Woodmaker dryad

Woodmaker

A slow, bumbling caste of dryad which specializes in wood production. Together with its Gauranlen tree, this dryad can generate a wood-like material on an ongoing basis. However, it is slow and ineffective at work or combat.
In general, dryads are mammal-like creatures that have a symbiotic relationship with the Gauranlen tree. They reproduce together with their tree, which contains a hidden dryad queen. Dryads can morph into various specialized castes.

AnimalDryad

Woodmakers are a caste of Dryads, a type of animal added by the Ideology DLC.

Generates wood x32 every two days. Maintaining 4 woodmaker dryads requires between 8.2 (Skill 0, non-Connection ideoligion) and 3.6 (Skill 20, connection ideoligion) in-game hours of pruning per day. Or between 20,500 ticks (5.69 mins) and 9,000 ticks (2.5 mins) for 64 wood. In comparison, for the same yield:

• Fibercorn requires 15,040 ticks (4.18 mins)
• Timbershroom requires 12,288 ticks (3.41 mins)
• Cypress tree requires 6,186.67 ticks (1.72 mins)

Note however, that these are base times and base yields. Plant Work Speed significantly affects the amount of work required, with low skill retarding rates until level 8, and high skill or the use of a field hand drastically improving upon the listed numbers. Additionally, Plant Harvest Yield negatively affects yields below skill 8, and increases it above. Both factors, as well as plant selection are relevant in deciding if woodmakers are a useful option.

For example, if restricted to work-inefficient fibercorn, a healthy pawn requires a plants skill of at least 6 to produce as much wood/work as a skill 0 pawn maintaining 4 woodmakers, while with Plants skill of 14 planting and harvesting the fibercorn produces more wood per unit-work than a skill 20 pruner. More analysis on various options is needed for generalsations to be made however.
