    Completing the Wind Organ of Wildness in Core Keeper: A Guide

    With Azeos, Omoroth, and Ra-Akar defeated in Core Keeper, their powers have transferred to you. Now, it’s time to tackle the next challenges dwelling within The Core. Each of the central biomes is guarded by powerful Titans that represent their respective lands, and defeating them is essential to progress.

    Druidra represents the fierce nature of Azeos’ Wilderness, while Crydra symbolizes the chilling depths of the Sunken Sea. Both of these Titans must be vanquished in order to face the mightiest Elemental Titan, Pyrdra. Be ready, as they will not yield easily.

    Preparing for Druidra and Crydra

    Both Druidra and Crydra boast power on par with that of the Atlantean Worm, but there’s no need for vehicles – these battles are strictly land-based, even Crydra, despite its aquatic nature.

    As with previous bosses, you’ll want to stock up on Healing Potions; aim for around 15 to 20 for both encounters, depending on the difficulty level, since these bosses unleash potent moves that can pin you down. While Regular Healing Potions suffice, Greater Healing Potions—crafted from three Poison Slime and five Heartberries at a Laboratory Table—are your best bet.

    Ensure to reinforce your armor and weapons at the Repair Table for added durability and a slight damage boost.

    You’ll also need a solid amount of food, preferably crafted from mid-to-late-game crops and fish, like Pinegrapples, Bloat Oats, Golden Darts, Dark Lava Eaters, or Sunrice. Looking in the Sunken Sea, Shimmering Frontier, or the Molten Quarry sub-biome can yield the best food for health restoration and gradual healing at this point in the game.

    Tips for Melee Characters

    When gearing up for the fight, prioritize Galaxite and Solarite armor for optimal defense. These sets are not only strong but also relatively easy to acquire. While alternative armor sets like Omoroth’s Armor Set, Godsent King Set, and Magma Set offer better damage bonuses, they require more exploration or boss farming.

    Older armor sets, like the Hivebone Armor, can still work, but you’ll need to upgrade them significantly at an Upgrade Workbench, which is resource-intensive but sometimes worth it.

    For your weapon choice, you will have plenty of options since the terrain won’t pose a challenge. Weapons like the Anchor Axe and Crystal Shard Club stand out for their high damage output, while the Prehistoric Crystal Spear also delivers solid performance if you have it. Crafted weapons such as the Solarite Sword provide good stats and the ability to activate boss soul skills.

    Tips for Ranged Characters

    If you’re focusing on ranged damage, you have various armor options available. The Tassel Set offers significant damage at the expense of armor, while the Godsent King Set and Cosmos Armor provide excellent defense paired with damage boosts. The Omoroth’s Armor Set is another viable choice.

    The Scarab Armor can be paired with Thorns-giving accessories for a nice mix of offense and defense, but ensure that you’re benefitting from the three-piece set bonus to maximize the Thorns Damage applied to your Ranged Damage.

    Due to the wide-open spaces in the battle arenas, weapons that rely on walls for maximum effect, like the Galaxite Chakram, might not be as effective. Instead, focus on using the Solarite Bow, Bubble Gun, or Phantom Spark for better damage output.

    Tips for Magic Characters

    For mages, one of the best armor sets at this stage is the Arcane Monk Set, obtainable from enemies and breakable objects in the Shimmering Frontier. If you still possess older sets like the Scholar Set or Lilypad Set, you can upgrade them as they can rival the late-game sets.

    For weaponry, both the Scholar Staff and Zealot’s Scimitar are excellent choices due to their high damage and ease of access. However, if you’ve progressed to the Passage biome, acquiring Pandorium Ore and using a Rift Statue will allow you to craft the Chaos Staff, which has better damage potential.

    Tips for Summoner Characters

    "Grim Set," which you can find by breaking items, opening Smoldering Chests, or defeating "Igneous the Molten Mass" in the Molten Quarry sub-biome, is currently the top choice for enhancing Minion Damage and Count.

    The Nimruza, Queen of the Burrowed Sands, provides a more advanced minion-related armor set but is intended for late-game players and will require tougher preparations.

    For Summoning characters, you will also have a range of options, as the lack of water means any type will perform well. Notably, the Tome of the Dead and Tome of the Deep are top choices for damage.

    How to Track and Summon Druidra and Crydra

    As roaming bosses, the best strategy to locate Druidra and Crydra is to craft their Scanners at an Ancient Hologram Pod and use them to monitor their movements in their designated biomes. You will need the same materials to create both: Ancient Gemstone, Mechanical Parts, and specific bars depending on the Titan.

    How to Craft the Hydra Altar

    While the Scanners are made at the Ancient Hologram Pod, the summoning items for Druidra and Crydra are crafted using the Hydra Altar. Start by gathering Solarite Ore and Gleam Wood, refining them, and upgrading your Galaxite Workbench into a Solarite one.

    How to Make Druidra Surface

    To prompt Druidra to surface, you must create the Wind Organ of Wilderness at the Hydra Altar.

    How to Make Crydra Surface

    After defeating Druidra, you can summon Crydra by creating the Wind Organ of Ice using the Pink Hydra Eye obtained from Druidra’s reward chest.

    Strategy for Battling Druidra

    Druidra is the least challenging of the Elemental Titans, and you’ll learn the combat mechanics necessary for defeating the rest. Start by reducing its Shield Bar to stun it, allowing you to deal damage to its health.

    Druidra demonstrates several attacks, including beam charges, AOE damage, bites, summoning thorns, and windstorms that create hazardous areas. Managing your distance, utilizing fallen blocks, and strategically dodging are key to minimizing damage.

    Strategy for Battling Crydra

    Similar to Druidra, Crydra requires you to deplete its Shield Bar to stun it. However, Crydra introduces more complexity with the addition of a clone, necessitating close attention to both.

    Be prepared for Crydra’s ice blasts and the dangers that come with them, as they can significantly deplete your health. Clever movement and the usage of shields or teleporting devices are fundamental to staying alive during this fight.

    Once victorious, defeating either Titan will reward you with their respective souls and a variety of other valuable loot, pushing you further along in your adventure through The Core.

    Completing the Godsent Armor Set in Core Keeper: A Guide to Solving It

    As you explore the underground cavern in Core Keeper, you’ll come across remnants of past civilizations, including abandoned camps, homes, fishing huts, and even grand, advanced cities. It’s unclear what led to their downfall, but the large enemies you encounter might hold the key to that mystery.

    These foes may be aggressive now, but there’s a chance they were once peaceful or perhaps even feared by the inhabitants of The Core. Regardless, a temple dedicated to three of these beings holds intricately designed chests that require specific items to open.

    What Is The Titan Temple?

    The Titan Temple is a distinctive site found in the Desert of Beginnings, housing all three components of the Godsent Armor Set. Each world contains only one Titan Temple, positioned roughly 650 tiles away from The Core.

    This small structure has three rooms filled with various Temple furnishings and three uniquely locked chests that require Titan-themed treasures to unlock: the Azeos Feather Fan, Ra-Akar Automaton, and Omoroth Compass.

    The three Royal Graves are typically situated near the Titan Temple, sharing a similar distance from The Core.

    In a fashion similar to how you gather the parts for the Admin Key, the three Titan items required for the Titan Temple can be found inside Royal Graves located within special dungeons in the Desert of Beginnings. Each grave corresponds to a particular mid-game boss.

    How To Find The Maze Dungeons


    Close up view of a Maze Dungeon showing it partially explored and a Royal Grave in the center in Core Keeper.

    On the map, the Maze Dungeons that contain the Royal Graves will appear as dark green-gray squares, and you will find only three of them.

    Once you locate one, you can triangulate the positions of the other two. You don’t need to worry about discovering dungeons that lack the graves:

    • The Prince Grave, which holds the Ra-Akar Automaton and is located around 500 tiles away from The Core.
    • The Queen Grave, which contains the Azeos Feather Fan and can be found approximately 600 tiles away from The Core.
    • The King Grave, which has the Omoroth Compass and is positioned about 750 tiles from The Core.

    The Maze Dungeons consist of narrow corridors filled with dead ends, with the main dangers stemming from Spike Floors and Stone Dart Totems, both capable of inflicting significant damage, even through Galaxite Armor, along with poisoning effects if you’re hit.

    Bring along at least some Wooden Bridges, as you’ll encounter open water tiles while navigating through the mazes.

    Aside from the traps and the graves at the center, the only other items present in the dungeons are Locked Galaxite Chests, Golden Ancient Chests, and small three-by-three-tile rooms with four Temple breakables.

    How To Get To The Royal Graves

    The layout of each Maze Dungeon is unique, so there isn’t a standard map to follow. Start by mapping the dungeon’s edges to get a sense of its shape and the direction you need to take.

    If you have room in your inventory, collect any traps you find, as they can be used for automated farming back at your base or sold for Ancient Coins.

    Choose one of the several entrances to enter and head toward the center of the dungeon, using bridges to cross any water tiles while utilizing a Scarlet Pickaxe or better to dismantle the traps you encounter to prevent them from causing issues later.

    The Royal Grave will always glow amidst the darkness, guiding you toward the center. Once spotted, you can head straight towards it since there’s likely a pathway leading nearby.

    Exploring the Maze Dungeons, even partially, is worthwhile for the chance to discover Locked Galaxite chests, which may contain the Paladin Armor Set, Galaxite Sledgehammer, or Bomb Scarab Mortar.

    Use your pickaxe to break through the outer walls of the grave, dismantle the Stone Dart Traps in the corners, and close in on the grave.

    Inside, you’ll discover the Titan item along with two other treasures that you can choose to keep or leave, then simply return to the entrance you came through to exit.

    How To Obtain The Godsent Armor Set

    After gathering all three Titan items, either search for the Titan Temple in the Desert of Beginnings about 650 tiles from The Core or return to it if you’ve already located it and go inside.

    Once you’ve unlocked the Titan Chests, you can dismantle them like other chests with a pickaxe and use them as storage at your base.

    No enemies will spawn in this area, allowing you to freely enter each room and unlock the chests:

    • The left room contains the Desert Queen Chest, which requires the Azeos Feather Fan and guarantees the Godsent King Breastplate, Azeos’ Dash Feather off-hand, Septum Ring, an Ancient Golden Coin, and ten Ancient Gemstones.
    • The middle room holds the Desert King Chest, which necessitates the Omoroth Compass, and it always contains the Godsent King Mask, Noble Ring, Golden Jellyfish, an Ancient Golden Coin, and ten Ancient Gemstones.
    • The right room hosts the Desert Prince Chest, which needs the Ra-Akar Automaton, ensuring it contains the Godsent King Pants Armor, Polished Gold Crystal Necklace, Concealed Blade, an Ancient Golden Coin, and ten Ancient Gemstones.

    Apart from the Royal Chests, you can also collect various valuables from the pedestals in each room and uncover four hidden rooms on the left and right sides of the Temple by breaking through the Desert Blocks near the central water pool. Each hidden room holds some Temple-themed furniture items and both small and large Temple Breakables.

    How To Access the Hidden Room in the Titan Temple


    Close up view of the Titan Temple map showing a tunnel leading to a hidden room in Core Keeper.

    A fifth hidden room resides at the back of the Titan Temple, but it’s encased by indestructible blocks on all sides, save for a tunnel.

    To access it, you need a Galaxite Pickaxe or a stronger tool to break through the Temple Block located three tiles away from the narrow room between Azeos’ and Omoroth’s rooms.

    This unlocks a one-tile-wide tunnel leads to a Stone Dart Trap, along with several Desert Blocks you can break through. Continue digging to reveal another corridor with a Stone Dart Trap, followed by more blocks needing removal.

    This tunnel will lead you to the final hidden room, which contains numerous Temple breakables, as well as three Golden Pedestals that hold items such as Astral Jelly, Starlight Shards, and one Galaxite Bar.

  • Completing the Glyph Parchment Shrine in Core Keeper’s Sunken Sea

    Completing the Glyph Parchment Shrine in Core Keeper’s Sunken Sea

    As you venture through the vast biomes that extend from the Core in Core Keeper, you’ll stumble upon various ancient ruins, some exposed due to looting or the passage of time, while others remain securely sealed. While many of these ruins hold outdated technology or minor treasures, some are much more significant.

    Among them, one ruin floats on a solitary island in the Sunken Sea. If you pass by, you’ll notice a chest concealed behind an unusual locked door. Digging won’t get you through, so to access the treasure inside, you’ll need to harness ancient technology to craft the Admin Key.

    How to Prepare and Locate a Forlorn Metropolis

    The Admin Key is a special item used to unlock the Sunken Shrine in the Sunken Sea. To create it, you’ll need three unique crafting materials along with the purchasable Empty Crystal recipe:

    • Shutdown Protocol
    • Anomaly Report
    • Overwrite Transport

    To reach the Sunken Sea, you must defeat the first three bosses – Glurch, Ghorm, and Malugaz. Place their dropped trophies in their respective totems at the Core to remove the Great Wall, and locate the biome beyond its border.

    These three materials can only be found in exclusive areas of the Forlorn Metropolis sub-biomes, situated in the Sunken Sea and often appearing amidst the open water, unless they intersect with land or other mid-game biomes.

    Before you set out, ensure you have at least reinforced Octarine Armor, some powerful weapons, bridges, and enough food and potions. The sub-biome is extensive, and you’ll encounter multiple enemies in a single room who can hit hard with long-range magical attacks, even if you’re prepared.

    Having a Boat is essential for traversing the waters easily without the hassle of building numerous bridges. You can craft the basic model at a Boat Workbench using 80 Planks, 50 Scarlet Bars, and 20 Mechanical Gears.

    If you’ve already explored the Desert of Beginnings and started creating Galaxite Bars, the Galaxite Chakram is an excellent weapon for the Forlorn Metropolis because it frequently bounces off room walls.

    Player character navigating a boat in the Sunken Sea in Core Keeper.

    Once prepared, begin boating across the expanse of the Sunken Sea, concentrating on the widest water areas and searching for large structures in the water.

    Forlorn Metropolis sub-biomes will appear as square-shaped connections of rooms and hallways, unlike the land formations, with their building blocks displayed in light and dark blue-green colors on your map.

    A helpful strategy to locate a Forlorn Metropolis is to first boat around and identify at least one edge of the Sunken Sea. This will help you establish some boundaries, increasing your chances of discovering one.

    Each Forlorn Metropolis will always feature two to four open entrances for docking, which may occasionally harbor enemies and items like the Vending Machine that sells various food dishes.

    Inside, you will face Caveling Scholars and Core Sentries, both capable of launching magic attacks and the sentries utilizing an area-of-effect stomp.

    How to Locate the Broken Cores

    Within these areas, you can find various unique items, such as Crystal Lamps and Ancient Chests containing Sunken Sea loot like Octarine Ore. However, the main goal is to discover the special Broken Core Room scenes.

    The Shutdown Protocol, Anomaly Report, and Overwrite Transport can only be obtained by interacting with the Broken Cores found in these specific Forlorn Metropolis sub-biomes that are typically larger than usual.

    • Shutdown Protocol: Approximately 550 tiles from the Core.
    • Anomaly Report: Approximately 650 tiles from the Core.
    • Overwrite Transport: Approximately 750 tiles from the Core.

    Finding at least one of the sub-biomes containing a part of the Admin Key will assist in determining the locations of the other two, as they are usually in proximity to each other.

    These rooms are among the largest within the sub-biome and are generally situated in the center, displaying a unique appearance on the map.

    They will always feature two to three lines intersecting with a gray square, which represents the Broken Core, but will lack the blue or green centers that mark the City Park and City Plaza scenes.

    Upon discovering the Broken Core Rooms, approach the Broken Core and interact with it. A mini-inventory will appear, revealing one of the three crafting materials.

    Be sure to inspect the Ancient Chest found in each of the three Broken Core Rooms, as they contain unique crafting materials necessary for making the Phantom Spark bow.

    How to Craft the Admin Key

    Player crafting the Admin Key in their base, showing progress.

    After collecting the three essential items from the Forgotten Metropolises, the final component you’ll need is the Empty Crystal.

    This recipe can be purchased from the Cloaked Merchant for 3,000 Ancient Coins after you’ve activated the Core by placing all three trophies from the early-game bosses into their corresponding statues.

    After defeating Ghorm the Devourer, the Cloaked Merchant and their furniture item will become available. As with other NPCs, you can house them in your base by placing their Mysterious Idol in an appropriate room.

    Next, add the Empty Crystal to your hot bar and ensure you have the Shutdown Protocol, Anomaly Report, and Overwrite Transport in your inventory simultaneously, as it won’t work otherwise.

    Activate the Empty Crystal to trigger a progress bar on your screen. Once filled, the three items will merge with the Empty Crystal to create the Admin Key, allowing you to unlock the Sunken Shrine.

    How to Find and Open the Glyph Parchment Shrine

    Map view showing the player by the Glyph Parchment Shrine in Core Keeper.

    The Glyph Parchment Shrine can be found in the open waters of the Sunken Sea, located 500 tiles from the Core.

    It appears as a small, lightbulb-shaped island featuring a ruins room similar to the Musical Note Rooms but with a visible Titan Chest inside and a large, ornate door that has a diamond-shaped hole.

    If you’ve discovered the Forlorn Metropolis containing the Shutdown Protocol, there’s a good chance the Sunken Shrine is nearby, so you can easily boat there from the Forlorn Metropolis.

    Once you find the shrine, approach the door and interact with it. This will open a mini-inventory where you can place the Admin Key, unlocking the door.

    Inside, you’ll find several breakable items from the Forlorn Metropolis, unique furniture, and a Titan Chest hidden behind a Throne, which contains valuable loot: 25 Gold Bars, 15 Ancient Gemstones, and the unique Glyph Parchment recipe needed to craft the Phantom Spark bow.

  • Completing the Laboratory Table Quest in Core Keeper

    Completing the Laboratory Table Quest in Core Keeper

    As you dive deeper into Core Keeper, you’ll find yourself mining a lot, starting with dirt blocks to gather copper ores and advancing to more valuable resources in crystalline biomes. You can choose from various pickaxes or use sledgehammers for large-scale demolition, but when it comes to clearing out vast areas quickly, bombs can be your best friends.

    Both bombs and grenades let you toss several at once over a wide area, causing them to explode sequentially to yield plenty of ores. You can also connect specific types using electronic wires, creating a chain reaction to clear space for new constructions. Plus, these explosives can effectively deal with enemies.

    Crafting Bombs

    To create the first tier of bombs, you’ll need to make an Alchemy Table. You can build this once you have a Tin Workbench, which requires eight Woods, eight Slimes, and five Tin Bars.

    Placing the Alchemy Table gives you access to basic potions, grenades, and bombs, primarily crafted using Bomb Peppers. These peppers are abundant in the Underground and Clay Cave biomes.

    You can also find bombs and grenades in chests, wooden crates, during fishing, and occasionally dropped by certain enemies like Bomb Scarabs.

    The mid-tier bombs require a Laboratory Table for crafting. This table can be made at a Scarlet Workbench or higher and needs 15 Planks and 10 Scarlet Bars.

    Low-Tier Bombs and Grenades

    Player character using a Laboratory Table and looking at the low-tier bombs like Dynamite Pack in Core Keeper.

    Most low-tier bombs and grenades can be either thrown or placed, exploding a few seconds later. However, the Dynamite Pack and Explosives Deposit explode only when hit or wired to a lever or pressure plate.

    Grenades can also damage blocks like bombs but have the added Wind-Up Throw skill, making them ideal for taking down enemies and bosses.
