How To Make Twine In Nightingale

All crafting materials serve a purpose in Nightingale, though some are more valuable than others. In order to begin making significant upgrades to your weapons and tools, you'll need to build an Upgrade Bench, which requires Twine. 

The problem is that Twine isn't a material you can just find on the ground, but rather one you'll need to craft. Below, we'll go over exactly what you'll need to do to make yourself some Twine and progress through Nightingale's story.

How To Craft Twine In Nightingale

The secret to making Twine in Nightingale is to first build a Simple Spinning Wheel. This schematic can be purchased from an Essence Trader, which you'll need to seek out on your current Realm. If you find yourself running low on Essence, remember you can break down certain materials and Extract the Essence from them. The type of Essence you Extract depends on the quality/tier of the material.

Once you've purchased the Simple Spinning Wheel, you'll need the following materials in order to build it:

• x3 Wood Bundles
• x15 Fiber
• x1 Bone

Now, with the Simple Spinning Wheel built, it's time to make some Twine. To do this, you'll need just two pieces of any Fiber to craft one piece of Twine. 

What Is Twine Used For In Nightingale?

The are two particularly useful reasons to craft Twine in Nightingale. The first is to build yourself an Upgrade Bench, which will allow you to apply various upgrades to your tools that will make them more powerful or efficient. 

The second is to craft Charms, which will embue your tools and weaponry with various effects. These Charms can be applied to uncommon or higher gear, which you'll need in order to obtain a higher Gear Score and access more dangerous Realms and areas.

From the Spinning Wheel alone, you can craft four Charm Twine: Eye, Hand, Heart, and Mind. Each of these Charms benefits an element of your survival:

Charm Twine (Eye)

• x1 Twine
