How to Get Core Wood in Valheim
Posted on by
You’ll find out that you can gather wood by picking up branches on the ground as soon as you spawn into the realm of Valheim. But progressing through the game means you must also collect stronger wood to support stronger constructions, in particular, this means eventually moving up to using Core Wood.
If you're ready to take the venture and gather this more sturdy resource, here's where you can find Core Wood in Valheim, what you'll need to gather it, and what it's useful for.
Travel to the Black Forest biome and chop Pine trees to collect Core Wood. However, you must use a Stone Axe or a higher-tier axe to cut these trees to gather this type of wood. Craft this tool by accessing the player crafting menu and using 5x Wood and 4x Stone.

Core Wood is a requirement for various crafting recipes in Valheim. The items you can craft range from tools to building materials.
