The first weapons and tools you’ll craft in co-op survival RPG Enshrouded will be made of wood and stone, but pretty quickly you’ll want to make yourself some sturdier gear. Once you begin findingmetal scrapsyou’ll be able to craft better tools, weapons, and armor, and once you’ve met the Blacksmith you’ll even be able to start smelting those metal scraps into metal sheets to unlock even better equipment.

Enshrouded: Where to find metal scraps

Enshrouded metal scraps are typically found:

One easy spot to find metal scraps early on isinside the Cinder Vaultwhere you began the game. Remember that metal urn you climbed out of? That, and all the other urns in the vault can be smashed with a pickaxe and will drop 3 metal scraps when destroyed. They’re durable so you have to bang on them for a while, but it’s easy because there are no enemies around and you can fast-travel there at will.

Otherwise, the best source of metal scraps iskilling humanoid enemies called scavengers, which are found above the shroud, not in enshrouded areas. You can find scavengers in camps and settlements throughout the world, and sometimes within castles or temple ruins. Killing these enemies will almost always provide you with some metal scraps.

If you’ve killed all the scavengers in a camp or settlement,look around for metal scraps on tables or crafting benches, where it can simply be picked up. There are often small lootable piles of wood and metal that will show you a prompt when you get close enough to them. Occasionally you’ll also find an object that will have a ‘disassemble’ prompt.
