Tree branches are a very common ressource in Night of the Dead. They are used in a lot of different ways. Tree branches are needed to build most of the tools, weapons, traps and even some materials. You also need these a lot to reload traps or to craft ammunition for the Bow, Crossbow or Ranged traps. Tree branches can be obtained by felling trees or chopping down bushes. They also can be made from Vine at the Material production table.
