Advanced Tannery

About the Advanced Tannery

The Advanced Tannery is the higher-tier leather processing station: the step above the base Tannery, turning hides into the leather line that ranged and hybrid builds climb from Power Level 4 up (dire wolf → draconic → cursed → scorch leather tiers).

Its build cost reflects the mid-game timing — 12 Yew Logs, 4 Mithril Bars and 2 Desert Thread — and it grants 12 Construction XP when placed. Yew comes off the sawmill line, Mithril Bars off the Dowdun Reach mining route, so this station usually lands mid-way through the Ghornfell-to-Dowdun stretch.

If your ranged or hybrid character is queuing at the base Tannery, this is the upgrade that clears the bottleneck.
