How do you get Goo in Enshrouded?

Destroying various objects can occasionally yield Goo, but the recommended and most efficient method of acquiring it involves a Craftsperson: the Alchemist.

The Alchemist route is a short chain of unlocks. You first need the Alchemist available at your base, then the Alchemist Mortar, and finally Bug Dust made from Critter Parts. Completing that chain unlocks the recipe to create Goo.

  1. Unlock the Alchemist from the Alchemist vault to access the recipe for crafting Goo.
  2. Acquire the Alchemist Mortar once the Alchemist is unlocked for your base.
  3. Use the Mortar to squash Critter Parts into Bug Dust.
  4. With Bug Dust made, the recipe to create Goo is unlocked.

Making Bug Dust at the Alchemist Mortar

Bug Dust is the intermediate step between Critter Parts and Goo. Craft 1x Critter Part at the Mortar to transform it into 1x Bug Dust.

Using the Alchemist Mortar to crush Critter Parts spawns bugs in the Shroud, so expect company while you work the Mortar.

  1. Craft 1x Critter Part at the Mortar.
  2. Collect the resulting 1x Bug Dust.
  3. Use the Bug Dust to unlock and craft Goo.
