Woodland Walk Region
- Welcome to the new region where you will start to encounter new type of trees (Mesquite Trees) and animals like Boars. A whole new set of items and food can also be gathered from here on. Good Luck!Hunting Boars
- Use your Upgraded Advanced Slingshots to hunt Boars (4x Hits with 2x drops), or buy some Composite Slingshots (2x Hits) from camp sites around here.
Chopping Mesquite Trees
- The easiest way is to buy multiple Logger's Axe from traders around here, or if you feel lucky, just wait for someone to chop them down for you.
Update on Food to Focus On
- Apples are somewhat scarce here, so either buy them from other traders and continue crafting Cookies, or just use all of your Wheat Grasses for crafting Bread. Also buy some Wheat Grass from traders when you get the chance.
- Continue and buy or gather Raw Meat and Rock Salt for your Jerky recipe.
- Reminder: Watch out for your Food Weight, just carry around 30 Weight for now to avoid faster Stamina drain.
Start Hoarding Eggs
- From here on, gather and save all Eggs that you encounter along the way (also drops from Mesquite trees), and from trading. Use them to craft Omelettes. Conserve your food because this is the last Food recipe that you can easily make.
- Omelettes restores 4 Hearts by default.
Omelettes, Peach Cakes and Sausages
- You will also start to encounter these types of Food from trading, buy them if you want, then store them into your Private Chests for later use.

Salesbury Swamp Region
