Notes

All options are viewable on a tool bench's crafting menu, but those unavailable due to its level are overlaid by the image of a lock with the required level number on it.

As upgrades are implemented, that menu option disappears.

Copper bows and arrows and crowbars were added in version 1.4, with gold bow and poison arrows added in version 1.5.
