What to Know

  • To craft ladders, you must progress through two different crafting stations: the standard Workbench and the Builder's Workbench.
  • The primary raw materials needed are tree trunks (logs) and stone.
  • Ladders are used for vertical traversal; simply walk into them to climb up or down.

Ladders are essential for exploring vertical environments and navigating your multi-story builds in Hytale. Like doors and other processed wooden items, they require specific crafting stations to create.
