Check the main regions first, workbenches are pretty spread out. Mystery lake's got three spots - camp office carter dam and trappers homestead, all solid choices. Over in coastal highway youll find them at quonset and the fishing camp, both decent spots with good storage. Pleasant valley keeps things simple with the farmstead and signal hill both giving you crafting options.
Moving to the tougher regions timberwolfs got one at mountaineers hut while desolation point gives you two choices with the riken ship and hibernia. The forge at old spence in forlorn muskeg is crucial for metalworking, and broken railroad's maintenance shed is pretty straightforward to reach.
Tip: some spots need a bit more work to access like the cannery workshop in bleak inlet and blackrocks prison workshop, might want to gear up before heading there. Basic crafting works anywhere through the field menu but for serious stuff like tools, clothing, and ammo youll definitely need these workbenches.
Remember, wolves tend to hang around some of these locations, so pack some defense just in case. Most benches are in sheltered spots though, which is nice when youre crafting longer projects.
THE LONG DARK is a thoughtful, exploration-survival experience that challenges solo players to think for themselves as they explore an expansive frozen wilderness in the aftermath of a geomagnetic disaster. There are no zombies -- only you, the cold, and all the threats Mother Nature can muster.
