Red Room

From HBM's Nuclear Tech Wiki
A strange stone block, what secrets could it be hiding?

The Red Room is a special room that doesn't spawn in the world regularly. It can be accessed by using a red key (craftable) or a cracked key (in dungeon chests or drops from mobs) on a strange stone, upon which the room spawns. A strange stone is a block that looks just like regular stone, except with a red keyhole impressed into its sides. AoE tool enchantments will not break strange stone blocks, which should help considerably while searching for these rare loot rooms.

Black Room

A Black Room acts as an extension to the Red Room. Red Rooms have a high chance of spawning a faint keyhole outline, similar to strange stone, on one of the walls.

Black Rooms lack all the random decoration and have unique loot, mostly associated with legendary weapon crafting and the clay tablets.

Trivia

  • Most of the items needed for progression that can be found in the Red Room can be obtained in other ways.
