Dragonwilds Brynmoor & Ghornfell Guide
Progress through Dragonwilds' opening regions, early quests, bronze and iron equipment, poison hazards, and Dragon Slayer.

Brynmoor teaches the main survival loop: gather, shelter, cook, craft, skill, and quest. Ghornfell then asks you to apply it across harsher terrain and dangerous subregions such as Bloodblight Swamp.
Progression goals
- Establish a compact, expandable base.
- Unlock thread, leather, bronze, iron, cooking, runecrafting, and dependable repairs.
- Level several skills rather than only your favourite weapon.
- Complete the early named-character quests and follow the Dragon Slayer arc.
- Carry antipoison when a route enters Bloodblight's toxic environment.
- Gather enough spare early materials to support Farming, building, and later station upgrades.
Do not rush Dragon Slayer with outdated gear. A repaired full kit, food, runes, and a safe ranged option matter more than reaching the arena a few levels earlier.
