Enshrouded 1.0 Resource Locations: Goo, Amber, Reptile Leather

You need goo for a recipe or amber and reptile leather for the next armor piece, and the tooltip only names a biome. This guide covers the materials people look up most since Enshrouded 1.0: goo, amber, reptile leather, shroud mushrooms, mycelium and gems, plus the Bridge Construction Report quest and its hidden chest.

The game facts come from Keen Games' 1.0 changelog and the official Enshrouded Wiki, which players write and maintain. We opened every page on 1 November 2026. Region names follow our Enshrouded map guide.

Quick answer: Most of these materials come from the Revelwood Shroud. Enshrouded goo is crafted, not found: the Alchemist makes it at his Mortar from 1 Bug Dust, 2 Shroud Mushrooms and 1 Springlands Dirt. Amber is mined from red amber veins in the Revelwood Shroud, and shroud mushrooms come from chopping the tall mushroom stalks in that same Shroud. Reptile leather is made at a Drying Rack from 1 Reptile Hide and 3 Salt, and the hide drops from Snapjaws, which live in the tar pits of the Blackmire and also appear in the Veilwater Basin. Mycelium is mined from the ground inside the Shroud. Most weapon gems drop from specific enemies, such as the Fell Banshee in the Springlands. The Bridge Construction Report is a lore note at the Small Flint Mine that leads to a chest in the middle pillar of Braelyn Bridge.

Where Each Resource Is

One warning: for 1.0, Keen reworked the terrain, plants and forests of the Springlands, Revelwood, Blackmire and Nomad Highlands. A material still belongs to the same region, but a spot described on a wiki page from before 15 October 2026 can look different now. Where a page we used predates 1.0, we say so.

How to Get Goo in Enshrouded

Goo is "a sticky paste used to bind chemical substances", in the wiki's words, and you will not find it lying around. You craft it at the Alchemist, Balthazar. The recipe as the wiki lists it on its Shroud Mushroom page, last edited on 29 October 2026:

• 1 Bug Dust
• 2 Shroud Mushrooms
• 1 Springlands Dirt
• Station: the Alchemist's Mortar, instant, 1 Goo per craft

The Mortar is missing when you first rescue Balthazar. He sends you to look for it in his tower: "I suspect I left it in my tower's basement in Lone Thistle." Lone Thistle is a settlement in the Revelwood, and bringing the Mortar back is the quest The Alchemist's Mortar.

Where the three ingredients come from:

• Bug Dust is made at the same Mortar from 1 Critter Parts. Critter Parts are "a common drop from the Fell Critters found in the Springlands and Revelwood Shroud", 1 to 2 per critter, and Yellow Stingers drop 1 to 5.
• Shroud Mushrooms grow in the Revelwood Shroud, see the next section.
• Springlands Dirt is the ordinary ground of the Springlands, which you mine with your pickaxe.

One trip into the Revelwood Shroud gives you the mushrooms and, from the critters you fight there, the parts for Bug Dust. Goo goes into a long list of recipes. A few from the wiki's Goo page: 2 for a Quick Stack Station, 2 for a Steel Wall Lamp, 1 per 5 Flammable Goo at the Laboratory and 5 per 20 charges of the Acid Bite spell. That page was last edited in June 2026, so check the amounts in your crafting menu.

Enshrouded Shroud Mushroom Locations

"Shroud Mushrooms are obtained from chopping down mushroom stalks in the Revelwood Shroud", says the wiki. You use an axe on them, the same way you cut a tree. The tall stalks grow "throughout the Revelwood Shroud": in dense clusters where enemies gather, and as single stalks along paths and in open areas. A bigger stalk gives more mushrooms.

You cannot eat the mushroom. You need it for Goo (2 each), the Flask of the Fell (10, with 10 Active Mycelium and 1 Strawberry) and the Adventurer Helmet.

Your Shroud timer runs while you chop. Since 1.0, hourglass capsules lie in many more places in the Shroud and each adds about 70% more time, per Keen, and large Fell enemies drop them too.

Where to Find Amber in Enshrouded

Amber is "mined from red amber veins in the Revelwood Shroud", per the wiki. Its amber page names one spot: "Several deposits of amber can be found in the deep shroud cavity between Abandoned Hunter Camp and Hidden Hollow Tomb", north of the Revelwood Ancient Spire. That page was last edited on 17 September 2026, before Keen reworked the Revelwood, so use it as a direction to search rather than an exact pin.

Mine more than the first recipe asks for. Amber goes into armor, wands and fire spells, such as the Mage Chest, the Cryptic Wand and Fireball II, and Eternal Fireball I alone takes 25.

How to Get Reptile Leather in Enshrouded

Reptile leather takes two steps.

1. Get Reptile Hide from Snapjaws. The wiki describes the Snapjaw as "a giant reptile, living in the Blackmire swamps". It lives in the mud and tar pits of the Blackmire, the wiki lists the Veilwater Basin as a second region, and it is the only enemy that drops Reptile Hide, 0 to 1 per kill, so plan for a few fights. Snapjaws "are unable to leave their tar pits", which makes them easy to avoid when you are not hunting them.
2. Dry the hide with salt. At a Drying Rack, 1 Reptile Hide and 3 Salt make 3 Reptile Leather in one minute. You get the Drying Rack recipe when you rescue the Hunter in the quest Hunter Becomes The Hunted, and the Hunter crafts the rack from 10 Wood Logs and 6 String.

Salt "is mined from salt deposits in the Springlands", at the Egerton Salt Mines and the Saline Quarry. The Hunter's first quest, Salt Mine Location, already sends you to the Egerton Salt Mines.

The wiki's Snapjaw page says Reptile Hide goes into some ranged armor, the Medium Backpack and the pocket Heater. A related but separate item is Water Reptile Leather, made the same way at the Drying Rack from Water Reptile Hide, which "is dropped from Water Reptiles in Veilwater Basin".

Enshrouded Mycelium: Every Kind

"In the Shroud, mine ground to gain Mycelium", per the wiki. The plain kind comes up wherever you dig inside the Shroud. The colored patches are separate materials:

Plain Mycelium goes into early armor, dyes and the Mycelium Overgrown Block, where 2 Mycelium and 2 Stone make 100 blocks. Active Mycelium is the one the Flask of the Fell needs, and Acidic Mycelium goes into the Alchemical Base.

Enshrouded Gems: Weapon Gems and Mined Gems

"Gems" means two things in Enshrouded 1.0.

Weapon gems sit in a weapon's gem slot and add an effect. Most drop from named enemies, and the wiki's gem list, last edited on 26 October 2026, gives the source of each of its 23 gems. The early ones:

You insert, upgrade and recycle gems at a Gem Forge, which runs on Archaic Essence. The wiki's Gem Forge page, from February 2026, gives three forges per biome, mostly in the Shroud, with the strongest inside a Night Sanctum. Three things changed with 1.0:

• Late in the game you can place a gem forge station in your own base (Keen's changelog).
• Removing a gem no longer costs Essence (the wiki's gem list).
• Mining the matching terrain gives more Archaic Essence at every tier (Keen's changelog).

Mined gems are crafting materials. Keen's 1.0 notes say mined gems are now part of the recipes for spell charges. Aquamarine is one: the wiki places it in the Veilwater Basin and lists it in Fire Bolt VII, and Keen made the aquamarine ore nodes larger in 1.0. Diamond is a level 45 material, the level where Cinder's Cradle begins, and goes into spells such as Chain Lightning II and Fire Bolt VIII. On 1 November 2026, the wiki's Diamond page did not yet say where to mine it.

Bridge Construction Report: Where the Chest Is

The Bridge Construction Report is a lore note with a single page, "Spectacular Progress Is Being Made", signed by Cade Hawthorn, the Carpenter you rescue from an Ancient Vault in the Springlands. The wiki places the note at the Small Flint Mine, one of the Springlands mines. The steps:

1. Read the note at the Small Flint Mine.
2. Talk to the Carpenter. He tells you: "Mine is a chest I set in the foundation of Braelyn Bridge." This starts the quest Bridge Construction Report, with the single objective Search The Braelyn Bridge Pillars.
3. Go to Braelyn Bridge in the Springlands and down to the foot of its middle pillar, which stands in the Shroud.
4. Dig through the rubble on the north side of the bottom of the middle pillar. The chest is behind it.

The wiki lists a gold chest and 75 XP as the reward. Its quest page dates from June 2025, before the Springlands rework, so if the rubble is not on the north side, check the other sides of the pillar.

More Resources on Your Own Server

On a dedicated server, you decide how much grinding these materials take. Keen's Server Gameplay Settings list these values for enshrouded_server.json; they only apply with "gameSettingsPreset": "Custom":

• resourceDropStackAmountFactor (0.25 to 2): "the amount of materials per loot stack in chests, defeated enemies etc."
• miningDamageFactor (0.5 to 2): more mining damage means "more yield of resources per hit", which counts for amber, salt and mycelium.
• shroudTimeFactor (0.5 to 2): how long characters can stay in the Shroud, where most of these materials are.
• factoryProductionSpeedFactor (0.25 to 2): the production times at workstations.

Without single values, Keen's "Relaxed" preset "provides players with more resources and loot". Keen's page still shows the 0.9.0.0 default file; our server settings guide covers every value for 1.0. To keep the world online while the host is away, our Enshrouded server hosting runs the 1.0 dedicated server for up to 16 players.
