The majestic world of Embervale has just gotten even more expansive. With the latest update, “Wake of the Water,” players can now explore the stunning Veilwater Basin, filled with sandy shores, ancient ruins, lush bamboo forests, and inviting lakes perfect for fishing.
Located as a late-game area, the Veilwater Basin requires you to progress without needing to max out your Flame Level. This new region holds essential resources that will help you craft unique recipes, including those that give you the ability to breathe underwater—a crucial skill for navigating everything Enshrouded has to offer.
Where to Find Veilwater Basin in Enshrouded
The Veilwater Basin is nestled at the northern edge of Embervale, bordered by the Albaneve Summits and Blackmire. To reach it, I recommend traveling west from the fast travel tower at Albaneve Summits. Scale the mountain, and you’ll glide down into the basin effortlessly. Another ideal launch point is the Balefire Tower “1000 Miles,” where you can enjoy a panoramic view and easily soar down to the lush basin.

If the heights of the Albaneve Summits are uncharted territory for you, don’t worry—there are other routes. Head east from the Blackmire Ancient Spire or climb the mountains north of the Nomad Highlands fast travel point. While the Albaneve route is the easiest, patience and a high-level glider will allow you to reach this vibrant biome from other areas.
At the center of this region lies the Ancient Spire, prominently positioned in Lake Heartblood. It’s easily identifiable as the tallest structure nearby. To unlock fast travel points there, you’ll need to dive underwater and explore its passages, making a supply of oxygen essential. Crafting Sushi using Algae, Cooked Rice, and Silverback fish with the help of the Farmer can give you that additional push you need.

The Veilwater Basin is packed with intriguing locations like the Capybara Oasis, where you can start a quest to tame your very own capybara. Don’t overlook Riverreach, a small abandoned town filled with treasures and Scavengers waiting to make things interesting. During your exploration, gather new resources such as Bananas, Ginger, and Crab Meat. You’ll also find building materials like Bamboo, Shell Limestone, Palm Trees, and Tropical Wood to help you craft your perfect tropical home.
How do I get to Veilwater Basin from the Blackmire fast travel point?
You can reach the Veilwater Basin by heading east from the Blackmire Ancient Spire or climbing the mountains north of the Nomad Highlands fast travel point. While these routes are viable, they are less straightforward than starting from Albaneve Summits.

Is the Veilwater Basin suitable for late-game players?
Yes, the Veilwater Basin is classified as a late-game area, but you can access it without having to upgrade your Flame Level to its maximum, making it an exciting spot for players at various progress levels.
What is the fastest way to unlock the Ancient Spire’s fast travel point?
The quickest method is to dive underwater to explore the Ancient Spire’s passages. To mitigate oxygen supply issues, consider crafting sustenance like Sushi before your dive.
