The secret badge in Lumber Tycoon 2 is one of the tougher unlocks in The Hunt: Roblox 20, but a mid-event update trimmed most of its busywork. The cave that used to require a puzzle to enter is now open by default, so the run comes down to talking to a skeleton, cycling a special globe, and carrying a few items to the right places.
Quick answer: Enter the open cave, get the skeleton’s permission, click the correct globe 18 times until it turns orange, drop it in lava, then deliver three bunker items to earn the purple axe and the badge.
What the nerf changed for the Lumber Tycoon 2 secret badge
A post-launch update made the quest much simpler in two ways. The developer placed a wooden truss inside the pit at the secret cave entrance, letting you climb directly down rather than complete the former entry puzzle. You no longer need to craft planks or use dynamite to open the cave.
If you followed an older walkthrough, skip the dynamite entirely. You no longer need to buy explosives from the tool shack to blow open a barrier, and you do not need to build a plank to reach anything.

An older clue tied to the quest also lives on the roof of Wood R Us. A hidden ladder inside the store climbs through the ceiling to a rooftop note, but it is a leftover breadcrumb from the pre-nerf hunt rather than a required step now.

Two purchases make the run far smoother, and both are worth grabbing at Wood R Us before you head underground.
- A Work Light from Wood R Us, so you can see inside the dark cave.
- A car or truck, so you can haul all three relics in a single trip instead of walking them one by one.
- An axe. Buy one from the store cashier, or use an upgraded axe you already own.
Get permission from the skeleton
Run the wood quest and find the orange globe



The bag stage is the slowest part of the run, so expect to open several before the correct color-cycling globe appears.
Sacrifice the globe and collect the three relics
Open the bunker and deliver the three items

| Item from the box | Where it goes |
|---|---|
| Glass item | NPC wearing the white Dominus |
| Purple bag item | NPC without a Dominus |
| Can item | The golden Dominus plate |
Confirm the badge and claim the purple axe
When all three items are in the correct places, a bright flash fills the screen and the purple axe appears in your hands. These signs mean the secret badge has been awarded, so either one confirms you’re finished.
The quest is solo-locked per run. If you are playing with friends, only one person earns the badge each attempt, so everyone else has to repeat the full chain to get their own copy.
