All Buildings & Building Upgrades In Windrose: How To Unlock Everything

Windrose opts for a slightly different approach to upgrading buildings in that, rather than upgrading the buildings themselves, you construct additional buildings that act as improvements to the primary 'crafting station'.

In this guide we'll run through every 'Crafting & Utility' building in Windrose, show you how to unlock every building upgrade/improvement and also list out what each building upgrade allows you to craft.

All Primary Crafting Buildings In Windrose

The table below lists out each of the primary crafting buildings in Windrose that you'll use to produce the various gear and consumables you need.
