How to craft a bow and arrows in Hytale

The world of Hytale is a dangerous place, and you’ll quickly learn that dealing with threats from a safe distance is a lot safer than getting in close and personal.

If you’re even a little familiar with survival games, you already know where I’m going with this. You can craft a Bow and Arrows in Hytale, and getting the materials you need to make them is easier than you’d think.

How to craft a bow in Hytale

To make a bow, you’ll need to make a Worktable first. Hytale has multiple tiers of Worktable, but the first works just fine. I found more than enough resources to craft a Worktable around my spawn point, so you shouldn’t have too much trouble here.

Once you’ve got a functioning worktable, you can craft a Bow. To do this, you’ll need four Sticks and six bundles of Plant Fiber. Stricks can be found in piles on the ground, but they can also drop when you chop down a tree, so craft a Handaxe if you haven’t already.

Plant Fiber drops from cut grass, and you don’t even need a weapon to do the job. That said, Plant Fiber seemed to drop more when I used a Sword, so I’d recommend using one.

Once you have everything you need, head back to the Worktable and use the crafting menu to make yourself a Bow!

How to make Arrows in Hytale

Arrows are a unique craft in Hytale, so you’ll want to make a few before you go out to sharpen your archery skills. Thankfully, they’re easy to make.

All you need to make an Arrow is four Sticks and one chunk of Any Rubble. We’ve already gone over how to find the Sticks, and Rubble is literally lying around all over the place waiting for you to pick it up. You automatically craft four arrows at a time, so you’ll have a full quiver in no time.

How to use the Bow and Arrows in Hytale

Archery is a lot more complicated than hand-to-hand combat, but it’s a skill worth mastering. To knock an Arrow into the Bow, hold down the right mouse key. If you charge your shot long enough, the attack will do extra damage, and you can deal even more if you hit an enemy who hasn’t seen you.

In case you do need help with the specifics, here’s how to find Rubble in Hytale.

The Hi, Doggy quest not only has a funny name, but it’s a rather interesting task to complete in Quarantine Zone: The Last Check.

The Hi, Doggy is a relatively early game quest that you can unlock on day 10. It’s a core campaign quest, so there’s no way of skipping it (unless you’re playing in the Endless mode). This guide will help you figure out how to feed your zombie.

How to start Hi, Doggy quest in Quarantine Zone: The Last Check

The quest begins at the start of day 10 when the major briefs you about what needs to be done. When you’re in the early game, there’s not much you can do with a zombie in Quarantine. However, this quest will introduce you to the Cage in the Laboratory.

The Cage can contain an undead and allow you to study for research. You’ll find the Cage to the right of the main lab tent (from where you can discover new symptoms). Your next task is to feed the zombie. Head straight from the lab gates, and you’ll end up in front of the locked zombie.

How to feed the zombie in Hi, Doggy quest

This task is pretty simple. Go to the Liquidation zone, where you send the infected to be chopped. You’ll find a marked area by the pile of bags. Pick up a body bag, put it on the card, and go back to the laboratory tent. If you can’t pick up the body, chances are that the cart isn’t close enough. Interact with the cart and bring it closer to the body bags.

Park the cart next to the Cage, and interact with the body bag carrying the corpse. Pick it up, and put it in the Cage, and the zombie will start to eat. This will complete the Hi, Doggy quest. Make sure to put the cart in the highlighted zone so that the corpse can be fed to the zombie trapped inside.
