punching trees at the start of the game,
make sure you're also picking up loose stones. This will unlock various stone
tools for you to use.

 * Stone axe
 * Stone pickaxe


3. FLINT

Flint is another core ingredient that you can acquire early on. It spawns on the
ground along beaches, so just run to the nearest coast and pick up as many as
you can. This will get you some more weapons and tools.

 * Flint spear
 * Flinthead arrows
 * Flint axe


4. LEATHER SCRAPS/DEER HIDE

Both Leather Scraps and Deer Hide come under the same header because the two go
hand in hand. You obtain them by killing boars and deer respectively, and
they're vital for crafting early game armor, weapons, tools, and more.

 * Boats
 * Leather armor
 * Bows


5. BRONZE

Bronze is made by smelting Copper and Tin Ore, then combining the ingots at a
rate of two Copper to one Tin. This is what you need for all bronze weapons and
armor, along with the all-important Cultivator, used for farming. You can only
start mining Copper and Tin when you've defeated Eikthyr, the first boss.

 * Bronze weapons
 * Bronze armor
 * Cultivator


6. CORE/FINE WOOD

Core Wood can be found exclusively from Pine Trees in the Black Forest, while
Fine Wood is found exclusively from Birch and Oak Trees in Meadows. Both are
used for crucial building parts and tools, including Portals.

 * Portal
 * Log poles
 * Ward
 * Stagbreaker


7. IRON

Scrap Iron can be found from Muddy Scrap Piles in the Swamp biome, which is
where you'll need to head after defeating the second boss, The Elder. Smelt it
to make Iron, which is a step up above Bronze, and is used for all manner of
weapons, armor, and tools.

 * Iron axe
 * Iron longsword
 * Iron scale mail
 * Stone cutter


8. SILVER

Once you've defeated Bone Mass in the Swamp, you'll need to head to the
Mountains, where you can mine Silver Ore with an Iron Pickaxe. Smelt it to get
Silver, which is a step up on Iron, and needed for plenty of better gear.

 * Frostner
 * Silver sword
 * Wolf armor


9. BLACK METAL

After you've killed Moder in the mountains, you can head to the Plains biome and
kill Fulings to obtain Black Metal Scrap. Smelt it in a Blast Furnace and you'll
get Black Metal Bars, which is the strongest material in the game at this stage.
Although, as an early access game with more areas and biomes on the way, that
could change at anytime with future updates. Again, it's mainly used for
weapons, tools, and armor.

 * Black Metal sword
 * Black Metal axe
 * Black Metal shield

Give me a game and I will write every "how to" I possibly can or die trying.
When I'm not knee-deep in a game to write guides on, you'll find me hurtling
round the track in F1, flinging balls on my phone in Pokemon Go, pretending to
know what I'm doing in Football Manager, or clicking on heads in Valorant.
