How to Get Chains

Explore Sunken Crypts

Chains are located inside the chests of Sunken Crypts dungeons in the Swamp biome. Obtain a Swamp Key from The Elder to gain access to these particular dungeons!

The hallways of Sunken Crypts may be blocked by muddy scrap piles, which are destroyed by pickaxes. Make sure you bring one to clear the path!
