Enshrouded: How to Get Shroud Cores

Shroud Cores are an advanced crafting material in Enshrouded, and you’ll do well to figure out how to get them as soon as possible.

You can use them to upgrade your base past a certain level, as well as to craft the extremely useful Magical Chests. You’ll want to get as many Shroud Cores as possible, and quickly!

Don’t know where to find those Shroud Cores? Well, let us help you with your search by telling you where to look.

How to Get Shroud Cores

There are only two ways to get Shroud Cores in Enshrouded as of now.

The first one is to kill the Wraith enemies, which are most common around the Elixir Wells. They are tall emaciated ghost entities, and taking them on can be quite a challenge for the unprepared!

If you’re ready for the challenge, though, you’ll find that the Wraiths drop Shroud Cores very frequently on death. This makes them the fastest source of this rare material!

Alternatively, though, you can also craft them yourself. To do so, you will first need to find the Alchemist and place him inside of your base.

Once you’ve done that, speak to the Alchemist to open his crafting menu and you’ll find the Shroud Cores in the “Resources” category.

Both of those materials are pretty easy to come across if you explore areas where the Shroud is most prevalent.

That said, gathering dozens of them to craft Shroud Cores is definitely slower than just hunting down Wraiths, despite being easier.

However, Wraiths can become a joke if you farm powerful Legendary weapons and upgrade your weapons to give yourself an edge.

Either way, now you know the only two ways there are to get Shroud Cores. Just choose if you want a riskier and faster method, or you’ll go with a slower but safer method!
