In brief

Gunpowder is an essential resource in Windrose for powering your firearms. Early in your adventure, find it in pirate camps by searching supply crates, then craft it yourself once you've progressed further in the game using a grindstone and simple ingredients.

Adventurers in Windrose quickly discover that their survival isn't just about skill with a blade or a pistol. You need to know how to get your hands on gunpowder to keep your firearms running.

Where to find gunpowder

Early on in the adventure, you don't yet have the materials needed to craft gunpowder yourself. But many pirate camps scattered across the islands that populate this early part of the adventure are packed with resources. Gunpowder is one of them, especially if you focus on the supply crates.

Tip

To get around more easily from one island to another, be sure to use the fast travel system.

Crafting gunpowder

Once you're far enough into the game, you can consider crafting it yourself. You'll first need a grindstone at your camp. The ingredients are:

  • Sulfur: 10 units.
  • Ashes: 20 units for 10 units of gunpowder.

Sulfur is mainly extracted in the coastal jungle, and to collect it you'll need an iron pickaxe. Ashes are simply gathered from a charcoal kiln, which is an easy operation to carry out.
