UnderMine 2’s fourth major update is here! Welcome peasants to 0.7.0 Duskfall!
Duskfall is an enormous update. Possibly the biggest in the history of UnderMine! 0.7.0 Duskfall adds the titular zone: Duskfall, a new fearsome boss Bul & Gogi, a new landmark Thimble Thicket, a new challenge mode Grim Crucible, and many, many more features and changes. Without further ado, let’s get into it!
Duskfall and thimble thicket
Duskfall is a new starter area that occupies the first floor of the Undermine, alongside the Goldmine. In fact, Duskfall is now THE starter area for new players just beginning the game. The goblins of the area have barricaded the entrance to the Goldmine. Before you and Camilla can begin rebuilding her Hub you must confront the goblins and find a way into the Goldmine. Unfortunately, Gogi, the goblin chieftain and his mount Bul stand in your way. More on them later.
Within Duskfall resides the Thimble Thicket, a market run by strange creatures known as Wizardlings. These creatures are obsessed with enlargement and delargement. Their wares reflect that obsession. New items, along with some older ones, are now available for purchase with iron from the Thimble Thicket. You’ll find many things that scale you in multiple kinds of ways.
Duskfall is also full of new enemies. Goblin Tinkerers, Armorsmiths, and Clearcutters roam the grounds. Strange chefs look to ignite or cleave you with their cooking tools. Some basic critters also infest the woods such as snakes. Discover optimal strategies for how to dispatch these enemies, or charm them to your team and discover how they can serve you!
nEW iTEMS (SOME OF THEM) & REWORKS

Portals?
Rare secret encounters each contain a portal to one of the Undermine’s landmarks such as the Abandoned Foundry, Royal Testing Apparatus, the Tomevault, and Thimble Thicket. There may even be some ways to create these portals yourself.
Changes to Fuse and Attunement
Fuse is now free. It still requires two relics, but since your sacrificing two relics for one, we figured you’re already paying a cost. No need for a second. Attunement is also more lenient. You can now remove a single level from an existing blessing, rather than sacrificing the whole thing in order to ascend another.
And much more…
As always there are many more additions and changes in this update along with balance changes and bug fixes. Make sure to read the full notes when Duskfall releases on May 1st.
The NEXT UPDATE
Our next update will be a bit smaller and release sooner than normal. It will feature a new playable character and a few other exciting things.
