The Cave

guide

The Ice Cave runs under the north-east of Extinction and holds the Artifact of the Void, the tribute the Ice Titan Terminal requires.

It is the longest and hardest of Extinction's three caves — the path to the artifact and to the Ice Titan spawn zone is the same path, and it is a long one.

Hazards

  • Creatures inside reach level 300 and none of them are tameable. This is a fight you win with what you brought in.
  • Flyers cannot enter and will dismount you instantly. A Managarmr is the only exception.
  • Polar Purlovia burrow and ambush; the hit stuns and dismounts.
  • Cold. It needs insulation on top of everything else.

Recommended Equipment

  • A heavy ground mount — a Rex or better.
  • Fur Armor, or the food buffs that replace it.

What You'll Be Dealing With

assembled from what lives in this cave 6
UnderwaterHeavy carnivoresGrabs and pinsAmbushCold
  • Sarco — Rolls a survivor in water and is fast on land as well.
  • Direwolf — Hunts in packs and gets a damage bonus for pack size, so the fifth wolf hurts more than the first.
    Fight in a corridor where only one can reach you.
  • Polar Bear — High health and damage, and untameable.
  • Yeti — A Megapithecus variant: high damage, throws you, and untameable.
  • Kaprosuchus — Grabs a survivor off a mount and carries them away.
  • Polar Purlovia — Buries and ambushes with a torpor hit, as Purlovia.
Not a threat: Coelacanth, Hesperornis, Sabertooth Salmon
