What Light Hide is used for

Light Hide is primarily required to craft a bedroll, which allows you to sleep and set a respawn point. This makes it one of the most important early survival materials, especially before you establish a permanent base.

As the game progresses, Light Hide may also be used in light leather processing and other crafting chains tied to early gear.

How to get Light Hide in Hytale

Explore nearby zones shortly after spawning and look for small wildlife. These animals are common and usually non-hostile.

Target animals such as pigs, piglilngs, and rabbits. These creatures are easy to defeat with basic weapons.

Defeat the animal. Light Hide does not drop every time, so you may need to hunt several creatures. Collect the dropped loot. If Light Hide drops, it will appear alongside other basic materials. Repeat the process until you have enough Light Hide to meet your crafting requirement.

Where to find Light Hide animals

Most Light Hide–dropping animals appear in early-game zones close to your spawn point. Open grasslands and forested areas are especially reliable for pigs and rabbits, while piglings may appear slightly farther from your starting area.

You don’t need to enter dangerous regions or dungeons to farm this material efficiently.

Crafting a bedroll with Light Hide

Once you’ve collected enough Light Hide, open your crafting interface or workbench. Locate the crude bedroll recipe.
