What are ammonia glands?
Ammonia Glands come as one of the most common resources dropped by specific enemies in Enshrouded. They're fleshy sacs that seem to be organic components of the menacing beings that move about the Shroud-infested lands. In-game lore for these is fairly vague, at best, but for those looking to advance, Ammonia Glands are a vital resource among the Flameborn (player characters).
Finding the Ammonia Glands
The primary source of Ammonia Glands comes from big, red, mushroom-shaped behemoths that are indigenous to the Shroud. These are the natives of Umber
Hollow, an area within the Shroud, surrounded by it, lying somewhere between the
Nomad Highlands and Kindlewaste. But to access Umber Hollow, one must do the following first:
Enhanced Flame Altar: By enhancing your Flame Altar to level 4, Umber Hollow will be open to you, pushing back the shroud that engulfs the place. Without this upgrade, venturing into the area is impossible.
Once you've done that, head for the northern edge of Umber Hollow in the Kindlewaste. There you should find the aforementioned red, mushroom-like enemies. These beings are hostile, and all will attack once aggroed. Stand by for battle and pull off some successful tactics to vanquish them.
Efficient farming of ammonia glands
Here are a few hints that should get you well on your way to optimizing your Ammonia Gland farming.
Ranged: Ranged-type enemies are prone to. Due to the ability to use a bow and an arrow, or ranged spells, one can be able to deliver damage from a distance, hence reducing the chances of being hit by their attacks.
Focus on the Red Sacs: The primary location for Ammonia Glands on the back of this creature is fleshy, with red sacs. Aim your attacks primarily at these sacs for better drops.
Loot Explosions: On death, they explode, leaving a poisonous cloud in its radius. Wait until the cloud disappears and then approach the body to loot the creature and loot the Ammonia Glands, which should have dropped out.
Ammonia Glands and Their Applications
There are two major ways the Ammonia Glands are utilized in
- Upgrade the Flame Altar: One of the most important usages of the Ammonia Glands is in upgrading the Flame Altar to level 5, further increasing the protection against the Shroud and access to the previously inaccessible.
- Crafting Resources: In addition, Ammonia Glands are used in combination with other resources to craft a variety of items. Most importantly, they are part and parcel of refining animal fur into Leather and concocting the powerful alchemical recipe for the spell Eternal Acid Bite.
At the moment, the only known source of Ammonia Glands is the red, fungus-like creatures existing in the Shroud-covered Umber Hollow.
As with any death in Enshrouded, you'll drop your equipped items and a portion of your accumulated resources, including any Ammonia Glands in your inventory. You can recover these dropped items by returning them to your corpse before it despawns.
The Flame Altar can be upgraded above Level 4 with certain resources that can be scouted or obtained by completing certain quests. Ammonia Glands are obtained to level it up to Level 5.
The exact count of Ammonia Glands displayed in the game user interface for the upgrade to level 5 isn't explicit. But by dedicated farming, you should expect to gather a lot.

These "boring" Ammonia Glands will be critical to your advancement in Enshrouded.
