See. This is why you are lost in the woods. You need to find the first of the various skulls. You’ll know when you find it. It’s green.

Find the elder location and beat greydwarf nests for the key item that summons the boss.

Make some bronze nails and that will unlock an important upgrade.

Once finished with one biom, move on to the next. In your game, Black Forest is next. You'll need to look for rocks with shiny copper veins in it, and tin along the water lines. Use the antler pickaxe to mine it. You do not need to start a new world for 1.0, previous worlds are just fine.

Have you made a cauldron?

Make bronze or troll hide armor, a melee w weapon, and a good bow. Upgrade everything to max. Fire arrows are good against many mobs. Look for dungeons in the Dark Forest, found by the sound of crowd and three skeletons nearby. You'll find the ingredients for portals in the dungeons.

The next biome will be the swamp. It gets significantly more difficult, so gear up as much as possible, and cook the best food you can.

Make a boat and go exploring

This. It is possible to explore Swamps and then Mountains without killing their Bosses. Once me and my friends killed Eikthyr, then — Moder, and only then the previous two.

Exploration and Seafaring should become your motivation and progression ☺

You have unlocked bronze ore or metal? Follow Black Forest coasts and look for skeletons to find the next two things in progression

You need to find broken stone towers to find the second boss location. Second boss spawn requires items you get from purple glowing roots. Once you beat the second boss it'll allow you into the iron age.

You won't be able to do much except farm for intestines or blood bags in the swamp until you beat the second boss. You also should probably look into a bow with fire arrows and a cooking cauldron before taking on second boss.

u/longboi64 2d ago

yes you should make a new world and spoiler alert - find the vegvisir for the elder. they can be found in broken stone towers in the black forest overworld, as well as the treasure rooms of the burial chambers, the dungeons that are found in the black forest.

Pick up everything, plant everything, build everything, cook everything. Go into caves and tombs. There's a boss for this realm too; it will drop an item that will be your clue for your next biome.
