Ammonia Glands are a crafting material in Enshrouded which is necessary in creating Leather, an advanced material that is used for a lot of late game gear and armor. It is also one of the crucial materials needed to further strengthen the Flame at the Flame Altar. Knowing how and where to get a steady supply of Ammonia Glands would be an important step in preparing for the late stages of the game. Read ahead as we share how and where to obtain Ammonia Glands in Enshrouded.
Ammonia Gland Location
Ammonia Glands drop from a red mushroom creature that roam in the Umber Hollow which is at the very center of Embervale, east of the Pillars of Creation. The closest fast travel point is the Nomad Highlands Ancient Spire, then glide down south from the spire to reach the Umber Hollow. In order to get into the Hollow’s shroud safely, you will need to have upgraded the Flame in the Flame Altar to Level 4.
Obtaining Ammonia Gland
The red mushroom creature that drop the Ammonia Gland often spawn within the Hollow solo or by pairs. These creatures are hostile and will chase you down once they detect you.
Pay attention to the red sacs that surround the body of the creature as you can shoot these down to drop extra Ammonia Glands; there are usually three sacs around the stalk. Shooting the sac up front is easy, while shooting the other two that are behind will take a bit of dodging and slipping past the enemy. Shooting out a spell that has some AoE damage could easily destroy all sacs with one shot.
Killing the mushroom creature will allow you to loot Ammonia Glands from its corpse, along with some Shroud Sacks. But beware, they release a poisonous gas upon death that lingers for a few seconds. Wait until the gas dissipates before looting its corpse. Make sure to check the nearby areas as well for any Ammonia Glands that you may have shot down from the creature’s sacs.
