Gamers, strap on your gliders and tighten your gear because we're heading to one of the most thrilling and dangerous biomes in Smalland: the Ruins. This isn’t just another stroll through the Oak Forest or a lazy exploration of the Swamp. The Smalland biomes ruins are here to test your survival skills, patience, and preparation to the max. Let’s jump right in and dissect everything this biome has to offer!
Location: Welcome to the Island of Challenges
Nestled southeast of the beach and sitting all smug on its own island, the Smalland Ruins don’t exactly roll out the welcome mat. Getting here feels like you’re entering the lion’s den, but for the well-prepared, it’s a treasure trove of resources and opportunities.
Before even considering this trip, you need to ensure two things:
- You’ve mastered the art of gliding because running from enemies on this island is not an option.
- You’ve kitted yourself out with top-tier gear. The critters here don’t mess around. They bite, sting, and sometimes just outright pummel you into the dirt.
Natural Resources: Treasure Trove of the RuinsIf you’re willing to brave the dangers, the Smalland Ruins Biome offers an impressive spread of resources. Here’s what you can gather while dodging or defeating the local fauna:
- Clay: Perfect for crafting sturdy structures or items.
- Fiber: A staple in any survivalist’s inventory.
- Leaves: These always come in handy for food items.
- Nectar: A sweet reward for your troubles, used in food and healing.
- Petal: Beautiful yet practical, these will help you with certain recipes.
- Resin: For all your adhesive needs and is found in Resin Node.
- Seeds: Nothing screams survival more than seeds. This item is used to make seed oil and flour.
- Stone: Dropped by harvesting a node. Mined with Mandibular Pickaxe.
- Wood: A tried-and-true material you can never have enough of. Used to make tools, weapons, and base structures.
Pro tip: Travel light and plan your inventory space wisely. You don’t want to leave valuable resources behind just because you underestimated the loot haul.
The Enemies: Prepare to Fight or Flee
Now let’s talk about why the Ruins are not for the faint-hearted. The enemies here are not just tough—they’re relentless. Here’s who you’ll be up against:
- Lubber: A tougher and more aggressive variant of grasshoppers.
- Green Beetle: Large and annoying, these guys are easy to avoid.
- Stag Beetle: A tanky foe that demands patience and precision.
- Hornet: A stronger version of the Wasp. Don’t let them get you.
- Bull Ant: Tougher than its brethren the carpenter ant. These Feisty little warriors can pack a punch if you are a new player.
- Dawn Ant: These nocturnal terrors only come out at night, so plan your sleep cycles carefully.
- Dragonfly: Found in aquatic areas they are aggressive so better not to disturb them.
- Lizard: Larger and deadlier than Geckos. If you see one, be ready for the fight of your life.
Combat Tips
- Always have ranged weapons on hand; it’s not always smart to go toe-to-toe with these beasts.
- Use your glider for quick escapes when things get hairy.
- Take your time to scout enemy positions before diving in. The Ruins are no place for reckless heroics.
The Merchant: Your Vanguard of InterestIf there’s a silver lining to all the chaos, it’s the friendly merchant tucked away in the Ruins. Finding this guy is like discovering a diamond in the rough—and not just because of the relief from constant battle.
The Merchant specializes in metal-building base blueprints, which are essential for anyone looking to upgrade their base-building game. These blueprints will make your structures sturdier, more sophisticated, and less vulnerable to enemy attacks.
Keep in mind, though, that the Merchant doesn’t show up until later in the game. By the time you stumble upon him, you’ll have earned your stripes—and then some.
