Enshrouded Luminous Growth: Best Locations

Perhaps the most convenient way to get some Luminous Growth in Enshrouded and unlock its crafting recipes is during the Hunter's Hand Spindle quest. As its name implies, you must summon the Hunter NPC before taking on this quest. Once accepted, travel south of the Ancient Spire – Revelwood Fast Travel marker. You'll likely notice a pair of glowing pillars at the cave entrance leading to the quest. So, equip your Pickaxe, use the key bound to the use item command, and use it on those bright structures to get Luminous Growth. Note: It might be easier to see Luminous Growth nodes than before, thanks to Update #1 v0.7.0.1. Alternatively, you can get Luminous Growth near the southeasternmost part of the map in the Kindlewastes. Here, you can find various glowing surfaces for your Pickaxe, allowing you to farm Luminous Growth. But be careful, for Kindlewastes is not ideal for beginners. Ensure you have the best equipment and skills possible before venturing into this region. Otherwise, else death will come knocking on your door sooner than later.
