Rescuing the Hunter NPC
Before embarking on the journey to upgrade your backpack, there is a crucial task that demands your attention. The Hunter NPC, Athalan Skree, is in need of rescue from her eternal slumber. To initiate this rescue, players must first rescue the Blacksmith and complete a series of quests to unlock the mission to climb several Ancient Spires. This endeavor will unveil new points of interest, including the location of the Hunter.
Once you reach the Hunter's resting place, awaken her and summon her back to the base. By doing so, players gain access to the Hunter's quests and her crafting capabilities, setting the stage for the next crucial steps in upgrading the backpack.
Crafting Backpack Upgrades
Upon delving into the Hunter's crafting recipes, players will discover the essential ingredients required to enhance their backpacks. These ingredients include Animal Fur, Torn Cloth, Dried Fur, Linen, and String. While some of these resources may be familiar, acquiring Dried Fur poses a more challenging task and necessitates the use of the Drying Rack and Salt.
Completing the Hunter's quest and obtaining Salt will enable players to produce Dried Fur using the Drying Rack. With this resource in hand, players can craft the Small Backpack using Torn Cloth x 3, Dried Fur x 4, and String x 5. Additionally, the Medium Backpack can be crafted using Dried Fur x 6 and Linen x 6. Equipping these upgraded backpacks at the Character screen will grant players a larger inventory space, reducing the need for frequent returns to base during resource-gathering expeditions.
