Tar FAQ
How do you get Tar in Valheim?
Tar is not crafted. It comes from Growth, Pickable Tar.
What are the stats of Tar in Valheim?

What is Tar used for in Valheim?
The things that consume it number 36, across Built with, Crafted into. That list is the honest answer to whether a stack is worth keeping: something with a single use is worth exactly one project, while something that feeds recipes, a station and a build piece at once is worth a dedicated chest.
