So far, we've glimpsed a taste of building in EverQuest Next Landmark. But a new video now shows off some of the tools of the trade and what players will require to create structures in the EverQuest Next world.

Players will begin with a single copper pick, which can be used to access tier one materials, like tin and iron. Enough materials will lead to players constructing tools to gather higher-tiered materials, up to five tiers. Creating structures will require certain tools and materials that must be crafted with given recipes.

EverQuest Next's lead designer, Darrin McPherson, offers a helpful walkthrough on the building process, which you can check out below. If you'd like to get in some early building action, Landmark beta sign-ups are open right now.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
