What are you trying to do?

Survive the Rookmore scrap run

Prepare before following the marker, gather from more than enemy drops, then return to craft your first upgrade.

Getting started · Resource route

Keep your base from resetting

Check the altar boundary before building. Separate a larger building area from stronger Shroud protection.

Building · Flame Altar

Catch up with your co-op group

Read personal and world quest labels, check eligible missed quests and agree which milestones to share.

Co-op · Quest progression
A Flameborn places building blocks beside a furnished stone home in Enshrouded.

A home at the edge of the Shroud

Your construction persists inside an active Flame Altar’s protected area. Outside it, the world can regenerate. Inspect the boundary before you spend a second evening rebuilding the same wall.

Set up a protected base

Returning for 1.0?

Early Access saves can be converted for 1.0. Check your refunded skill points and reset key bindings before the next expedition. The quest journal now distinguishes personal quests from world quests; that label helps explain what your party shares.

These guides cover Windows PC launch behavior, checked 16 October 2026. PS5 controls, later patches and every missed-quest edge case have not been independently verified.
