Gather Resources
Make sure as you progress through the game you pick up as many of the different resources you come across as possible. This includes cutting down trees, rock mining, and herb gathering. You will never know when you will need what you have come across and it will help increase your gathering skills. Following the Black Spirit quests and gaining rewards is an efficient method to gain resources as well. Once you reach Skill 5 in logging, foraging, or mining, you will be able to send your workers out for as long as four hours, which can be very useful early in the game.
Craft Items
As long as you have the required resources you can craft equipment, potions, and trade goods at your camp with your craft skills. Povided they are not already assigned to a different task you can get your workers to help you craft items by pressing 'Craft' which will allow you to view craftable items and their required resources.
