Project Gorgon Carpentry Guide
Carpentry in Project Gorgon lets players gather lumber and craft wooden items such as furniture, weapons, tools, and crafting equipment. It is one of the core trade skills used by several other professions, especially Toolcrafting and Fletching.
The skill revolves around collecting wood, processing it into materials, and crafting useful items at carpentry stations. Many recipes unlock through NPC trainers as your skill increases.
How Carpentry Works In Project Gorgon
Carpentry focuses on working with wood and lumber. Players gather wood from fallen trees and use it to craft wooden items.
To start gathering wood you need a tool.
Handsaw
Cutting Blade Necklace
Once you have one of these tools in your inventory, you can interact with fallen trees and gather logs.
These logs are then used at crafting stations to create furniture, crafting equipment, and some weapons.
Getting Your First Wood
Most players start gathering wood using a Handsaw. A Handsaw can be purchased from vendors such as Therese in Serbule.
With the tool in your inventory, fallen tree logs can be harvested throughout the world.
Important note for Beast Forms.
Regular animal forms cannot gather wood from tree falls, even if they have the Cutting Blade Necklace equipped. Players using Beast Forms must obtain wood in other ways.
Common alternatives include:
Buying wood from other players
Breaking down Treant Wood drops
Trading with NPCs such as Gretchen Salas
Using another humanoid character to gather lumber
Bird forms using Druid illusion can still gather wood because they appear humanoid.
Carpentry Trainers And Skill Caps
Several NPCs teach Carpentry recipes and increase the skill cap.
Jara in Serbule teaches the early Carpentry recipes. Players must help her deal with a bear problem before she begins training.
Paul Vaughn in Serbule Hills teaches several crafting recipes, including calligraphy bench items.
The Wombat in Sun Vale teaches wooden melee staffs, combat staffs, and wooden shoes designed for Cow and Deer Beast Forms.
Lamashu in the Kur Mountains teaches storage crate recipes and the Stake the Heart combat ability set.
Ufkar in Rahu teaches recipes related to Battle Chemistry staves.
Higher skill levels are unlocked by trainers as you progress.
Amutasa in Rahu unlocks levels 51 through 70
Solgribue unlocks levels 71 through 80
Dunahain Broadarm beneath Povus unlocks levels 81 through 90
These trainers allow players to continue advancing the Carpentry skill beyond early crafting tiers.
Items You Can Craft With Carpentry
Carpentry produces a wide variety of wooden items.
Common categories include:
Wooden furniture such as chairs and benches
Staff weapons used by combat skills
Crafting equipment and workstations
Storage crates and containers
Wooden shoes for certain Beast Forms
Some crafted items are decorative while others are required for crafting stations or combat builds.
Carpentry And Other Skills
Carpentry works closely with several other professions in Project Gorgon.
Important related skills include:
Toolcrafting which requires level 20 Carpentry
Fletching which uses many wooden components
Blacksmithing which provides metal parts for some recipes
Foraging which allows players to gather wood
Because of these connections, Carpentry often becomes part of larger crafting paths rather than a standalone profession.
Carpentry Synergy Bonuses
Several skills provide synergy bonuses that increase Carpentry effectiveness.
These bonuses come from reaching certain levels in other skills.
Examples include:
Blacksmithing level 45
Fletching levels 25 and 50
Hammer levels 11 and 41
Industry level 10
Plant Anatomy levels 10 and 50
Sigil Scripting level 20
Toolcrafting level 30
These synergies help improve crafting efficiency and support advanced crafting builds.
Carpentry Tools
Two tools allow players to gather wood.
Handsaw is the most common tool. It is purchased from vendors and used to harvest logs from tree falls.
Cutting Blade Necklace works the same way as a Handsaw but occupies the necklace equipment slot.
Both tools must simply be in your inventory to allow harvesting.
Tips For Leveling Carpentry
Always gather fallen logs while traveling through zones
Combine Carpentry with Foraging to maintain a steady wood supply
Train new recipes regularly from NPC trainers
Craft large batches of simple items for early experience
Watch for Treant Wood drops which can be broken down into lumber
These methods make leveling Carpentry smoother and reduce the need to buy materials from other players.
Final Thoughts On Carpentry
Carpentry is an important crafting profession in Project Gorgon that supports many other trade skills. From crafting wooden weapons to building furniture and workstations, the skill provides materials used across the entire crafting system.
Players who enjoy gathering resources and building useful items will find Carpentry a valuable skill to develop, especially when combined with Toolcrafting, Fletching, and Foraging.
