The latest update for Enshoruded has added a ton of new content to the game, including a number of different collectible fossils. Fossils in this game are unique items that can be found all across Embervale. While some are easy to find, most fossils can be pretty challenging to find.
In this guide, we will be looking at where you can find every fossil in the Nomad Highlands and Kindlewastes biomes. If you are someone who loves collecting unique items, make sure you don’t miss any of the fossils in these areas.
All Fossils in the Nomad Highlands & Kindlewastes Biomes
There are a total of 7 fossils located in the Nomad Highlands and Kindlewastes biomes. Our guide will look at the exact location of each fossil on your map, and where you can find these fossils. So without further delay, let’s get straight into it.
Fossil 1 – Sharp Shark Tooth
For the Sharp Shark Tooth, you will need to make your way to Smothering Pit.
Once you are there, look for a cave entrance with a torch inside it. The image above shows the cave you need to go inside.
Follow the path that leads into this cave, and you will eventually find yourself in front of a Tin deposit. The Sharp Shark Tooth is buried within this deposit, so you will need to mine your way to it.
Use your pickaxe to mine the Tin Deposit, and after a few hits to it, you will be able to collect the Shark Shark Tooth.
Fossil 2 – Dull Shark Tooth
For the next fossil, you will need to make your way to the waypoint marked on the map above. This location is just south of the Cradle of Dusk.
When you get to the marked location, use the staircase there to make your way down.
Once you are down, mine your way through the rublle infront of you to get to the Dull Shark Tooth.
With most of the rubble gone, you can easily collect the Dull Shark Tooth.
Fossil 3 – Larger Sea Lily Fossil
To get the Larger Sea Lily Fossil, you will need to make your way to the Mining Rift location.
When you get to the Mining Rift, look for a wall with a metal fence on it that you can use to climb. The image above shows the wall you need to use.
After climbing the wall, you will see a deposit on a platform ahead. The fossil we are looking for is burried within this deposit.
When you get to the platform, you can clear the deposit by shooting at the explosive barrels next to the deposit. You can shoot the barrels using your bow and arrow.
With the deposit clear, you will find the Larger Sea Lily Fossil right in front of you, allowing you to collect the fossil.
Fossil 4 – Smaller Sea Lily Fossil
The Smaller Sea Lily Fossil can be found very close to the larger one. You will need to make your way to the waypoint marked on the image above. This place can be found a little bit to the east of the Mining Rift.
At the location, you will find a wooden structure in front of you. Climb this structure to get to the fossil.
The Smaller Sea Lily Fossil is burried beneath the rocks right next to a tree.
Like before, use your pickaxe to clear up the rocks and access the fossil waiting for you beneath the rocks.
Fossil 5 – Prawn Fossil
For the Prawn Fossil, you will need to make your way to the Ternion Mine. This is a brand new location which was added to the game with the latest update.
Inside the Ternion Mines, the fossil can be found on top of rocks that have sulfure on then. You wont need to do any mining here, as the fossil will be clearly visible when you are in front it..
Fossil 6 – Fish Fossil
To get the Fish Fossil, you will need to go to the Sun Temple.
While the fossil can be found inside the temple, you will need to complete a short puzzle to get into the Sun Temple.All you need to do here is shoot the 3 swithces surrounding the Sun Temple entrance. You will find the first switch on the left side of the Sun Temple door.
The second switch is found on the right side of the temple door.
For the final switch, instantly turn backwards after activating the second switch, and you will find the last switch above you.
As soon as you enter the temple, look to your left and you will find a pile of rubble there. The Fish Fossil is inside a room on the other side of this rubble. You can mine through this rubble by using your always reliable pickaxe.
The room behind the rubble will have the Fish Fossil, but alongside that, there will also be an enemy here. Its best to deal with this enemy before going for the fossil.
Fossil 7 – Crab Fossil
To get the Crab Fossil, you will need to make your way to the point marked on the map above.
Once you are at the marked location, you will need to go through a pair of large doors leading into a dungeon.
You will encounter a bunch of enemies and a boss fight here. If you are interested in quickly getting the Crab fossil and getting out of here, you can simply run past these enemies. Once you are past these enemies, climb the wall in front of you to get the fossil.
The Crab fossil can be found in the chest located at the end of this area.
So there you have it, a complete guide on where to find each fossil located within the Nomad Highlands and Kindlewastes biomes. For more fossil locations, check out our guide on all the fossils in the Springlands biome.
