The Flame is what separates humans from the Ancients, and what gives the Flameborn their abilities. To survive the Shroud and build the best base possible, you must tend the Flame. I’ll tell you how to upgrade and strengthen the Flame Altar in Enshrouded.
How to Upgrade the Altar in Enshrouded
The Altar portion of the Flame is the easiest part to enhance, but it requires the Flame to be Strengthened at the same rate. You can’t have one without the other.
Upgrading the Altar expands the area the Flame protects. It pushes back the Shroud, and you can expand your base further with every upgrade. Each level takes the previous measurements and multiplies them by two. The 40x40x40 base size becomes 80x80x80, and so on.

To upgrade the Altar, you need Shroud Cores. Initially, you only need a single core to upgrade the Altar to Level 2. After that, the requirements will start to jump.
All Enshrouded Altar Upgrade Requirements
- Level 2: Shroud Core x1
- Level 3: Shroud Core x5
- Requires Flame Level 2
- Level 4: Shroud Core x10
- Requires Flame Level 3
After Flame Altar Level 3, the option to see what further upgrade requirements is greyed out. This may be the max level we get at the start of EA. But I’ll update this guide if there’s a patch.
How to Strengthen the Flame
The Flame improves your Altar activation capacity, increasing when you Strengthen it. Each level increases how long you can stay in the Shroud by a minute. It also provides bonuses for your character’s stats. Unlike the Altar, the Flame requires multiple items to advance to the next level. Some of these resources are easier to get than others, like boss trophies and Sparks.
