Talk:Logs

We should list the types of trees which drop each log for some of the more common logs (Oak and Pine, etc). I haven't done that much woodcutting so I'm not sure on this, but do they all follow the same formula? All the basic trees have their ordinary form, then a "bigger" form, and then an elder form? Does this apply to all of the trees, or just some of them? Someone who has more woodcutting experience can clear this up, maybe we can format this a bit better.

Trees only drop their log, an elder log version and then berries. I'm not sure if trees are limited to what berries they can drop. Bigger trees just drop more logs and seem to have a greater chance of dropping an Elder log. Plus they drop a bounty that usually gives some Dosh and an Elder Log.

I don't think the rarer logs have Elder variants. At least, not that I've found. E.g. the Earth tree in West Grassy Plains and the Fire Tree in the Magma cave. Though I have no idea what these logs are for so I can't check!

Might be worth saying "Oak logs are from Oak Trees, which can be found in ____" as some trees have multiple locations. Or perhaps each tree should have their own page that has information about it, possible drops, drop chances, locations, looks, related challenges, bounties, HP/skill required to log, etc.

For the elemental logs, I'm 99% sure that there's no elder version, since after unlocking their recipes as carpenter I only see the normal ones and no mention of elder ones. Given that they're not mentioned in the woodcutter challenges either I'm going to guess there's only the normal version (since it's the difficulty of an elder tree anyway).

I'm not sure we can do drop chances correctly given that it's dependent on the Luck stat. I think each category (as in Oak-tier Trees, Sugar-tier Trees, etc) of tree having its own page sounds pretty good though.
