Enshrouded is a gripping survival RPG that takes you down into the realms of Embervale, a land ravaged by the corrupting Shroud. As the last hope—Flameborn—you must fight, gather, and craft your way to survival. Crafting here means more than just weapons or tools; that crucial resource to further harden your defences or delve even deeper into this world is resin.
Resin is one of the most multi-talented crafting materials and is used for making a great deal of significant things inside of the Enshrouded. From fortifying your base's defences to crafting torches and even magical equipment, the resin is a critical material in Enshrouded. Now, let's look at the various ways through which we could source resin and how we can put it to good use in the fight for our survival.

Tapping into Nature's Bounty: Finding Resin in Enshrouded
While not as common as some things, there are places all over the world of Embervale where you can find resin. Here's where to keep your eyes peeled:
Temperate Forests: These are good areas for collecting resin. Look for trees with yellow, orange, or red leaves; generally, these will drop resin more frequently than their green-leaved counterparts.
Longkeep Hills: Just outside your starting haven in Longkeep, you'll find several trees with orange leaves near the Abandoned Campsite. These offer a reliable early-game source of resin.
General Exploration: Take note while you travel through the different areas of Enshrouded for any bright-coloured, non-green-leaved trees. Chances are these drop resin when felled.
How to Farm Enshrouded Resin
Many call it the best way to discover resin out there: just going out and exploring, but in these ways, you could possibly optimize your resin collection.
Prioritize the Right Trees: Focus on chopping down trees with yellow, orange, or red leaves. These have a significantly higher chance of dropping resin compared to green trees.
Size Matters: Typically bigger trees have a larger amount of resources that can be yielded, including resin. Small trees with the right leaf color can still drop resin but it tends to be a better use of your time to focus on the larger trees.
Logging Out and In: Enshrouded makes use of a server-side world. What that means is, you can log out and then back in to reset resources within your immediate surroundings. Take advantage of that by finding a good cluster of resinous rich trees, chop them down, log out and log back in to find them re-spawned and ready for another harvest.
Crafting from Gum Secretions into Handy Objects: Working with Resin in Enshrouded
Now you've got your resin, it is time to put it to good use. Here is a sneak peek into what you can make with resin:
Base Defenses: Resin is the crucial element needed for building key base defences like Palisades and Gates to keep unwanted visitors from entering your haven.
Torches: Resin allows for torches to be crafted, so it is easy for a person to explore the dark caves and dungeons to reveal hidden treasures, as well as hazards.
Advanced Crafting: Resin is used to craft many magical items, strong weapons, and several high-tier armour sets.
While this is pretty rare, you may find trace amounts of resin in chests or as a drop from enemies. For the most part, though, the only way to find more significant quantities of resin is to chop down trees with the right kind of foliage.
Any axe is good for gathering resin. You can make a basic axe with wood and stone early in the game. After that, you can make a stronger axe if you want to chop faster.
No, only yellow, orange and red leaves trees have a chance to drop resin. Most of the green trees just provide wood and other simple resources.
Currently, there is no in-game way to increase the amount of resin dropped by a single tree. However, by focusing on larger trees with the right leaf colour and using the log-out/log-in method, the overall rate of resin collection can be dramatically
improved.
Conclusion.
It might look like just a sticky substance, but resin is a pivotal component in the Enshrouded experience. Knowing where to find it, farming it efficiently, and what you can craft with it will put you in good stead to build up your defences, venture deeper into this world, and ultimately defeat the corruption of the Shroud.
