To get goldenwood logs in Hytale, cleaving some gilded trees in the lovely autumn forest won’t do; instead, you must travel to the least inviting region on the map. But even if you’re brave enough to make the journey, locating a goldenwood tree isn’t easy, as only a specific, rare kind of tree will suffice.
So, before you chop half a forest of the wrong tree species, here’s where to find goldenwood in Hytale.
Where to find goldenwood in Hytale
To obtain goldenwood in Hytale, you must find and chop a sallow tree, which only spawns in Zone 4, the Devastated Lands. This is the volcanic region, recognizable by its dark grey colors on the map. You might want to grab some adamantite ore, too, while you’re there.
Sallow trees look like large, yellow-green willows. They typically spawn in the slightly greener areas in the Devastated Lands; the parts that look yellow-brown rather than grey. You’re unlikely to find more than one to three sallow trees within the same swath of land, but thanks to their size, one sallow tree easily yields a few dozen goldenwood logs.
Don’t confuse the sallow tree with the Devastated Lands’ yellow mushroom trees. Although they look very different in person, their map icons are devilishly similar, so be careful not to hike a few miles only to arrive at the wrong type of tree. Here’s an example of the correct tree icon, with the sallow tree that yields goldenwood logs on the left side of the picture, and the incorrect tree on the right.
Try to remember that the goldenwood tree is greener, less yellow.
The Hytale goldenwood logs are especially useful if you wish to upgrade the farmer’s workbench. After reaching tier 7, which required softwood, lightwood, and darkwood (among others), you must offer 60 goldenwood logs to reach tier 8 and unlock palm saplings, eternal onions and potatoes, bamboo planters, and the iron hoe tool. Goldenwood logs can also be used to craft goldenwood building materials, including fences to expand an animal farm.
