It is quite useful for those river dungeons which you have to pass a lot of times and do not wish do slow down due to the wieght limit of ice or to risk losing scrolls and books by swimming over it...

However, logs are heavy (800s) thus it can be a burden to carry enough of them to make a good bridge (unless its only 1 space) unless you got means of increasing ur carrying capacity.

By the time the PC can use bridge building to effect, s/he should already have gotten a waterproof blanket and nice swimming skill.

Spoiler
The bride building skill is mostly usefull for PC's that want the ring of the high king and dont want to do the druid quest, and cant cast or zap frost bolt, a very plausible scenario for non spellcaster PCs who dont start with the healing skill and thus have access to the bridge building book.

it's too hard for me to transport ENOUGH logs according to probability of success.
...and transport them very far too.

I've built many a useful bridge during my time of playing. It is not to be underestimated to be able to permanently turn a river square into a walkable square..

And besides, having to hack through a monster that blocks the other side of the river is *not* a nice thing to do in this game, where drowning is all too common.

If your character is a Troll, maybe you could (t)hreaten monsters to give you gold when crossing your bridge. Plus you could live under it :D

Ok, a silly thought but I couldn't resist!

And every chars can threaten mobs to flee or die on their bridge ^^

One place where its very useful is a place where you can get a good artifact, but its not required.

Technically not required, but it's awfully useful. Being able to use a certain exit to the surface is very nice.
