If you remember playing and enjoying the 2018 survival game, The Forest, then you must have had your hands on Sons of the Forest, its sequel. Developed by Endnight Games and published by Newnight, the game is available on PC via Early Access on Steam. In the game, players are tasked with surviving on the island called Site 2, and it’s not an easy job. You will have to build shelters, craft weapons, and fight your way through in order to complete your mission. For this, you will need to have all the weaponry at your disposal. Now, one of the weapons in the game that you can get relatively easily is the good old bow and arrow. In this guide, we will teach you how to craft stone arrows in Sons of the Forest.
If surviving on an unknown island wasn’t already a difficult task, the island is infested with menacing mutants. These vicious creatures will charge at you and try to decimate you at the slightest of possibilities. Therefore, you have to keep yourself prepared and equipped with different weapons to fight off these mutants. And when it comes to weaponry, stone arrows are a decent option. These basic-level arrows can help you fight off the mutants early in the game, and they’re also easy to craft. As you progress in the game, you’ll be able to craft other types of arrows as well. However, here, we will only focus on these stone arrows and how to craft them in the game.
Sons of the Forest: How to craft/make Stone Arrows?
Stone arrows are pretty easy to craft. However, you have to make sure that you have all the required items in your inventory before you start crafting. You will need the following items in order to craft stone arrows in the game: 4x small rocks, 2x sticks, and 2x feathers.
- Rocks: You can find small rocks shattered all around the map. All you need to do is simply locate these on the ground and pick them up. However, if you’re having a hard time finding small rocks, consider heading over to the beach, as this is where you’ll find a large number of these small rocks all over the ground.
- Sticks: Similar to the small rocks, you can find sticks lying on the ground if you search enough. However, you can also collect sticks by chopping them off of the trees.
- Feathers: Feathers can be found near the carcasses of dead birds. You can also hunt a few birds down to collect feathers.
Once you have all of these items available, open your inventory by pressing the I key. Locate the items and right-click on them to drag them to the cogwheel (crafting wheel). Following this, simply hit the Gear icon to craft the stone arrows. You can repeat this process a few times to have access to a handful of arrows. The good thing about stone arrows is that they don’t usually go to waste. You can pick these up from the ground or from the corpses of your enemies after you’ve used them. Considering their accessibility and ease of crafting, stone arrows are definitely a great piece of weaponry.
Well, this is how you can craft Stone Arrows in Sons of the Forest. Hopefully, you will find this guide helpful when you’re expanding your weapon inventory in the game. If you enjoyed reading this guide and want more such gaming-related content, stay tuned to DigiStatement!
