Shroud Survival Tips
One of the easiest ways to increase your chances of surviving The Shroud is maximizing your timer. You’re given 5 minutes by default, but this time can be increased by using these methods:
Upgrade the Flame Altar
Flame Altars act like respawn points, and standing next to onerestarts your Enshrouded timer. With the right upgrades, you may increase the additional time that a Flame Altar gives you.
Improve Your Skills
You can increase your timer by a total of 7 minutes if you havethe right skills. Two skills in the game have this property:
Use the Shroud Survival Flask
This potion willincrease your maximum time inside The Shroud by 2 minutes, and its effect lasts for 45 minutes. You can obtain this consumable by crafting it at an Alchemist. Keep in mind that using this item while you’re in The Shroud won’t give you extra time. It simply increases your maximum time. For example, if you have two minutes left out of five, after drinking this potion, you’ll have two minutes out of seven. Ideally, this consumable should be used before entering. However, if the timer is reset while the potion is in effect, it will reset to the increased limit instead of the original limit.
Just like the Flame Altar, this willreset your timer.
Interact with Hourglass Capsules
These items are scattered all around The Shroud. Upon interacting with them, you’ll gaina little extra time.
