Gliders are incredibly useful in Enshrouded. In a world where exploration is key, being able to travel faster, cross gaps, and get to areas difficult to reach by foot is paramount.
Once you’ve unlocked Gliders and crafted your first one, you’ll be able to upgrade them by crafting advanced versions. Better Gliders have more speed and range, and there aren’t many Glider options in Enshrouded, so it’s easy to identify which are best.
Usually, you’ll upgrade your Gliders progressively, by exploring more areas and increasing your level, similar to Grappling Hooks. If you prefer, you can specifically look up the best one and get it earlier in your journey, which will give you an advantage when exploring the lands of Enshrouded.
All gliders in Enshrouded, ranked
There are only four Gliders in Enshrouded, so choosing the best one isn’t too hard. Their recipes are fairly similar: You need Shroud Wood and Strings for all of them, in addition to a few other components. Here is a list of all gliders in Enshrouded in order of how good they are, and how to get them.
4) Glider
The base Glider is the worst one you can get, but it’s easy to get early in your journey since the materials you need are in a fairly accessible area. It has the lowest range (100 percent) and speed (10) of all gliders.
| Item | Recipe |
| Glider | x8 Shroud Wood x3 Animal Fur x2 String x2 Shroud Spores |
3) Advanced Glider
| Item | Recipe |
| Advanced Glider | x6 Shroud Wood x4 Linen x4 String x8 Shroud Sack |
The Advanced Glider is the first upgraded Glider you can get, but it’s still among the worst ones in the roster. It has a better speed and range, but still lower than the other Gliders. The Advanced Glider has 15 speed and a 150 percent range. You can get it after unlocking the Carpenter, and it requires resources from the Revelwoods.
2) Extraordinary Glider
| Item | Recipe |
| Extraordinary Glider | x4 Shroud Wood x2 Leather x2 Linen x4 Alchemical Base |
The Extraordinary Glider has five more speed and 50 percent more range than the Advanced Glider, so it’s the second-best Glider you can get. You also need to craft it through the Carpenter. You’ll need a Tanning Station, though, since it’s a bit more advanced than the previous two Gliders.
1) Ghost Glider
| Item | Recipe |
| Ghost Glider | x3 Shroud Wood x2 Fabric x4 Enshrouded Oil One Sulfur One String |
This is the best Glider in the game. You can travel at very high speeds with it, and get far from Ancient Spires and Elixir Wells in no time. It has a whopping 25 speed and a 250-percent range. You can either craft it or find the Ghost Glider at the Sun Temple. The latter method lets you get it earlier, but it’ll still require some effort.
