DREADMOOR Crafting Recipes
Four recipe families, workbench assembly, and the shared torn-page currency.
Crafting in DREADMOOR is built around an in-game workbench where components are physically placed, not picked from a menu. The four families — bait, harpoons, medicines, and survival tools — share the same torn-page currency, so any unlock competes for the same budget.

Recipe families
The workbench covers four families:
- Specialised bait for each encounter type. See the best bait guide.
- Reinforced harpoons, including five elemental variants.
- Rare medicines for poison, blood loss, stamina and direct healing.
- Survival tools shaped by the harsh realities of the Submerged Lands.
Recipes unlock as components are gathered, wrecks are explored and blueprints are found. Higher-tier recipes draw on scrap metal and forgotten blueprints, so exploration directly unlocks the next tier of crafting.
Workbench assembly
- Open the workbench and pick the recipe you want to build.
- Place the required components on the bench surface.
- The recipe panel highlights the missing ingredient if the assembly is not yet complete.
- Confirm the recipe when the bench shows every component in place.
This physical placement makes crafting deliberate — assemblies are checked at the bench before they can be saved or used.
Harpoon variants in the recipe list
The workbench recipe list shows five elemental harpoons. They are the most expensive combat-crossover recipes because the input is two items — a base Harpoon plus one alchemical component — but each unlocks a tool that works both as fishing tackle and as a weapon. See the DREADMOOR harpoon crafting guide for the full recipe table and counter-strategy notes.
FAQ
What currency is shared between fishing and ship upgrades?
Torn pages are the shared currency for both the Fishing Skill Tree and the Ship Upgrade Skill Tree in DREADMOOR, so unlocks compete for the same finite pool.
