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

Map location for the Sharp Shark Tooth

For the Sharp Shark Tooth, you will need to make your way to Smothering Pit.

Cave you need to go inside

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.

The Sharp Shark Tooth is burried within this Tin ore

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.

The Sharp Shark Tooth

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

map location for the 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.

Staircase you need to go down from

When you get to the marked location, use the staircase there to make your way down.

Fossil 3 – Larger Sea Lily Fossil

map location for the larger Sea Lily Fossil

To get the Larger Sea Lily Fossil, you will need to make your way to the Mining Rift location.

Wall you need to climb inside the Mining Rift

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.

The fossil is burried within the marked deposit

After climbing the wall, you will see a deposit on a platform ahead. The fossil we are looking for is burried within this deposit.

Barrel you need to shoot at to clear the 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.

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

map location for the Fish Fossil

To get the Fish Fossil, you will need to go to the Sun Temple.

Rubble blocking the path into the room with the fossil inside it.

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 that has the Fish Fossil and an enemy guarding it

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

map location for the Crab Fossil.

To get the Crab Fossil, you will need to make your way to the point marked on the map above.

Enshrouded’s latest update has added a ton of new items in the game for you to find and collect. Fossils are new collectible items that you can find all throughout Embervale. As they are collectible items, each fossil in this game is unique and can be found at fixed locations.

In this guide, we will be looking at all the fossils that you can find in Embervale’s Springlands Biome.

All Fossils in the Springlands Biome

The Springlands Biome in Embervale has a total of 5 different fossils that you can find and collect. All of these fossils are spread out around the biome, with some being very difficult to find.

For our guide, we will be looking at the map location for each fossil, and alongside that, where to mine them from. So, without further ado, let’s get straight into it.

Fossil 1 – Big Ammonite

map location for big ammonite

For the Big Ammonite fossil, you will need to make your way to the Saline Quarry area. This area can be found just east of the Cinder Vault.

Big Ammonite

You will find the Big Ammonite on top of a salt deposit at the marked location. Once you’ve found the Big Ammonite, you can collect it by simply walking up to it and pressing E on your keyboard.

Fossil 2 – Sea Urchin Cluster

map location for the sea urchin cluster

The map above shows the exact location of the Sea Urchin Cluster. You can get to this point by traveling southwest from the Low Meadows Ancient Spire.

Sea urchin cluster

Climbing the structure will lead you straight to the Sea Urchin Cluster. Like before, you can get this fossil by simply collecting it.

Fossil 3 – Elevated Sea Urchin

map location for the elevated sea urchin

For the Elevated Sea Urchin, you will need to travel a little bit to the south from the Low Meadows Ancient Spire.

The elevated sea urchin is behind these rocks

Unlike the fossils we’ve seen so far, the Elevated Sea Urchin can be a bit hard to find. This is due to the fossil being well hidden between a bunch of rocks. The image above shows the exact cluster of rocks you need to go up to collect the Elevated Sea Urchin.

Fossil 4 – Ammonite Imprint

critter nest location

For the Ammonite Imprint, you will need to make your way to the Critter Nest seen on the map above. You can find this nest right next to the Egerton Salt Mines.

Path on the southern entrance of the salt mines

In order to get inside the Critter Nest, start at the southern entrance of the Egerton Salt Mines and follow the path in front of you.

jump down from here all the way to the bottom

Following this path will get you to a wooden ledge. Drop all the way down from here using the platforms in front of you.

path you need to follow once you are down

Once you are down, follow the path marked in the image above.

wooden stairs you need to go up from

Following this path will eventually lead you to a set of wooden stairs. Make your way up these stairs and you will find the entrance to the Critters Nest right in front of you.

the ammonite imprint fossil

Enter the nest and drop down to find the Ammonite Imprint waiting for you on the wall in front of you.

Fossil 5 – Round Sea Urchin

map location for the round sea urchin

For the final fossil in the Springlands Biome, make your way to the waypoint highlighted in the image above. You can get to this point by traveling northwest from Ancient Spire – Springlands.

hitting the rubble with your pickaxe

Once you get to the marked location, you will find a cave entrance that will be blocked by a bunch of rubble. The Round Sea Urchin is buried inside this rubble, so you will need to mine your way to it.

The Round Sea Urching inside the rubble

Hitting the rubble 2-3 times with your pickaxe will clear up most of it, allowing you to collect the Round Sea Urchin.

So there you have it, a complete guide on where to find all the fossils located in the Springlands Biome. For more fossil locations, check out our guide on all fossils in the Nomad Highlands and Kindlewastes Biome.

Enshrouded has a ton of cool armor sets that you can find and collect, and the game’s latest update has just added another extremely strong armor set. The Elite Hollow armor set has great stats and also looks pretty slick when worn.

That said, the full armor set can be a bit difficult to get. The pieces are all found in different locations, with some being extremely well hidden. Our guide will look at where each individual armor piece can be found.

How to Get the Elite Hollow Armor Set

Like most armor sets in Enshrouded, the Elite Hollow armor set is made up of 5 different armor pieces.

  • Helmet
  • Gloves
  • Boots
  • Pants
  • Chest Plate
map location for the Hollow Halls

All 5 armor pieces can be found inside the Kindlewastes Hollow Halls location. So where in the Hollow Halls can each armor piece be found?

Helmet

Turn left from here

For the Elite Hollow helmet, turn left into the first big hallway you find inside the Hollow Halls.

Glide down towards the red arrow

From here, you will need to go all the way to the end of this path. You can use your glider to make this journey much quicker.

drop down to get to the chamber

Following the path will lead you to a ledge with a drop below. Use your glider to make your way down from here. When landing below, avoid landing on the bright red surface, as landing there will deal damage to you.

the chamber you need to go in

Once you are down, you will need to enter a small hidden chamber, the door for which can be found on the wall you just came down from. The image above shows what this door looks like.

crack in the wall you need to go through

The path inside the chamber is pretty linear. You will need to make your way down using a ladder, after which you will need to find a wall with a small opening in it.

chest containing the helmet

Go inside the small opening, and you will find the chest containing the Elite Hollow Helmet. Take the helmet from inside the chest and make your way outside the chamber the same way you came in from.

Gloves

After exiting the chamber, turn right and climb onto the bridge in front of you.

go straight from the bridge

Once you are on the bridge, follow the path in front of you until you reach a ledge.

Like before, you must use your glider to cross the area before you. The path here will be quite long, but it is pretty straightforward.

platform you will land on when gliding down

Following the path on your glider will eventually lead you to the part of the Hollow Halls seen in the image above.

door leading to the gloves

As soon as you land here, you will be able to see a door on your left side. This door leads to the chest containing the Elite Hollow gloves, but this door will be locked, so you will need to unlock it to go inside.

To open this door, you will need to use your bow and arrow to shoot at the 2 switches above the door. The image above shows both of the switches you need to shoot at.

the gloves inside a chest

Doing that will open up the locked door, allowing you to go inside and take the Elite Hollow gloves from the chest there.

Boots

where you need to go to for the boots

With the gloves in your possession, go back outside the door you just opened, and continue your journey into the Hollow Halls.

turn right from here

Keep on going straight here until you reach a point where there will be one hallway to your right and one to your left. You will need to go right from here to get to the boots.

chest containing the boots

Following the path in front of you will take you straight to the boots. The Elite Hollow boots can be found inside the tomb here. Take the boots from inside the tomb and make your way back towards the place you turned right from.

Pants

turn left from here

For the Elite Hollow Pants, you will need to turn left from the point where you turned right for the boots.

make your way down the staircase

As soon as you turn left, look to your right and you will see a hallway that will lead you towards a staircase going down. The image above shows what this staircase looks like. You will need to go down this staircase and follow the path going deeper into the Hollow Halls.

turn right from here and make your way up the stairs

The path in front of you here is fully linear, and you will need to follow this path until you can’t go straight anymore. From there, turn right and make your way up using a staircase.

use your grappling hook to get to the ledge above

The way forward from here will require you to climb up quite a bit. That said, the path in front of you is pretty straightforward.

shock traps you need to avoid

Eventually, you will find yourself in front of a room with a bunch of electric traps inside it. These traps will continuously shoot out electricity, but each time they send out one projectile, you will have a small opening to go through. Wait for a trap to shoot out electricity, and as soon as it does, quickly make your way past it and wait for the next trap to do the same.

Once you get past the electric traps, keep on going forward until you reach the ledge seen in the image above. You will once again need to use your glider to make the journey down from here.

Glide through the caves, and eventually, you will find yourself on the platform shown in the image above.

the platform you need to get to for the chest

Once you land on the platform, instantly turn left and you will find a small hidden platform there. The image above shows points to where this platform is.

the chest containing the pants

You will find another tomb-like chest on this platform, with the Elite Hollow Pants inside this chest. Take the pants and continue on your journey through the Hollow Halls.

Chest Plate

go straight here

For the chest plate, make your way through the room shown in the image above. This is the same room you went left from for the pants.

jump onto the wall and climb it

Keep going forward from here until you reach a ledge with a wall in front of you that you can climb. Jump onto the wall and climb up using it.

place where you can use your grappling hook

You will eventually get to a ledge where you will be able to use your grappling hook to go forward. Unlike the other grappling hooks in these Hollow Halls, this grappling hook does not have a platform that you can land on. Instead, you will quickly need to use your grappling hook again to attach yourself to another point.

There are 4 points over here that you must use your grappling hook on, after which you can jump onto a platform.

platform you need to get to using the grappling hook

As soon as you land on the platform, turn left and look up to find a ledge there. You can use your grappling hook to get on to this ledge.

wall you need to climb

Once you are on that ledge, look behind you and jump onto the climbable wall. Climb all the way to the top of this wall and keep going forward until you reach a ledge.

glide down from here

To go forward from the ledge, you will once again need to use your glider.

platform you will land on after gliding down

This is probably the longest path through which you will need to use a glider. That said, the path is pretty straightforward and easy to follow. Just make sure you have enough stamina for the journey.

go straight from here

The way forward after you land is fully straight. There will be a ton of enemies here though, so be prepared for them when going through this area.

chest containing the chest plate

Right at the end of this area, you will finally find the chest containing the last armor piece. With the Elite Hollow chest plate in your possession, your full armor set will be complete.

So there you have it, a thorough guide on where to find the complete Elith Hollow armor set in Enshrouded.

Enshrouded – All Fossils in the Revelwoods Biome

Update 0.7.3.0. for Enshrouded has added a bunch of neat collectibles you can find around the world, such as all the fossils in the Revelwoods biome.

These fossils are required for the new “Finding Fossils” quests, though they don’t really do much by themselves. They’re simply neat collectibles that you can find while exploring and display at your base!

In this guide, we’ll tell you all of the known locations for fossils in the Revelwoods biome.

All Fossils in the Revelwoods Biome | Enshrouded 0.7.3.0

Enshrouded - Back to the Shroud Update gameplay

There are four fossils in the Revelwoods Biome in Enshrouded. They are the Gastropods, Single Gastropod, Trilobites, and Trilobite Imprint.

However, you should know that none of them have a set spawn location. There are spots where fossils always spawn, but which ones you get are different for everybody. As such, we can’t tell you where to get any specific fossil!

This also means that there are actually more than 4 locations where you can find all of the Revelwoods fossils in Enshrouded. Just in case, we’ll be telling you every single location we know of!

Location 1 – Mark of Sameth Barrels

Mark of Sameth location

The first location we’ll check out is the Mark of Sameth. It’s west of the Ancient Spire in the Revelwoods and it’s pretty easy to reach if you have a decent glider. Make sure to bring a pickaxe and some sort of fire, such as a Fireball spell.

Mark of Sameth barrels

Once you reach the Mark of Sameth encampment, enter it and go straight ahead going northwest. You should eventually notice a set of red barrels to your right.

Explosions!

Use fire on them to blow them up and to create a tiny crater.

Mark of Sameth barrels fossil

The fossil will be in the middle of the crate after the explosion.

Location 2 – Mark of Sameth Cave

Mark of Sameth cave

This location is also in the Mark of Sameth area, so you can check it right after the previous one. Just go back to the entrance to the Mark of Sameth encampment and look for a cave on the left cliff.

Gliding to the cave

The fastest way to reach it is by climbing the cliff to the right of the Mark of Sameth camp, but it can be fairly tricky. Once you reach a high enough part of the cliff, you can just glide down into the cave.

Cleaning the rubble

When you’re inside the small cave, use a pickaxe to clean up the rubble behind the chest.

Mark of Sameth cave fossil

The fossil will appear from under the rubble! Pick it up and you’re done here.

Location 3 – Eastern Cave

Eastern Cave location

This fossil location is on a non-descript cave on the eastern part of the Revelwoods biome. We’ve marked it on the map above, as well as the Ancient Spire in the Revelwoods for reference.

Eastern Cave fossil

Simply enter the cave and check the western wall. You should find some rubble with a red glow marking the fossil.

Location 4 – Revelwoods Frontier Fissure

Revelwoods Frontier Fissure

You can find this fossil location far to the east of the Revelwoods Ancient Spire. As you can see on the map, it’s close to a Flame Sanctum and a Catacombs. However, the spot is covered with Shroud so make sure that you’re ready to head in.

Revelwoods Frontier Fissure entrance

Once you’re in the area marked above, look for a fissure full of Shroud on the ground. It’ll be near a large rock covered in mushrooms and a cliff covered in crystals.

Revelwoods Frontier Fissure fossil

Head into the fissure and go to its northernmost part to find a large round sedimentary rock. The fossil will be sitting on top of the rock, marked by the telltale red glow.

Location 5 – Trade Outpost “Old Rye”

Trade Outpost “Old Rye” location

For this one, you will need to head into the Shroud-covered area in Revelwoods and find the Trade Outpost “Old Rye”. Due to the Shroud making it extremely hard to see in the area, we recommend following the map to find the outpost. Also, be sure you’re aptly prepared to traverse the Shroud and deal with the enemies in the area.

Gliding to the outpost

We recommend fast-traveling to the Ancient Spire in the Revelwoods biome and gliding down into the Shroud. It’s the fastest and easiest way to reach this trade outpost!

Trade Outpost “Old Rye” glow

It can be hard to see in the area, but you’re likely to find the Trade Outpost “Old Rye” by looking for the red glow of the items inside.

Trade Outpost “Old Rye” fossil

Once you enter the outpost, just look on the ground to find one of the fossils.

Location 6 – Spider Cave

Spider Cave location

You can find this one directly south of the Ancient Spire in the Revelwoods, inside one of the many caves in the area. Make sure to have a Grappling Hook for this one!

Spider Cave entrance

Once you reach the spot marked on the map, look for a cave entrance covered in bioluminescent mushrooms.

Spider Cave fossil up the ledge

Head directly inside the cave and then take the first right you can. You should instantly see a red glow in front of you on an upper ledge. Use your Grappling Hook to pull yourself toward the ledge.

Spider Cave fossil

You’ll find the fossil hidden beneath the spider webs up on the ledge.

That’s all of the fossils and their locations in the Revelwoods biome in Enshrouded! There are more locations than fossils, so you shouldn’t need to visit all of these locations in one playthrough. Nonetheless, we hope this helped you get these nice collectibles!

How do you like your survival games? A nice bit of wood chopping while the birds chirp? Gathering some mushrooms while you deflect a little goblin's swings? Stumbling parched through a desert as a bed of scorpions prick your ankles with deadly venom? Well, Enshrouded may provide some or none of these experiences, but what its latest update does is capture their spirit. You'll now be able to choose from several difficulty presets to dampen or spice up the game's challenge. Otherwise, there's new customisation options and some quality of life tweaks, too.

This whole round of suvival game focus started for me because the makers of No Man’s Sky, Hello Games, announced their coming title, Light No Fire.  The promise of that got me worked up on the genre once more.

Light no Fire… not in 2024 at least

That led to me looking into some possible Valheim alternatives… Valheim being my current gold standard for open world, co-op suvival titles… during the Steam Winter Sale.  I actually bought some things and played them!

But none of them quite scratched the right itch and while I got more suggestions, eventually I just wanted to play something, so we kicked off a new Valheim world.  Done and done, right?

Of course, the day I put down the credit card to rent a server for 30 days and roll up a fresh world one of the possible alternative candidates, Conan Exiles, goes on sale for half off.  I wasn’t willing to experiment for $40, but for $20 I might have.

But I was committed and wanted to play something, though I wasn’t so invested in Valheim that I couldn’t have been derailed… but nothing quite caused me to be so moved.

First up was Palworld, or Pokemon with Guns, which by reasonable measures… dollah dollah bills… has been a huge success and has sold millions of copies.   This seemed to be right up my alley, to the point that G-Portal even had server rentals for it right away.  This featured on a number of blogs I followed.

I thought about jumping into this… but wasn’t quite convinced.  Close, but not quite there.

Then there was Enshrounded, which is also on my Steam wishlist and which also tickled the shared world co-op aspect of my desires, and which was also featured on G-Portal server rentals, and which had also grabbed the interest of some other bloggers.  It sounded good and I thought about grabbing it, yet another early access title.  But I haven’t so far.

And then this week Nightengale landed on Steam, once again in the suvival co-op crafting genre, and once again grabbing a few people I know, including a couple of the bloggers in the neighborhood. (Belghast was on about it yesterday, as was Bhagpuss.)  It is in early access and might need some work, but it did catch my eye.  Private servers are not a thing it seems, instead you can share your part of their world with just your friends if I read things correctly… which also means when thier servers are down you’re not playing.

I am sure there was also something else out there that popped up… Last Epoch maybe, or was it some other title… I don’t remember all of them.  But it did feel like the universe had decided to mock me a bit for my desire for a Valheim-like co-op experience by throwing all of these new and tempting options at me after I committed to the Valheim.

Then again, I am happy playing Valhelm right now.  It has an ease about it that can soak up hours of time,  We have been moving through the opening biomes at a quick pace, but that has been helped along by mods and familiarity, which isn’t a bad thing.  I suspect that we will slow down a bit at the plains, and that the mistlands will take us long enough to conquor that the ashlands will have finally arrived by the time we finish off that boss, which will give us another biome to master.

So I feel the temptation of these other titles, the fear of missing out if I am not there at the beginning the way I was for Valheim.

On the other hand, if those titles are any good, they’ll be there waiting for us.  And I also know that the last three years has seen Valheim improve a great deal.  As the song says, fools rush in… and sometimes they get the best seats, and other times they pay the price for being too early on the scene.

This whole round of suvival game focus started for me because the makers of No Man’s Sky, Hello Games, announced their coming title, Light No Fire.  The promise of that got me worked up on the genre once more.

Light no Fire… not in 2024 at least

That led to me looking into some possible Valheim alternatives… Valheim being my current gold standard for open world, co-op suvival titles… during the Steam Winter Sale.  I actually bought some things and played them!

But none of them quite scratched the right itch and while I got more suggestions, eventually I just wanted to play something, so we kicked off a new Valheim world.  Done and done, right?

Of course, the day I put down the credit card to rent a server for 30 days and roll up a fresh world one of the possible alternative candidates, Conan Exiles, goes on sale for half off.  I wasn’t willing to experiment for $40, but for $20 I might have.

But I was committed and wanted to play something, though I wasn’t so invested in Valheim that I couldn’t have been derailed… but nothing quite caused me to be so moved.

First up was Palworld, or Pokemon with Guns, which by reasonable measures… dollah dollah bills… has been a huge success and has sold millions of copies.   This seemed to be right up my alley, to the point that G-Portal even had server rentals for it right away.  This featured on a number of blogs I followed.

I thought about jumping into this… but wasn’t quite convinced.  Close, but not quite there.

Then there was Enshrounded, which is also on my Steam wishlist and which also tickled the shared world co-op aspect of my desires, and which was also featured on G-Portal server rentals, and which had also grabbed the interest of some other bloggers.  It sounded good and I thought about grabbing it, yet another early access title.  But I haven’t so far.

And then this week Nightengale landed on Steam, once again in the suvival co-op crafting genre, and once again grabbing a few people I know, including a couple of the bloggers in the neighborhood. (Belghast was on about it yesterday, as was Bhagpuss.)  It is in early access and might need some work, but it did catch my eye.  Private servers are not a thing it seems, instead you can share your part of their world with just your friends if I read things correctly… which also means when thier servers are down you’re not playing.

I am sure there was also something else out there that popped up… Last Epoch maybe, or was it some other title… I don’t remember all of them.  But it did feel like the universe had decided to mock me a bit for my desire for a Valheim-like co-op experience by throwing all of these new and tempting options at me after I committed to the Valheim.

Then again, I am happy playing Valhelm right now.  It has an ease about it that can soak up hours of time,  We have been moving through the opening biomes at a quick pace, but that has been helped along by mods and familiarity, which isn’t a bad thing.  I suspect that we will slow down a bit at the plains, and that the mistlands will take us long enough to conquor that the ashlands will have finally arrived by the time we finish off that boss, which will give us another biome to master.

So I feel the temptation of these other titles, the fear of missing out if I am not there at the beginning the way I was for Valheim.

On the other hand, if those titles are any good, they’ll be there waiting for us.  And I also know that the last three years has seen Valheim improve a great deal.  As the song says, fools rush in… and sometimes they get the best seats, and other times they pay the price for being too early on the scene.
