How to Explore and Loot Forgotten Ruins
The Forgotten Ruins is a custom structure generated in the world, holding valuable loot, ancient relics, and dangerous encounters.
Preparing for the Descent
Before entering a Forgotten Ruins structure, prepare thoroughly:
- Equip sturdy armor, such as crafted copper armor or one of the mod's unique protective sets.
- Bring reliable weaponry, including melee arms or ranged choices like the Harpoon.
- Stock up on healing items, food, and plenty of torches to light dark corridors.
Clearing Monsters and Securing Loot
Hostile monsters frequently spawn throughout the corridors and rooms of the ruins. Approach each chamber cautiously, placing torches to prevent additional mobs from ambushing you from behind. Engage enemies individually to avoid being overwhelmed.
Once a chamber is cleared of threats, search the area thoroughly for loot chests. The Forgotten Ruins are prime locations to secure ancient relics, fresh gear, and specialized combat equipment that significantly improve your survival odds in later expeditions.
