Survive an Illager Outpost Exploration

Scout Before Engaging

Illager structures in this mod contain multiple enemy types working together. Approach cautiously and identify which Illagers are present—Upgraders will be stationed defensively, while Prinzologers patrol on horseback.

Eliminate Upgraders First

Upgraders act as support units that strengthen nearby Illagers with better armor. Taking them out early prevents enemies from becoming too durable. They typically stay in central or elevated positions within the structure.

Handle Mounted Threats

Prinzologers on horseback deal knockback damage with their maces. Use ranged attacks to damage them from distance, or create obstacles that block their movement. Narrow corridors inside structures can trap mounted enemies.

Watch for Callologer Reinforcements

If a Callologer is present, expect additional enemies to arrive when it uses its horn. Clear one area completely before moving deeper into the structure. Shadow Goats may charge from unexpected angles—keep moving to avoid being pinned against walls.

Collect Rewards Safely

Once the structure is clear, gather loot and leave. Illager structures respawn enemies over time in this mod, so don't linger.
