Related Tool & Ability Score

Woodworking works using Woodcarver’s Tools. Attempting to craft items with Woodworking without these will almost always be made with disadvantage, and proficiency with these allows you to add your proficiency in them to any Woodworking crafting roll.

Crafting Roll

Putting that together means that when you would like to make an item, your crafting roll is as follows:

Woodworking Modifier = your Woodcarver’s Tools proficiency bonus + your Dexterity modifier

Success and Failure

For Woodworking, after you make the crafting roll and succeed, mark your progress on a crafting project. If you succeed, you make 10 minutes of progress toward the total crafting time (and have completed one of the required checks for making an item). Checks for Woodworking do not need to be immediately consecutive. Failure means that no progress is made during that time. Once an item is started, even if no progress is made, the components reserved for that item.

If you fail three times in a row, all progress and materials are lost and can no longer be salvaged.

Carved Branches

Woodworkers can increase the rarity of a branch through expert carving techniques. A wooden branch of higher quality produced through woodcarving can’t be used as the material to make a branch of even higher rarity, but otherwise a carved branch serves as a branch of their finished rarity for crafting (such as enchanting or other woodworking items that call for a branch of that rarity).

Effectively, carving the branch can only increase the rarity of a branch by one step.
