Seems a bit much. These 1000 logs are mostly going into 3 spiritwood planks, which are made from 50 planks each, which come from 200 logs each, or about 70 trees per spiritwood plank.

So take a copse of trees, turn it into a small house worth of planks, spread a glob of elder spirit residue on it, and I guess it shrinks the pile into one plank. Do it 2 more times. Then carve off 99% of to make one inscription to put on your weapon.

That’s not very ecofriendly.

Spiritwood planks are just multiplex plates created from the exact centre of a tree glued together with elder spirit residu.. Maybe.

There is no shame in fear of the dutchman.

And people thought it was Scarlet’s Tower of Nightmares that was the reason behind Kessex Hills’ deforestation.

I urge the rulers of Tyria to plant more forests of Gummo, Mimosa and Snow Cherry Saplings in order to battle the deforestation of Tyria.

In temperate mesic climates, natural regeneration of forest will not occur in the absence of disturbance. Deforestation is a contributor to global warming, reduces the content of water in the soil, groundwater as well as atmospheric moisture and may lead to extinction of many species.

Exactly, and that’s before you consider that you can only chop baby trees that are found rarely. Luckily they grow in a day and then stop. But now that Ive chopped down a forest for my inscription, I only need to demolish a mountain, smelt it into 50 bricks, add a little mithrilium, which vaporizes 90% of the ore, leaving one Delrimor ingot. Then melt 2 of those with some fairy dust and magic fire to make a hilt.

And then do it again for the blade.

On the positive side, chopping young trees is better than chopping old growth ones.

My Sylvari brothers and sisters have dubbed the day ascended weapons were released ‘The Reckoning’.

One thousand, nay a million voices full of fear.

if the tree grows back in an hour, I think it’s ok to cut down. pretty hard to extinct them when you can’t even get rid of a single one.

This is why the Elder dragons, who work for Greenpeace, are trying to wipe you all out. Notice that they recycle – bodies.

nonono… it doesnt shrink..

the glob applies an intense gravity to compress the wood like Fiber board making it as hard as a diamond.

Since tree’s are carbon based, it turns them into diamonds!

We only harvest the small, fast growing trees… the big ones are still there.

Part of me thinks that someone in ANet was thinking “hey, wanna see something funny? Watch this…”
