[[File:Yew Tree (strategy).png|thumb|400px|Yew Tree Strategy, Red is the path between trees, Black is the path to deposit to the storage rift.]]
The most efficient place to fell Yew Trees is in the vicinity of the [[Narrow Path]], where there are 4 trees close to each other, and a storage rift. Yew trees chop slower than other types of tree, so only 4 can realistically be chopped before they respawn.
The 4 trees shown in the picture are close enough together that all 4 may be chopped in sequence just as they respawn. This path is marked in red, and a cycle takes takes 53 seconds, for 13.25 seconds per tree or 271 logs per hour. Chopping a 5th tree in the However after every 24 logs chopped the players inventory will be full, and the logs must dropped, sold, or banked.
Discarding the logs by dropping them on the floor is the fastest option, and can be done with practically no time loss. This maintains 271 logs per hour, at the cost of giving no items or coins.
Depositing the Yew logs in the [[Storage Rift]] in the nearby [[Tangled Path]] is the second fastest option. Travelling to and from the storage rift takes 21 seconds and must be performed after every 6 cycles, resulting in a total value of 255 logs per hour. This provides logs into the [[Lumber Bank]], the most convenient location to use them for training [[Carpentry]], saving money from buying those logs in the future from Gwen.
Selling the Yew logs as you chop them is not recommended, as is is a considerable distance to [[Gwen's Lumber (shop)|the shop]] where they may be sold, however after banking it is possible to make trips between the lumber bank and the shop to sell the logs. Players without access to the [[Storage Rift]] may teleport to [[Hopeforest Central Portal Stone]] and run to either the the shop or the bank as they choose, however unlocking the rifts should be a priority for anyone intending to chop a considerable number of Yew Trees.

===Co-op===
Yew trees may be felled in co-op, which provides slightly more XP per log than when felling solo, and saves around 1 second per tree. However, players must stand on opposite sides of the tree to perfom the co-op action, which takes additional time to set up. Therefore the path to follow for co-op yew trees is the same as for solo.
