With nothing but your wits and the materials available on the small islands you'll encounter, it does become very usefu🀅l to know how to quickly craft certain items in Stranded Deep. Lashing iꦺs a material that you can craft which can be used to make other items you'll need to help you survive.
Step 1 - Make A Rock Tool
To get the materials to make Lashing you first need to make a Stone Tool.
If you do not have this already, then you need to search around the island you are on for a Stone.
- You need one Stone.
They are not the big rocks laying around the islands, but the medium-sized rocks that look like big pebbles.
- When you walk over to one, you will be prompted to pick it up.
- Once you have picked this up, you need to open your Crafting list (R1 for PlayStation gamers).
- Here you will see a list of items you can craft — you need to highlight the Stone Tool.
- Once you have highlighted that, click the craft button ( X for PlayStation gamers).
Step 2 - Look For A Yucca Tree
- Now you need to look for a Yucca Tree.
Yucca Trees look like thinner and smaller versions of Palm Trees.
Tip: You can make Lashing with Palm Saplings but this will take you a lot longer.
When you think you have found a Yucca Tree, walk up to it and the game should tell you the name of the tree.
- Then you need to open your Backpack (quick tap L1 for PlayStation gamers).
- You will see the Stone Tool in your inventory.
- Highlight this and equip it.
Step 3 - Hack Away At The Yucca
- Once you have the Stone Tool equipped, you need to walk up to the trunk of the Yucca.
- When you are in front of it, you need to use the attack/use button (R2 for PlayStation gamers) to hit the tree using your tool.
Tip: The same rule applies for Saplings but you'll need to crouch down to hit these.
After a few hits, the tree will drop Fibrous Leaves.
- You need to collect 4 of these to make Lashing.
Step 4 - Craft Your Lashing
- When you have 4 Fibrous Leaves, open your crafting menu again.
- Highlight the Lashing slot.
- Hit the craft button.
Now you'll have Lashing in your Backpack, and you can use it make other survival materials!
