Wood
Wood is one of the most important materials for beginners. Without wood, you won't be able to progress your game further. To collect wood you need an axe (chopping down trees) or you can find wood around the forest and spawn point.




Stone
Stone is another material which will be with us throughout the whole game. It is used to craft first weapons, used as a material for building stone houses (later in the game). Stone can be collected through using a pickaxe or stoneaxe (stoneaxe gives less materials) on rocks to extract stone and iron ore (really useful later on in the game). Also stone can be found around the world.




Fibrous Plant
Fibrous Plant is one of the most important materials at the start of the game. When running around the world make sure to collect it, as it doesn't weigh too much but it will be useful later on to make thread which can be used to make clothes and different important objects.




Animal Skin
Animal Skin can be gained by killing different animals. Currently there are only 6 animals available but as the game will progress I'm sure there will be more joining the world of Valnir Rok. There are 3 types of animals we can find, neutral, neutral-aggressive and aggressive.
Neutral: Rabbit, Goat, Deer (Those animals will runaway from you when you try to attack them or get too close to them)
Neutral-Aggressive: Boar (It will only hit you back if you attack it first - better to avoid it as a new player)
Aggressive: Wolf, Bear (Those animals will attack you on sight, wolfs are a bit difficult to kill as a newbie but not impossible, with a bear its more difficult as it does a lot of damage and I would advice to avoid both of those animals!)

I won't go into much detail on how to create every single thing as it would take ages and its not fun without discovering it yourself but I will show you the basic items which I think should be shown to newbies.

Tools (Pickaxe, Stoneaxe, Knife)

Pants (Cloth + Leather Strip)

Leather Bag (Useful as you can collect more materials)

Thread (Used to make cloth and other useful items)

Boots, Shirt and other (To craft these you need to discover them yourself, but in most cases you need thread, leather, leather strip etc.)

This is the end of this guide, I know its short and not as detailed but I just wanted to enlighten those who have problems with getting into the game. If you want any information or want me to create more of such guides, then don't be afraid to add me on steam or try and hit me up on the game if you can find me. :)

Thanks guys and enjoy your very own adventure in the Viking world.
