Obtaining Wood Acid in Enshrouded

Crafting and unlocking new recipes in Enshrouded is crucial for progressing through main quests and surviving challenging battles. One of the key early-game recipes is Wood Acid, which allows for the creation of various new items.

Below, we will outline the process to effortlessly craft Wood Acid in Enshrouded, detailing which NPC to engage and what you can produce afterward.

How to Craft Wood Acid in Enshrouded

You can start making Wood Acid relatively early in your gameplay. Follow these three steps:

  1. Unlock and set up the Blacksmith at your base by completing the Sleeping Survivor quest.
  2. Create and position the Charcoal Kiln at your base. You will need 20 Stones to craft it, which can be found on the ground or obtained by using your pickaxe on rocks.
  3. Produce your first batch of Charcoal in the Kiln.

Once you have crafted Charcoal for the first time, you will gain access to the Wood Acid recipe and can create it using the Kiln.

To switch from making Charcoal to Wood Acid in the Kiln, look through your recipes. The ingredients needed are listed below.

Resource Quantity Source
Wood Logs 15 Chop trees with an axe
Dirt 3 Dig in the ground with a pickaxe

Adding these resources into the Kiln will yield 10 units of Wood Acid, taking a total of seven minutes to complete the crafting process.
