Enshrouded- All base locations with 10+ Comfort built-in!

[@GameMnke]

Keep in mind too that when you expand your base in a place like Brittlebush/East Lapis the comfort may also go up as new comfort items fall under the base area. I'll update this post with additional locations from the comments. Bounty Barn should provide about a 13 base comfort. It is SW of Brittlebush. You can see the location as a fast travel point in the middle of the screen at 21:27. It's a great location and has lots of respawning wheat, and a cat den of twigs nearby. Beware that there are a couple big cats and some spiders around. Or just, you know... take Calm Spirit and never worry about beasts again! Thanks to @SethanderWald for pointing out that I didn't include this great fast travel spot that also has a 10+ comfort! North of Deepcut (scav camp in SW Kindlewastes) there is an inn that provides 30 base comfort. Nice find! @AJsWargaming Scatterbone (scav camp in SE Kindle next to Sun Temple) there is one building with 15 comfort and a couple others with 10-12. @KTrain-cl1vs Note about Brittlebush and Lapislazuli ore: It's also just west outside of town past the respawn orb. So you can get that and sulfur right rear to each other. The caravan camp has both, but in my map there's some of each a bit closer to town.

I loved the honorable mention sunsimmer....when I found it. Sooo unique! All the gardens and levels and rooms and breakables.

[@GameMnke]

Yeah. It's a really novel find just hanging out in the desert. I could definitely see it for at least a fast-travel spot to be able to get a lot of saffron and graple plant without ever needing to plant it.

TY for this video - it's one of the best, and most informative. You explained things very clearly - and I very much appreciate it

[@GameMnke]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@mvpmikey]

North of Deepcut, between "Sun Temple (west side)" and "The Grim", there is a lone 2 floor home with Max level Comfort. *Only missing Altar, Trophy, and Fireplace.* Nobody seem to know that location since there isn't anything there. Just a plain MAX comfort home in the middle of nowhere.

[@GameMnke]

Hey there! @AJsWargaming pointed it out as well. I have it in the pinned comment as "North of Deepcut there is an inn that provides 30 base comfort". It's probably harder to pick out once people are gliding around easily to big landmarks! That's probably how I missed it in my sweep. Nice find!

[@Umgijus]

I appreciate this video cause I'm having a really hard time finding a place to build but never really considered adopting a house or area and building it up/enhancing it. Kept thinking I had to build from scratch to be satisfied

[@GameMnke]

Glad you like it! It's a great feature in the game.

[@mattbrown2411]

This video deserves many more views and much more popularity. Awesome video man thank you so much!

[@GameMnke]

Thank you! I really do appreciate the support! I think all the replies and likes help encourage youtube to share it more broadly.

[@AJsWargaming]

Just north of Deepcut, there's a lone inn with comfort of 30. Lots of good resources nearby and the temple.

[@GameMnke]

Excellent! Thanks for pointing this out!

[@tammywilliams2035]

Thanks so much for the list and visiting each location. I made the Blue Goblet Inn my base, but also kept the large farm too for farming :). I do wish you had slept and done the full stream in daylight to see the locations though :).

[@GameMnke]

I agree. I should have slept it back to daylight for a couple of those locations- especially since I was recording a lot of it in segments. Thank you for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@georginenov6779]

Really nice video! I made a base in the Blue Goblet tavern and was wondering if there are other similar locations. Thanks for pointing them out!

Glad I could be of assistance and thanks for the comment!

Yay for Brittlebrush and Emily's tavern! I want to rebuild it for her.

It's a great location. I like adding a bunch of buildings into the "sphere" by upping the altar.

[@Kymss-j9z]

Nice concept ty

[@syyndev2161]

much appreciated

[@richardsidwell9953]

Harvest homestead, first spot showed is A very nice early base location. That it has a lot of fertilized fields and several buildings to occupy with your NPC's keeps it usefull throughout play. Only need to take out rats and wolves to occupy. I like to build the alter right by the bridge to the field to maximize field space usable. the third upgrade will get all the building spaces and partially into the chruch by the fourth upgrade. Salt and Flint are close by,

[@SneetchDreams]

Where by the bridge? In the field side or the town side?

[@richardsidwell9953]

@@SneetchDreams On the field side as close as can to the muddy river on the east side of bridge.

[@SethanderWald]

Surprised Bounty Barn isn't on here. It and Blue Goblet are my personal favorite locations

[@GameMnke]

You know... what's really crazy is that Bounty Barn is one of my fast travel spots, and also one of my faves (particularly for easy wheat and twigs). It's also a great location for getting around. I'll add it to the post of additional locations. Gosh, I'm a little embarrassed. Ha ha! Thanks for pointing it out!

[@naMelaK]

Blue Goblet review, and no mention about the secret passage in the basement behind the bookcase, to the small spider cave with a chest and some light giving ore ?

[@GameMnke]

Thanks for the question. Should I do a review of the Blue Goblet specifically, or of any other single location, I would aim to include all things hidden. Considering the video length had I done that for every location in one video about comfort (not secrets) it would have been prohibitive. Also, to claim the BG you have to clear the rats from in front of the secret door. Have fun!

[@naMelaK]

Oh after about 120 hours, personally I'm done for now. Waiting for more content to drop, don't want it to get stale ;) I just made that place my home the moment I found it. So when you got to it, I expected a run down to the spidercave, or at least a hint at that unique feature. Was more a tongue in cheek remark ;)@@GameMnke

[@illwatchur30secads40]

The sealing got 2 access as well, 1 from the outside and the other from 1 of the rooms. So nice details, we need more building like these in future updates...

[@puurza]

Oceans heart is actually perfect base location, its almost 30 comfort and there is walls around it. u can farm middle of it and there is plenty of room to put all your stuff there.

[@GameMnke]

For sure. Same access to iron (etc) as East Lapis, plus you can dip into East Lapis for the chests/etc.

[@doomslayerforever2858]

id say def make a base in lapis since the mountains to the north are close by and will be open up at some point

[@GameMnke]

I haven't checked recently, but from earlier exploration I did, the mountain ranges to the north of the current content put a movement debuff on you from the cold/snow. There will probably be a few options, like the valley between Glennwood and Pikemead's (where the ancient bridge is), to go in at a lower elevation and find a means (potions/etc) to handle the terrain. Speaking of that bridge, it's the lefthand side keep that I managed to jump/dig/etc to get up to. It's empty and stradles the "end of area" line, but the terrain next to that keep is where you can find an example of the snow debuff. I'm assuming it's all along that northern ridge. Have fun!

[@doomslayerforever2858]

@GameMnke yeah I did manage to hit the mount top .

[@teammelkerphilippines3620]

Currently just started playing this, and your first location is where I built, extended to tier 2

[@teammelkerphilippines3620]

Just started plying this, your first location I am at tier 2 and my things do actually respawn including the gold chest

[@GameMnke]

Interesting. They did just patch out. I rechecked a chest and the clay within my base area and nothing has respawned for me. If you looted the chest before expanding, it may be possible that it refreshed prior to upgrading your altar? (Referring to the first option that increases base size)

[@williamskiba6786]

Question: in several of the buildings I get "not enough free space" to build the altar - and there is no place inside the building with enough free space. What am I doing wrong?

[@GameMnke]

A lot of times there are broken/non-comfort-yielding furniture you may need to clear like I mentioned with the broken table for that spot right next to the stairs in harvest homestead. The axe is the best for clearing when you just want to take out everything in a swing or two. Broken chairs/beds/etc do not count toward comfort and so can be removed without concern. If you are removing something on/next to an unbroken comfort item, you may want to either use the tree felling axe- it's swing is vertical, keep that in mind- or a sword as it does far less damage to objects compared to an axe. You could even try your fist or a torch, but I've found that just using a sword usually removes broken/bad objects without destroying the good/comfort objects (like a bed with a skeleton in it). Some of the smaller early ones (Westcott, I think) have some rubble that you can pickaxe out of the way. A lot of objects don't yield comfort (shelves, fake stoves, etc), or in the case of beds/chairs usually there are more than one in range. Also you can put an altar in a sub-optimal location overlapping the base, then dismantle/edit the base to create the space you want and then- with a second altar in your inventory- extinguish the first altar and put a new one down where you want to. That would be more for aesthetics- you shouldn't have to do more than a couple axe-swings to make room for an altar and you shouldn't have to put the altar in the exact spot that is showing you top comfort. The comfort objects just have to be in range of the altar to give you the benefit. My pinned post explains that as you expand your base you accumulate more comfort from objects within nearby buildings. Hope that all makes sense. If axing/de-rubbling doesn't make room, let me know the building and I'll have a closer look. Have fun!

[@williamskiba6786]

@@GameMnke Thanks much for your response - that really helps alot. For some of the items in houses it seems there's a "dismantle" option that seems to get rid of them. But, for example with the house near Mark of Sameth, if I climb out on the roof (which needs repair), I can "dismantle" items that apparently are under the roof ... so I can't see what I'm dismantling. A follow up question: If I mungle up some things in an existing house, I can just extinguish my altar and the house will eventually return to its default state, right? Another question: For the house near Sameth, there are some rusty/broken chandeliers high up in the ceiling that can't be dismantled (I made scaffolds to get right next to them). Do you know if there's any way to remove them?

[@GameMnke]

@@williamskiba6786 Yes. If you extinguish the altar and leave, that area should reset back to default after 30 minutes. You could also log out of the world and back in to force things to reset immediately. For the Blue Goblet (near Sameth), the things you see "dismatle" for are up in the attic. There's a ladder on a platform in the NE corner. (also a mundane chest up there) To get rid of the broken chandeliers it takes about 200 damage (estimating off the ones I took out). For melee it seems you have to contact where the hook holds the chains. For a wand you can hit almost anywhere between the base and the hook- any higher and it just passes through. You should see damage registered. If you put a ceiling connected to the top of the railing it should put you exactly high enough to walk out and chop chop chop with your 1H axe until each one is gone. Have fun!

[@BrandonPepper-iz6rh]

Completely restored the castle, and added a village lol I just zoned out brittle and cleaned out all the scrap stuff and sealed off the lower part of the temple lol I only have access to two more alters which I placed at surat but it needs one more 2 be able to b zoned out 😢

[@AnIrishExport]

So I recently just started playing Enshrouded, loving it so far, forgive me for such an ignorant question, but what is the purpose of bui;dfing your own luxurious builiding? What does it do for you in the game...

[@GameMnke]

It's a good qusetion. Functionally it doesn't do much (if anything) in game beyond the player having control over location. Some people enjoy building- some enjoy it a lot. In a game like Valheim you have to build up comfort yourself, but in Enshrouded you have this option of occupying existing buildings for comfort and modifying them to suit. So if you don't have an interest in building everythng from scratch- you're not missing anything. Have fun!

[@saltycynic5770]

blue goblet still sounds like the best option on the map to me. :)

[@tangomcphearson74]

Blue Goblet Inn is my favorite base location - and you can level out the ground - making it easy to farm there as well. I just think the Inn is the most beautiful building - and it doesn't need a ton of repairs.

[@ohplease587]

How do you get to the third floor at the Inn NE of Thornwood? I am looking everywhere and there are no stairs. I see a third floor with dormers. Thank you for the great Vid. Subscribed.

[@GameMnke]

There's a ledge just to the west that should be high enough to run-jump and glide from- lots of holes in the roof. If you already occupy the building you could either scaffold up to it or from inside place/delete a ceiling to make a hole. However... the third floor is empty (as a lot of them are, unfortunately).

[@kellblaze5790]

Found Blue Goblet by accident while running back to get my stuff after dieing in the cave north of the coppermine. Wantet to have a better base than the first one and after finding this house and the secret room down below i found my place. Wantet to do a little terraforming projekt to place a big secret garden underground behind it but i sought information first. I found such a great place by accident. Maybe there is another good location for that? Thanks to you i now new where my second mainbase will be at. StarWars fellings includet. Thank you very much for that. But when i can build everything my last base will natureally be completly selfmade. But thats something for later. Good and informative Video.

[@GameMnke]

Thanks so much for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Sunsimmer is such a nice spot. Hopefully when they add enemy patrols it remains far enough out of the way (below ground) that it is still peaceful and doesn't draw attention.

[@ehta2413]

Wistfull fields is my favorite, it only has like level 5 comfort due to some bath tubes, but there's flint and copper right next to it and it has heaps of farm soil for plants. So you get three resources and level 7 golden chest in a single location, just need to build comfort up, but that's easier than resources. Great starting base, also accessible with first glider and a hook, nothing else needed

I think I checked that one out. It does look great. There's another cool half-built/destroyed tower somewhere in the Northwest area. Again no comfort to speak of, but a chest on top and kind of like a wizard tower or unfinished ancient spire.

East Lapis would never work for me as a solo player as its too much work, also top right has the best cave in the game for farming ore

[@GameMnke]

I don't know that I would use it for more than a fast-travel outpost because I'd have too much stuff collected by then to do any major move. That said, when I first went into East Lapis with my bow/melee hybrid I didn't have much trouble- but that's mainly beacuse I saw fel bugs and scavangers starting to fight and so I sat back and picked off whoever won. Once up on buildings it was even easier to just pick things off and melee down any flying beetles that showed up. I have a base in there now (the 35 comfort spot) and it's gotten easier to navigate, knowing where the bug spawners are. Double exploding beetles is riskier when I'm doing agressive melee. I swapped to messing around with caster and since I now know where all the beetles spawn, it's easier for me to just blast the spawner from range or be careful going down into a basement. For ore cave are you referring to the one north of the city? If so, I'll have to check it out. Thanks!

[@justinbrown8759]

@@GameMnke The cave was for others passing by seeing the comment

[@GameMnke]

@@justinbrown8759 The cave passage south of East Lapis is indeed great for getting iron. There is also a cave to the north of Lapis that has tons of iron and is NOT in the shroud. There is a silver chest at the end and one set of beetles (including an exploder) that pops out of the ground in that area- otherwise it is just iron for days.

Great idea for a video, nice to watch something a bit different This is probably pointless to mention, but im a pedant so, here goes In the early stuff you mentioned Flint and Salt a lot, i just wanted to point out there are 2 big flint mining spots and 1 salt spot within bow-shot of where you are told to build base 1 And i do mean bow-shot if you build where they tell you, you can literally hit both flint mines with an arrow, the salt you need to look down over the cliff, theres a ruined tower, has level 3-5 loot in (legendary possible) too, the salt is on the steps to this tower, it might not be "masses" but considering you just glide down to it and either reload game or fast travel from roof of tower to leave, it is very easy Theres also tons of Shroud Liquid around it If you do all 3, loot the chest, grab the salt and the shroud liquid each time, well its quite efficient I shouldnt need to point out the flint, but one spot is on the same cliff you came out of from tutorial, a little further to your right as you leave the cave The other flint spot is buried under the bigger of the hills overlooking the bridge Wow, thats already a lot of writing Theres a great little house i spent a night in between Deepcut and Scatterbone, i honestly dont recall the comfort level but i think mid-30s minimum It was impressive to me at the time because i was trying to get the glider and was still low level, and got lost a lot But while its got great comfort, apart from it being between 4 or 5 great loot chests, its a pretty lousy location for resources, but as well as the loot chests found somewhat nearby, theres also a whole bunch of Vases and Jars that can be broken for some great high level bits n bobs, like Padding, Fabric, Iron and Bronze ingots etc Not sure either of my contributions are game-shattering, but there they are anyway, maybe someone will enjoy to know these things

[@GameMnke]

Hey there! There are at least a dozen videos about salt and a chest being just over the cliff. Right? Haha... ;) There's also flint ~50m N-NW from the starting base (only a little circle showing, but more below). Maybe that's one you mentioned. This was aimed at presenting pre-existing locations with 10+ built-in comfort. Nearby resources helps distinguish areas from each other or expose inobvious ones (like the salt at Peaceful Acres). I'm glad I could provide content that is different from typical. I ilke trying to find things that aren't getting enough coverage. Thanks for the comments and mentioning N of Deepcut (someone else brought it up as well). It should have made the.... cut... ;) Have fun!

@@GameMnke I did of course realise that the Salt, Chest and Flint have been mentioned elsewhere, but we cant assume everyone watching this video would even bother to watch the others, given the difference in the aim of this video I pointed it out because as even you said 10 Comfort is easily attainable, and has the same things on your doorstep as many that are further away For the "why move to get the same stuff" mentality of some folks Yes the Deepcut one is really only good if you just REALLY want to live there tbh, and like having nearby chests to farm Anyway just tried to sort of repay for the the interesting video by contributing something 👍
