Surviving the Darkness: A Guide to Finding Shroud Cores in Enshrouded

Step into the dark, mysterious world of Enshrouded, a survival game filled with terrifying monsters and valuable resources. To thrive in this unforgiving environment, players must scavenge for essential materials, including the elusive Shroud Cores. But what are Shroud Cores, and how can you find them?

What are Shroud Cores?

Shroud Cores are a vital resource in Enshrouded, allowing players to upgrade their bases and expand their territories. However, obtaining these cores won't be easy, as they're guarded by fearsome monsters and hidden in treacherous locations.

Where to Find Shroud Cores in Enshrouded

Defeating Shroud monster bosses is the key to finding Shroud Cores. One of the most effective ways to obtain a Shroud Core is by defeating the Thunderbrute boss, which can be found at the bottom of the Shroud Well near the starting point of the game.

To increase your chances of success, make sure to:

• Have plenty of time left to be in the Shroud or use a Shroud Survival Flask to extend your resistance time.
• Equip decent armor before hunting Shroud Cores.
• Develop combat finesse, including quick dodging and striking. Blocking will not prevent damage from being dealt.

Creating Shroud Cores with Alchemy in Enshrouded

If you find grinding boss fights too challenging, there's an alternative way to collect Shroud Cores. By locating and recruiting Alchemist Balthazar, who is hidden in an ancient vault, you can craft Shroud Cores using:

• 10x Shroud Spores.
• 10x Shroud Liquid.

These resources can be collected by killing Shroud monsters or cutting down Shroud plants within the larger Shroud area in the gorge under the bridge.

What are Shroud Cores Used For in Enshrouded?

Shroud Cores are essential for upgrading your base using the Flame Alter. To make the first upgrade, you'll need to bring one Shroud Core. This upgrade allows you to build on a wider area and expand your base. The number of Shroud Cores required to increase the base size will grow along with the base level.
