Combine a Hook and Rope at a Workbench

Bring both components to the Workbench

The finished-tool recipe is 1 Hook + 1 Rope → Grappling Hook at a Workbench. A Hook by itself is not the completed tool, and Rope alone does not replace it.

Use the existing Workbench if available to you, or budget a new one separately. Its construction ingredients are additional to the Grappling Hook's two components.

Check the component recipes

• Rope: 2 Vines and 1 Stick through hand crafting.
• Hook: 1 Iron Rod through hand crafting, when that recipe is available in your menu.

If you can make both components, their raw-material budget is 1 Iron Rod, 2 Vines and 1 Stick. If you already have a Hook or Rope, use that component rather than spending the materials again.

The component and finished-tool recipes are separate entries in the demo recipe reference.

Keep traversal tools separate from barrier tools

The Grappling Hook belongs to the traversal toolkit. The developer's crafting overview describes tools opening new ways through the dungeon.

For a specific blocker, match the tool to the task: Hammer for bars, Torch for the prison-approach webs. See Rope for its other crafting use in the Backpack.
