Please take note I have misunderstood the Rake Mechanic completely - I will need to make another guide for this to explain it better. Some of it I would call an exploit, which might eventually be fixed - but the factual use for the rake is still pretty useful!

I’m with you ha😅

This has to be one of the most impressive and fun building system in almost every survival game I've ever player.

I absolutely love the terrain manipulation in Enshrouded! It opens up so many more creative options in building. This game grabbed me in the demo, but now it is quickly becoming my #1 game. Keen nailed exploration. Dying doesn't make me want to shut the game down like Valheim (which I love and have 1,500+ hours in). I don't suffer frustration over hours of lost progress. Or how in the world I'm going to get my stuff back. Instead I feel inspired to get right back out there, retrieve my stuff and carry on. Yesterday I accidentally glided into some lava in the shroud. I thought my stuff was surely gone, but instead my corpse marker was there right on the edge of the lava. Nice! The world is huge and incredibly diverse. The huge, old growth forest biome is simply the best forest that I have ever wandered in in any game. Period. Travel around the huge map is just right with the mix of gliders, running and the Ancient Spires. I can't wait to explore the savanna and the desert biomes. Every time I head out to complete a specific task/quest (like getting the saw blade for the carpenter), it turns into a three day adventure, like every time! That speaks volumes to me in terms of immersion. Two hours later: "Wait what did I come out here for?" lol Building is taking a little getting used to, especially if you have clocked a lot of build time in Valheim, but it is rich with building tiles, decorations and crafting stations to suit any creative palette. Those who are into hardcore, FP combat (Ex. Final Fantasy XVI) will likely not be impressed, but for me it's fun, fluid and action packed. The grapple can give me a backdoor escape as well as get me to specific places. I really appreciate the handcrafted map. Many times already in a very sketchy place trying to sneak around danger, I find a ledge or an alcove to slip into, and it's clear it was placed there for that purpose. Happy camper here! : )

The game was very forgiving yesterday, dying in the canyony shroud because I missed the glide and waking up to my tombstone in front of my nose at the flame altar I put down jic was a nice feeling. Game crashed in a spire and same thing again, tombstone right in front of me at my previous altar a few cliffs back. Like the op said, makes for much less frustrating gameplay. Mind you, I have lost my stuff completely in the red lava a number of times near the Ancient Bridge 🙄😁

Definitely don't give the rake enough credit. It is supreme for leveling out an area, not -simply- flattening it, because it will lift the ground up to match elevation as well. But more importantly, it spreads terrain. You can use a single farm soil, flower, or road block and then freely spread it around.

@The-B-Side

There is a big downside. The camera. It can't work in tight spaces and the distance to aim your template is limited, as there is no freecam to do the work cleanly. First person would fix this easily as you can have pinpoint accuracy, and freecam would aid in building up in the sky.

@The-B-Side

The Camera is a bit of problem - It is possible to zoom in and out the camera, but it is still limited. You can also move the build part further or closer - but in close quarters, it can be hard.

Materials you get by mining them. Many of them are in new Biomes that might be blocked still by Red shroud. I will be working on a video talking about the rake and how I missed out on the mechanic.. I should share a few terrain locations in there.

if i dig inside of a mountain and build a base there what happens if i relog? Will the mountain respawn over my base or the altar will prevent that?

@The-B-Side

The Altar should prevent terrain refill or the base de spawning (at least everything inside the Altar Radius). I am saying SHOULD - as this is still early access, and I did receive some reports of altars disappearing after logging back in.

Very cool. But how do you get around the fact that any terrain manipulation gets completely reset upon loading back into the game? They did SO good with the voxels, but totally failed in that regard.

I'm pretty sure that every other video I've seen didn't place, and then remove the terrain - there is a "Remove" menu option, and I'm certain that they were just hitting that, which carves out a space based on the shape you've selected - without ever having to first place something down, as shown in this video.

@The-B-Side

You can remove terrain (as shown at 1:30) by using the terrain block options. However, the blocks are smaller and less reliable to snap.

@Galiant2010

5 ай бұрын

It's a snapping/consistency issue. With foundations you can clear a perfect 4x4x4 foundation space and all of the walls will line up perfectly. Great for if you're building a basement and want convenient wall/ceiling/floor snapping to line up with the rest of the building.

Surely digging a tunnel under the mist would result in mists inside the tunnel.

@The-B-Side

Probably - did not try... 😊

@Galiant2010

That would depend on how the devs placed the mist. Some areas it might work, others might not. But regardless it wouldn't be convenient because of how long it takes and needing an altar to be fast about it and save the tunnel, and you can't be doing that for every zone of mist.

Does the terrain not grow back to its normal form ?

It's not dumb. It's intentional. Part of the lore of the mist reclaiming the land outside of the protection of your altar. And it's what also lets you reliably mine the same sources around the world for materials.
