Hides

Hides can be harvested by characters by defeating Beasts. These pieces of animal hide have a chance to drop from those types of Creatures.

Foresters are able to process hides into leather by boiling them at a Workbench.

The following Professions can use the leather for materials in their own crafting recipes:

• Tailor
• Metalsmith
