Burial Chambers are dungeons found in Black Forests. There are three variants to the dungeon entrance in the overworld.

Description[]

They are composed of several rooms linked by maze-like hallways, sometimes going up or down. They house the important Surtling cores necessary for constructing Charcoal kilns and Smelters but also contain other items such as precious gems, Yellow mushrooms, Bone fragments and Coins.

Rooms are occasionally guarded by Ghosts and Skeletons emerging from Evil bone piles.

Strategy[]

Since the Burial Chamber is effectively a maze and can be quite confusing due to same-looking corridors and distracting fights, standard maze-tricks are quite helpful: The best strategy is to choose one side upon entering (left or right) and always follow that wall. This ensures that you not only find back to the exit, but also ensures that you have seen absolutely every room in it when you reach the end (when your next "left" or "right" path would be to take the exit).

Also note that loot can be scattered on the floor in some places (small altar-ish looking forks in the hallways, as well as the obvious loot-chambers), which might be missed when not on the lookout for it.

Enemies slain in Burial Chambers do not respawn.

Loot[]

Amount Item Chance
1-3 Amber Amber 20%
10-30 Coins Coins 20%
1-10 Feathers Feathers 20%
5-10 Flinthead arrow Flinthead arrow 20%
1-2 Ruby Ruby 20%

Notes[]

  • Bring Torches or a Dverger circlet as Burial Chambers are very dark.
  • Campfire and Cooking station can be placed inside dungeons to allow the player to rest.
  • Typically 3 skeletons protect the outside entrance of each burial chamber, which will eventually respawn when killed.
