The Glider lets you drop from a high point and cover ground fast, and later versions carry you farther. There are four of them in all, each a step up in rarity and item level. You craft the first one yourself, then unlock better ones as you gather new materials and rescue the Carpenter.
Quick answer: The Glider takes 8 Shroud Wood, 2 Animal Fur, 2 String, and 2 Shroud Spores at a Workbench. The recipe shows up once you own a Workbench and have picked up any of those materials.
Its in-game description reads: “The possibility to fly has always been a desirable trait. Press [key] whilst in the air to open the Glider. Using the wind currents and the height of the starting point, it can be used to travel great distances in an instant.”
Craft the first Glider at a Workbench
The Blacksmith points you toward this item with the “Glider” quest, which says: “Crafting a Glider will allow you to reach distant locations or to cross enshrouded valleys unharmed. It can be crafted at a Workbench from Shroud Wood. You can aquire Shroud Wood by venturing beneath the Shroud. Be wary of consuming Stamina while using the Glider to reach new locations.”
The four Glider tiers
Each Glider sits at a higher rarity and item level than the last. The Advanced and Extraordinary Gliders are crafted by the Carpenter once they have a sheltered bed; the Ghost Glider is found first, then the Carpenter can craft more.
| Glider | Rarity | Item level | Where to craft |
|---|---|---|---|
| Glider | Uncommon | 5 | Workbench |
| Advanced Glider | Rare | 10 | Carpenter |
| Extraordinary Glider | Epic | 20 | Carpenter |
| Ghost Glider | Legendary | 30 | Found, then Carpenter |
Advanced Glider
The Advanced Glider takes 6 Shroud Wood, 4 Linen, 4 String, and 8 Shroud Sack, crafted at the Carpenter. Its description reads: “This Glider is lighter and enables you to travel bigger distances.”
Extraordinary Glider
At the Carpenter, make the Extraordinary Glider with 4 Shroud Wood, 2 Leather, 2 Linen, and 15 Shroud Adhesive. Collect Leather to unlock its recipe, then craft it there. Its description reads: “This Glider will allow you to travel extraordinarily long distances.”
Ghost Glider
The Ghost Glider is found rather than crafted the first time. Once you have it, the Carpenter can make more from 3 Shroud Wood, 2 Fabric, 4 Enshrouded Oil, 1 Sulfur, and 1 String. Its description reads: “A formidable Glider which can cross even the deepest trenches, allowing you to rain death from above.”
