Wood is a frequently used material in Dark Sail, and it is the most basic material in the game. We use wood when building and upgrading ships. It can be said that wood is a necessity for players in the game. So how do you get wood in Dark Sail? Since wood is so important, how do we obtain it? Below, I will share with you the methods of obtaining wood.

Wood in Dark Sail is the easiest item to obtain among all items; you just need to salvage it. When sailing in coastal waters, if bubbles appear on the sea surface, there might be wood inside these bubbles.
Drive your ship towards where the bubbles are appearing on the sea. Once you reach the location, interaction with the bubbles will be automatically triggered, and you can start salvaging right away.

Not all bubbles contain wood. During the salvaging process, you also need to identify whether the bubble actually contains wood. The identification method is to scan the shadow of the item being salvaged. If the scan shows that it is wood, simply click the pull button, and the wood will be pulled out from the sea.
After pulling the wood out from the sea mud, the game interface will show three buttons: Drop, Rotate, and Discard. You can adjust the direction of the wood by clicking the Rotate button. After adjusting the direction, just click Drop, and the wood will be added to your inventory.

Although wood is the most common resource in the game, not all areas have an abundance of wood. If players want to obtain a large amount of wood, it's best to go to fixed locations such as the Dock, Steel Cape, and the entrance of Little Marrow. I recommend going to Steel Cape and the Dock, as there are three spots at these two places where you can find a lot of wood. Although other places may also have wood, I don't recommend salvaging there.
Since not all bubbles contain wood, don't be disappointed if you salvage something else. You can try salvaging multiple times, and make sure to scan during the salvaging process.

The above are the answers to how to obtain wood in Dark Sail. If you feel that you don't have enough wood, you can go to the three locations I provided to salvage. Of course, while salvaging, if you find that the bubbles do not contain wood but other items, you can salvage them if they are useful. If not, just choose to abandon the salvage.
