One that is VERY USEFUL is if you put down a flame near other buildings & pull out your building hammer you can TAKE EVERYTHING & get a ton of building materials that you may not see until later in the game, but the best thing is you'll not need to gather & craft those materials. And after you pick up your flame & reset the game the build will be back, ready to be striped again. *THIS IS HOW YOU BUILD YOURSELF A CASTLE!*
@@rodger554 It definitely does work, I just threw down a flame altar for a respawn and had the option to "dismantle" almost everything there. The components would go straight into my inventory
One cheesy tip is that, while you can’t fast travel from the shroud, you can exit to menu and log back in to be put back at your nearest base. Handy if you’re running out of time.
Not sure if anyone will care about this one but, to make Farm Soil takes 7 Dirt and 3 Bonemeal to make 10. However you can go over to Harvest Homestead just west of the Ancient Spire and there are a bunch of plant fiber and corn you can pick. Anyway in any of those fields where you are picking you can pull out your pickaxe and dig in the ground and it will pull up Farm Soil instead of dirt. So making a huge, fast growing garden is easy when you put down farm soil and you have an unlimited amount there if you want it. Not to mention all the seedling recipes that use Farm Soil as well.
Didn't know this but it's easy to make bone meal with the grinding stone, just slap some bones in there and go adventuring. Come back and make a crap ton of farm soil.
@@bingham81 Correct but, a lot of recipes use bone meal so, this way it saves that bone meal for other things instead of the soil. Besides once you learn how to make the bone blocks, you will use a ton of bones, because everyone wants their buildings made of out skull and bones :) LOL j/k
@@bingham81 True but you also need soil when making some of the recipes so you can go through quite a bit. But with that said you can do it however you want. I was just throwing it out, that there is an unlimited supply close to your home base for those who don't want to use the resources to make it. But you feel free to make it if you wish, it was just a little tip for anyone who wants to use it.
ALWAYS, keep an altar of flame and workbench on you when exploring. Many times I’ve come across a HUGE adventure area, that did not have a checkpoint or fast travel point handy. Make your own and make a repair spot with the bench. You can even fast travel home, stock up on rested, potions, food etc.. and fast travel right back to your temporary base. 🎉🎉🎉
You don't need to keep an altar on you. You can always just mine up 5 stone and make one on the fly. I've yet to be in a situation where stone wasn't readily available nearby.
@@Willis05687 💯 that’s what I was doing at first. But as I get further out in the world I like having it prepped with a workbench. But your totally right it’s easy to pick axe 3 times and have the stone for sure. What is your favorite part about the game? Exploring, base building, or combat/theorycraft?
No need to bring a workbench, just teleport back, repair, restock etc. then return to the alter. The only thing that may occasionally prevent you from doing this, is finding a suitable area to place the alter, but it's suprisingly agreeable with viable positions.
Early on while exploring use only one of your Flame Alters as a base. That way you can make another one on the road and fast travel home, empty your pack and then fast travel back to where you were and continue on etc. Then extinguish flame when you're done in that area.
my husband and i do this as a way to meet up with each other. we always keep one available to place so if we ever want to meet up, we just place it and travel to each other then remove it
You can be swimming in metal parts by smashing everything in human camps. Mobs might drop 2 or 3 but you can get a lot more by dismantling everything. Use the axe for crates and barrels. For anything that looks metal, use the pick. Anything that looks like a cage can drop 3 metal in a couple of swings I believe. I pulled out a couple of stacks from one camp, but I'm fairly sure there are a couple of camps where you won't find any. I believe enclosed boxes and barrels can drop items. The ones that appear open will only drop wood. Can't confirm, but I'm fairly sure this is correct. Ancient spires are a great place for all sorts of things from potions to more advanced components. I think the first spire has a lot of metal plates which you won't have to craft and probably can't craft at that point. Revelwood has some copper bars and bricks. You'll also get all sorts of potions, scrolls and random bits and bobs. Axe for anything that looks like a vase, pick for everything else is most efficient. Not everything can be dismantled, but you'll fill your inventory will all sorts of useful items, and some not so useful that you're better off farming elsewhere. I don't know if it's so much as somewhere to farm, but it's pretty quick when you consider you're getting crafted items, some of which you can't craft at that point in the game. I Imagine if you went through them a few times when first reaching them, you would end up with a load of whatever you needed without ever needing to craft the components for armor and such. You would also get some weapons out of the chests along the way. Pull out your torch for bees.
@@wcpoly Flower soil, farm soil and dirt road block are all available from Harvest Homestead, to the west of the map. There's a great video re is the rake OP, that should help.
One of the most time saving tips for me so far: If you have some wells on your property, and you don't want to collect them up, just go to any workbench/seed bench (or whatever they are called) and use add 10+, and if in your magic chests or inventory there isn't any water, it gathers from the wells automatically 😁 put them in a non magical box (not inventory, otherwise it takes first from there) to reproduce this until all wells are on Cooldown.
You can make basements using foundation by placing ut then removing it it'll will have removed the dirt below it as it places the while foundation even if it's below ground, so you can get a nice square space below you house
With getting water from the wells, once you have the masonry tools for the carpenter you can craft a well, then every time it runs out of water you can pick it up and put it back down again. It only gives 3 per collection and the animation plays longer than you get the items for. You can cancel the animation when you stop receiving water by jumping to speed it along.
@@Summanis I know. I just don't do that. I have so much to do in my base that I visit them every few minutes and scoop 15 water from each one. They don't take that really long to replenish
These were pretty good! I'm loving this game so far! Here some tips that I use. #1 Always carry stone or an altar in your inventory. You can use it as a quick save/spawn point #2 Jump/Climb to the top of mountains then use the pickaxe to flatten the peak. Place an altar at the peak and build a base in the sky! Perfect for Spire like wing travel. #3 Carry the throwable bombs for getting to locked treasure. You can blow up the walls next to treasure to reach the goods!
@shannon2323@@fr1zonThis will save me so much time - I have 400+ plant fibre from picking up bushes to get twigs to make arrows... Knew there must be an easier way.
Thanks Lucky Ghost. Your content is by far the best I have seen so far for Enshrouded. You are clear, succinct, non-patronising, non-egotistic and you use English that is grammatically correct. I get great value from watching your content.
Something I haven't seen anyone talk about is that you can technically run infinitely if you run, jump, and keep jumping the second you touch the ground. When you jump you keep moving at running speed, yet your stamina stops depleting.
Don't have grenades in your hand when you tab out since clicking on the window will use whatever is in your have. Pickaxe can have a similar effect. It's a good habit to get into putting 1 or 2 crops back into the planter to make more seedlings, saves time and avoids running out of stock. One from me would be, Carry campfires, sometimes your rested buff will run out but if you place a fire inside a house or safe spot you can sit or sleep and get a basic buff back, very useful for platforming puzzles that very often require more than basic levels.
When standing in front of a storage box it will show a 3 tile preview of what is inside, these are the items in the top left row of your box. Maybe if you use some boxes just for 1 type of material you can quickly see which type it is.
HUGE TIP, when building in caves or clearing mountains, just place a large foundation and disassemble. Any thing there before will be deleted due to the foundation placement…ie speed clearing
You can build in that town (Long Keep) and you can pick axe all that rubble in the buildings to reveal the old structures. I went ahead and placed my flame right there near the well and cleaned out that rubble building to create an awesome little inn / keep. My flame is there next to the well and it makes everything so much easier. Plus digging down in those buildings you find all sorts of cool architecture.
Thank you so much! I knew some of these, but had no idea about the Shroud Elixir (I thought it was just broken, lol) or the hidden treasures! I will definitely be keeping an eye out for those!
Im in love with this game! From the videos I watched before release it really didnt look like much. I love palworld and I cant even remotely get into palworld after this game. This feels like a full on RPG with the best parts of survival. The people that created this feel like people who played/love survival games. They made everything perfect. This is early access but I dont agree this is a full on dope ass RPG with survival perks! The only thing I want so far is maybe horses for mounts! The world is massive!
I’m just waiting for them to release the full map. Looks like maybe only 30-50% of the map you can explore. Found out they have a border with a timer that shows that your past the early access area before you die. When I looked at the map it has a huge area that you can’t explore yet.
Combat tip, kinda cheesy. You can just jump over mobs, turn mid air and land easy backstabs. Double jump paired with the jump attack makes you pretty much invincible in melee fights even against multiple enemies.
A really good early source of metal scrap is to break the pods in the cinder altar. They'll drop a couple of metal scrap, and you can get full stack very quickly.
Want another tip for gathering water ..... make a house next to one Well, and then another house at another Well and fast travel between the two, the Well will always drop. just made 100 water in 10 mins of going from one to the other.
I just found a spot with huge deposit of salt right next to the initial base, just look down the cliff inside the shroud, there is a small tower bellow close to the cliff, its base is full of salt, AND I MEAN A LOT OF SALT, plus if you want to go back to base, just climb the tower and fast travel, its real a life saver, discovered it totally by accident.
May be a bug, but when I couldn't find the 4th switch to open a door, I was able to just bash it with pickaxe. Took a while though. Locked wooden doors go down pretty fast with axe.
For farm soil you can add on the ground as a block and spread with rake and dig with pickaxe its complies all type of ground materials I put roads on your base
@fictitiousnightmares I think they might have fixed something cause I wasn't able to make the base version, suddenly it showed up last night and now I have a scrappy rake
If you leave ur bow at Q, and you auto lock target with TAB and then shoot it misses many times, if you are sprinting and shooting. But if you remove the Q binding, and bind Number 8 to a Q instead it will not miss any shoots while Auto Locking target with TAB.
I think the crafting npcs just need a roof. I built a stone slab with posts and a roof (no walls, doors, windows, etc.), and they are content and progressing.
If your PC can play the game at 60+ fps, get Riva Statistics Tuner and cap the framerate to 60fps. It will feel faster/smoother than the higher fps, and keep your gpu cooler. Devs acknowledged this too. :)
Hot damn!! You got me on 8 tips i didnt know, nice work. I DO enjoy Your videos and i just noticed im not subscribed, let me fix that for You real quick. My tip is: Dodge attack is very powerfull but i miss it very often. The solution is to use TAB or scrollwheelclick to lock on enemies. In this way you can dodge in any direction and dodge attack will always hit your opponent.
Oh yeah especially if you get the skills to do extra backstab damage, rolling on either side moves you around the opponent in a circle instead of in a straight line towards wherever you're dodging. And any backstab is just free extra damage.
Tip: Always smash all the vases and urns and check the benches inside of Ancient Spires. They drop pretty valuable loot. Especially the last 2 ones, where you will find copper bars, bronze bars, tin bars, leather, alchemist base (or however that stuff is called) and a lot of other stuff, like potions. You can easily farm them, once you unlocked them, even if you just do the uppermost level where you spawn when you fast travel there and save yourself a lot of trouble looking for tin deposits. And no, that isn't "End Game" stuff that isn't of interest to people who just started. I unlocked all the Spires at about level 10 or so, just by doing a lot of "parkour", using leapfrogging Altars, building stairs up mountains and running past OP enemies. You can get up to the tallest point of the map on the "Pillars of Creation" mountain that way, basically as soon as you got a glider and a grappling hook and you can glide over all the red shroud without needing to "strengthen" your flame past level 2, I think I was at the time. Of course unlocking all the spires early in the game also allows you to farm chests for high level gear, which makes the game much easier but also has the disadvantage that basically all the gear you find the regular way is pointless and boring, which can make the game less fun. I'm just a character-less lowlife who enjoys being overpowered in games, but others might ruin the game for themselves that way, so think twice before you do it.
Magic spell users: deposit all of your spells into a chest. Place them back in your inventory -- in the order of which you want them in your spell list which will sort them top to bottom (top-most being the first spell pulled into your inventory). Helpful for when you have all the Eternals and want to organize your list based on the general category of the spell (so personal case in point: I'll take the heals first, fireball/ice, lightning, acid/light at the end). This isn't the easiest to manage as picking up ammo (non-Eternals) ends up contributing to the list--just do the chest trick again every now and then, or disregard picking up ammo and instead craft them when they're already situated within your preferred list.
Just click the arrow button in the middle between the storage box inventory and your backpack inventory, a “place stacks’ button shows up that is handy.
Tired of Crafting in the dark with pokey candles? You can mine 'glowie' ore from these 'glowie' pillars in the shroud. Back at base you can craft building blocks out of them and then build, exposed ceiling beans, in your crafting room. The beams glow brightly in the dark - pretty Sci-Fi
Luminescent block yeah. It glows like other shroud cloud things but it has tiny crystals instead of fungus sticking out of it. Usually in caves... And it's very bright! Don't make a whole wall with that stuff
I didn't really read the rest of the comments but I noticed if you pick up the well and put it back down after you've crafted one you can get more water out of it without waiting or logging out
I didn't know about the effectiveness showing, so thanks for that. I am a little bit blind, I can't make out if it says effective or ineffective unless I am 2 inches away from my monitor. It would be nice if the word would be color coded, maybe make the ineffective red? or heck give it an icon like an x or something.
with the npcs, you dont actually need to put them inside your base. you only need to have a roof over their head for them to count as sheltered.. stick a fireplace outside with them for warmth and your good to go.
If you find an unsecured server and they're still early on in the game, leave a couple of ghost gliders or level 25 legendary weapons in their base and bounce. You don't need to be there when they discover the mysterious bug in the game that caused an awesome treasure to spontaneously spawn in their base. Random acts of kindness are the best.
i have yet to see cool armor in this game. I think its really interesting how building visuals are immaculate and landscapes are beautiful, but armor is an eye sore PLUS the chopping animation omg the chopping animation.
if you have your building hammer in the building menu and you harvest water from a well you can see how many waters are in the well and when its depleted - literally just figured this out while watching your video on the second screen haha
A quick tip for traversing! When you have manage to get yourself a glider & when you are walking downhill or atleast a slope of some kind, activate your glider to glide downwards. As long as you as gliding along the slope or downwards motion, you will never stop gliding! Makes it alot easier & faster on some terrains that allows you to do so!
Plus the Mysterious Flask, the darker blue one, - you can't craft it, can only find it in the world. It gives you a longer time in the shroud but it is also brilliant against difficult enemies - 30% damage multiplier for 30 mins, it's useful outside the shroud. (Edit: *that's not minus 30%)
Graves reward you significantly if you dig them up... kinda dark but hey the dead don't need loot. Also you need like an extremely large amount of flax and animal skins. Like it's absolutely fucking insane how much flax and skins you need for endgame gear.
You can sprint and spam the first jump to keep stamina from depleting, the fall from the jump will even restore stamina if you're going straight or downhill it'll recover faster.
You can place your craftspersons outside if you create a little pavilion to cover them. I create a small covered space and then place the craft equipment outside the pavilion beside them.
Tip: Your axe is the best tool to destroy bug & creature spawn points in the shroud. Only 2-4 hits and it destroys them. These are also excellent targets for using the bombs. Tip: Inside for your crafters - they only need a roof. You can put them out on a patio/porch with overhanging roof and they do just fine. Tip: Use the "terrain placer" control in the construction hammer to place a slightly raised square of farm soil then use the rake to spread it all over the farm area. This way you only need a very small amount of rich farm soil to do entire fields of rich soil to grow.
Shroud Potions are very useful. Pop one as you set out and it will stay on your for a very long period of time. It is typical that as one is moving through the world that they pop in and out of the Shroud and having that on you gives you a bigger window to explore. I use them all of the time along with the Eye one. It is also a good way to negate the debuff from the attack potion (dark blue one).
Will you do a playthrough please. Unless I missed it I was looking through your playlist and I couldn't find one. The game is at a few big updates since this video and I would love to see you cover more about it. Thanks for the great content
That well by the house can be activated WAY more than every 2 hours. I was checking it every 10 minutes or so and getting water while building out my farm.
It was the "stop myself from deleting items tip" that go me 😢 touched me right in the feels, 😅 I accidentally deleted the legendary glowing sword you get from the start😢
If your talking about the level 3 one just restart your world and go grab it again. I believe that sword refreshes and won’t change loot drop in that chest
Been doing most of these on my own from experience with similar games like 7 days to die or icarus. These are all good tips. That damn tree thing just happened to me yesterday and killed me too.
A great way to get water once you have the well unlocked is to pick up and replace the well after scooping out water. It instantly refreshes it's cool down so you can constantly scoop water in a loop
1) Y+mousewheel = zoom-in/out 2) Flame Shrines give you sparks but you need to claim the fire (I didn't realise until yesterday when I wanted to lvl up flame)
One tip about the well I found today. If you get to where you can build one at your base just pick it up and replace it and you can interact with it again. Rinse and repeat.
one thing ive also noticed is that if ya see a big pile of ruubble in a catacomb etc then its usually hiding something, found a leggendary bow that way also u can craft a water well once ya progressed far enough, so thats a inffinite supply of water in any base also using farm soil greatly speeds up the growing speed of seedings
Not really an in-game tip but me and a friend both play on our Steam Decks and it works wonderfully. Your character will look a little funky (graphics) but it runs smoothly.
Cool I was wondering about that… I was considering getting a steam deck but wish this game would come to the Switch Oled so I don’t have to buy another system….
Tip, if you want to move the camera distance hold z and use the scroll wheel while in game. Handy when cheesing enemies with a bow from an elevated position.
When farming, it's cheaper to use the rake to spread your farm soil than to make a bunch of it and place individual blocks. You can spread it and pickaxe it up for free soil too! Good dupe, until it's patched, of course.
To get rest state you need Shelter/Sitting, Warmth, and Comfort. In your base the Comfort rating is calculated off of the most effective items in each category in each Flame area, not which items are close to you. So, the best bed, the best fireplace, the best chair, etc. in the entire area of the Flame you are in the radius of. You can see the comfort level provided by each item in their description when you go to craft them. As long as you are sheltered/sitting and near enough to a source of warmth, the best overall counts. The Flame itself is an exception, and provides warmth and 5 points of comfort on the platform around it. You can get rest state by just sitting next to it.
You missed that the Spinning Wheel makes Flax into Linen at a 1:1 ratio, where the Spindle does it at 2:1. Also, if you go to Willow Crush (iirc), you can actually pickaxe up the flower gardens and get Flower Soil, a special decorating material.
