Sons of the Forest, How to Build a Skull Lamp:
In Sons of the Forest, you have the freedom to build your base however you want. If you’re going to build a big one for you and your friends, you may wish to add some decorations.
For this, you’ll need to make some Skull Lamps, that you’re able to put all over your base to appear badass. In Sons of the Forest, this guide will demonstrate the steps for creating a Skull Lamp.
To Make A Skull Lamp:
Sons of the Forest doesn’t tell you what to do, but it does give you a Crafting Book with recipes. You can build walls, gates, Fish Traps, and much more with this.
Book Has Recipe For Skull Lamp But It’s Hard One:
The book also has the recipe for a Skull Lamp, but it can be hard for players to understand. In the book, it seems like you need a skull, a stick, and a piece of cloth in your inventory to create it, but that’s not true.
You’ve probably already used Basic Fire or Reinforced Fire at least once in the game. You’ll need a few more things to make the Sons of the Forest Skull Lamp.
- 2x Stick: Stick are all over the ground, but you are able to utilize your Axe equip it from your inventory. With the Axe equipped, start cutting down small trees or bushes & pick up any Sticks that have fallen to the ground.
- Skull: The quickest way to find a Skull is to look inside caves & see if there are any bones lying around.
In Sons of the Forest, you’ll need to put these items together in the right order to make a Skull Lamp.
Procedure Of Build Skull Lamp:
In Sons of the Forest, you need to put a stick in the ground before you can make a Skull Lamp. To do this, you need to equip the stick, look directly at the ground, press right-click to have a tiny white dotted circle appear, and afterwards press left-click to place the stick.
Then, open your inventory, put a piece of cloth on your character, & put it on the stick. The final step is to open your inventory again and put on the Skull. By hovering over the stick, you can put it on top of it. The Skull Lamp would then catch fire on its own, so you don’t need a lighter.
If You Want To Relocate The Skull Lamp:
You need to hit the Skull Lamp with a melee weapon if you want to relocate it. This would destroy the lamp, as well as the skull will be on the ground for you to pick up. You could only grab the skull & stick, though, because the cloth will be destroyed.
