Enshrouded 1.0: All Shroud Root and Elixir Well Locations

In Enshrouded, Shroud Roots award skill points, and many are scattered throughout Embervale. Across its eight regions, the map identifies 21 Elixir Wells and 56 Shroud Roots. All Elixir Wells lie within the Shroud, with a Shroud Root in each one’s deepest chamber.

Quick answer: Use a Felling Axe to chop a Shroud Root and gain skill points. The tables below organize all 56 roots and 21 wells by region.

How Shroud Roots and Elixir Wells work in Enshrouded

These rules decide how many points one character can collect.

• A Shroud Root is destroyed with a Felling Axe and grants skill points.
• Every Flameborn nearby gets the points when the root falls, so co-op partners standing close also earn them.
• A root counts once per character. It respawns later, but you get no more points from it.
• Every Elixir Well lies within the Shroud, with a Shroud Root at its lowest point.
• Ancient Spires reveal Elixir Wells and Flame Sanctums on your map.
• Ancient Obelisks point to concealed Shroud Roots and Flame Shrines.

The game explains the system in its own words:

“The Shroud springs forth from Elixir Wells throughout Embervale. Fell the Shroud Root at their depths to receive skillpoints for all nearby Flameborn. Flameborn who have harvested a Shroud Root once cannot gain additional skill points from the same root after it respawns. Elixir Wells are always enshrouded and challenging. Prepare yourself accordingly.”

The two kinds of landmarks that put these spots on your map have their own descriptions:

• “Ancient Obelisks contain lore about the world. After reading them, you will gain insight to the locations of hidden Flame Shrines and Shroud Roots.”
• “Scale Ancient Spires and speak to the Flame atop to reveal important landmarks on your map. Ancient Spires unveil the location of Elixir Wells and Flame Sanctums.”
