Yes i’m talking about the tree you cut down for wood.

What exactly is a Tukawa and other odd tree names? Google only gives me resource node images and map site and wiki entry for this node.

I’m also getting anime fan art of some guys and girls by the name Tukawa oddly enough.

I’m not getting any real world example on Google? Did Anet make up all our tree names?

attempt the translator instead of looking for web searches.
Apparently the only Tukawa in languages Google can translate is in Swahili and is “Courteously” in English.
So you will be courteously harvesting your logs from that tree I suppose.

I find it more weird that we’re only cutting down the saplings and not the grown-up trees. I think a few of foresters might have a word with whoever thought about that.

I find it humorous that hard wood trees give you Soft Wood Logs and soft wood trees give you Hard Wood Logs.

I also find it humorous that saplings give you Elder Wood Logs.

And that the ancient wood saplings look to me like the dead stumps of mature trees, not saplings.

Timberlines falls has a river running through it that apparently comes from snow melt, from the Far Shiverpeaks. It’s fresh water, but there is coral there, and fish that would only normally be found in salt water oceans.

The really weird part about this is the name of one of the areas on that map, NAUI Waters. NAUI is The National Association of Underwater Instructors, so I would assume that someone on the dev team would have a clue about what actually lives in what types of water.
