- Hey guys,
I received a comment request about making map guides for all of the different maps and thought that was a GREAT idea! I'm not sure if this is exactly what was requested, but I did my best to share stuff that I wish I could have found in a video form while I was learning the game. I'm basically just covering where to find bosses, sub-bosses, good loot, and other small tips that would help anyone to make money and extract from this specific dungeon. If anyone has ideas about ways to make this better as I move onto the Ice Caves and Howling Crypts, then please let me know! All in all, this is just an informational guide to help people know the Goblin Caves map a little bit better. If you enjoyed the video please give me a comment, a like, or consider subscribing to the channel. Anything helps and I appreciated each of you who do any of those things.

phenomenal info! helps me so much with loot and my mining for quests as a noob thanks so much!
Happy to help :)
@ should continue to update content like this when things change. I know tons of folks are loving this stuff to help them on their journey
@ I had thought about doing that in the past, but I honestly haven’t played the game in a while… I played it a lot for about a year and a half and think I burned myself out a little bit. Maybe I’ll come back sometime and redo all of my videos :)
@ no need if you burned yourself out. Anyone can do that to themselves. Take care of yourself first. And good luck with your endeavors.
I have 3 hours in game thank you so much for posting. Time stamps would be great for quick reference. Gonna rewatch these all
I’m glad it’s helping!
This is one of the most helpful guides I have seen for DaD.
I’m glad it helped!
i would actually like to say that the iron ore is pretty nice to go after when your still new at the game and learning about crafting. get a bunch of iron, go to weaponsmith, craft the ingots, and then craft the lockpicks. i usually sell save up like 10-15 stacks then sell on market for around 300+- each stack. really good money starting out cause they sell insanely fast.
Great job thanks!
that exactly the vid i was looking for!
Glad you found it! :)
In the top middle rom with an altar there's also a Lion's chest and the top left mining room is actually not in the corner, but in the room with the stairs exit.
Great info
The room your saying is locked by the mystical gem in the bottom left of goblin caves can be accessed by dropping down a hole that has a ladder
Unless I’m mistaken and your talking about a different loot room
@jordaneva3912 I haven’t played the game in a little bit. But yes, you’re right. Down there is a locked door, which needs the mystical gem to be opened. Unless that’s been changed in the last couple months (there’s also a possibility that it’s only that way in high roller and not normals) :)
May i suggest an idea? Make a new video about spawns and what is the optimal path to get the most loot/chest. I mean if you are here and there go here, after that here and there, kill this and you can get the most loot in a short time with this path.
Would love to see that.
I can work on those too!
I’ll probably finish doing map guides and try to do a video per spawn or something.
With goblin caves, in full honesty, the best pathing is to just bum rush cave troll, and then you can decide if you want to leave or fight cyclops from there. Even if you spawn on the other side of the map 😅😬
But if you’re looking for jewelry specifically, centipedes are great.
Would love to see a map secrets video. Apparently crypt pyramid has a secret room and the only video I could find on it wasn't clear about where in the module it was.
Also for example there is a door in one of the modules here that has its lever hidden as a statue arm
Okay, I can do one of those sometime then! :)
There is a lever in the center of one of the walls around pyramid that opens a trapdoor.
in the top left there ether could be lion head times two or one lion head and one gold
nice video,if it cound include the other altars would be perfect! thanks for sharing~
im new to the game appreciate the info!!
Waiting on doing ruins was a good idea now that its 3 tiers again. Need these videos so bad though lmao
Thank you!!!!
Make boss fights non third partiable, the doors should lock so players can’t cheese in groups by keeping 2 in and 1 out, that would solve the third party issues as well.
I both agree and disagree… Fighting over the best loot in the game should be a thing, and not just whoever got the closest spawn should get it.
@@Deltsong I think there should be just a PvE mode.
And given quests.
I was thinking there's no game out there like that.
Up to 4 party system . Random quests, maps. Maybe. And you have x-amount of time to get out.
Dark maps.
DnD crowd would love that.
Can still die and lose things. But have that goblin that goes in and gets stuff out still.
Because really I don't want to fight other ppl.
@@ultimaone3189 a lot of people have been saying that they want this! I think if the game develops to have more interesting fights (other than just the bosses) I’d have fun with that too :)
I'm here I'm here! I am struggling hard in crypts/hell or whatever reason this last weekend (have only had time to play on weekends sadly) except today. I'm on my way home from work early and was thinking of farming gold. Good timing on this video XD (super rare as well but Iron can spawn in the elevator room. Everytime I want to go get cobalt I swear I find one iron node in the middle)
Welcome here! Hello!
Oh okay, that’s good to know about the iron I guess. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that in that room! Haha
@Deltsong haha, I had to comment as soon as possible, video came out right when I got off work. I can't remember but did you cover the Rez shrines? Those would be nice too for the future videos.
I put rez shrines and health shrines right at the end on the same screen 🙂
Can't wait for the Ruins video!!
I’m hoping to have the Ice Caves one either next Monday/Tuesday and then Crypts will come out at the end of the week. I’m studying up for that one haha
Super helpful, thank you.
Glad it helped :)
Great idea. More information = more power
Yessir!
This is a great vid. Right now I'm trying to figure out the southern rope exit... I can't figure out how to get to it.😢
Looking back at the video here… I actually failed you, and I’m sorry! It’s a bit more to the West.
Right next to where I put the R, there’s a little circle showing the ramp up and down. Stay above ground and move down the hallway. That next room where there’s another little circle (indicating a pillar in the middle of the room) is where the rope will drop.
Top middle module always has an open lions head behind the 2 mummies.
They changed that to a res shrine. Unless I’m confusing that with something else
Thank you great video
Thank you 🙂
One QoL change that would be extremely nice. Put a tunnel that connects the two bosses, but can't get to the loot room. This way if your forced to spam kill both bosses it's not a serious pain in travel, you can do both from the first room.
That’s fair, and would be really nice, but I don’t think it’s too hard to travel from one room to another. Most classes can do it in about a minute.
I can't even find the goddamn entrance to cyclops. That place is aptly named "Goblin maze" cause fucking hell...
The easiest way to explain is if you go into the NW corner of the room. There’s a ramp down heading South that brings you to one of the doors where you can fight him.
The other one is in the middle level. If you see the ladder, or dropped down where the ladder is - go to the opposite side (I want to say North, but that could be wrong…)
@@Deltsong Cheers lad. I'll curse my way in there eventually, gotta finish the Goblin quests😂
Just curious are there any forums or discs you utilize to get some of these insights or is everything pretty much experience?
I’ve got all bosses on farm in norms, pushing the same in high roller and looking for communities where more intermediate players may bounce ideas or tips off each other.
Appreciate the vid regardless, love your stuff
There used to be updated maps that I would use online, but they stopped being updated (GC is still the 3x3 map) so I basically just did this all from memory because of that.
People will occasionally discuss things on my discord, but more often than not it’s asking about classes, or just talking about class balance. But I’m sure if you wanted to start a discussion there some people would chime in :)
And thank you!
Thanks man
Of course :)
there are many ores in next to top left
That’s cool if they added that back (I honestly haven’t played the game in a little but). It was completely dry of any ore for a while.
Feedback: please add video timestamps! :)
Okay :)
ive played for a day i have no trouble navigating its just the upper right corner i usually cant find the extract get lost and die to cavern caving in
The goblin mine extract? Just look for the blue staircase on the mini map. It’s just in the wall there. And if someone took that already, I would usually just go to the portals directly south of there in the river :)
@@Deltsong i think i got bad luck i was playing yesterday i was getting sum good extract all of a sudden i start dying to everything lol
@@meme62227 that definitely happens some days 😅
Sometimes I do great and can fight everyone I see. Others days I shouldn’t, but I do anyway 😂
@@Deltsong nah like i suck at pvp but one time i was stuck in between 2 goblins couldnt do anything and died
W
Im a noob so other people probably wouldn't need this information...
but I was hanging around in the bottom right hand corner, I had seen the rope Icon so I thought i was find but when I went to look for it, I couldn't find how to access it, it looked like there was a trapped door or something I couldn't reach?
That one just drops down in the hallway right there next to the chests.
If you didn’t see it, it’s either because it was too early in the game or someone had already taken it. 😬
Edit: I just realized where you were probably coming from… In the room that has a hole in the floor, there’s a pressure plate that you can throw a torch or something on that opens a path at the top of the stairs.
can someone please tell me where popular pvp spots are because i feel like i can go 3 games without pvp
I usually just cycle through the center room and few rooms surrounding it and can usually find 3-4 players in solos or 2-3 teams in duos/trios. If you play high roller, people are more likely to be ratting around the outskirts though 🙃
Troll pelt is 10k rn

I would've appreciate if the video had an actual visual guidance rather than a map. I can find more accurate pic in dnd wiki...
I appreciate the effort, but for a beginner like myself, i find this unuseful
Okay, I can try to do something like that in the future. The DaD wiki pics haven’t seemed useful at all to me though in understanding map flow though. :)
@@Deltsong It would mean a lot to me and other beginners if you could do that for us.
you keep saying AP as if I'm supposed to know what that is as a new player lol
Adventure points - basically just the ranked system :)
@@Deltsong Thanks for the video and the quick response as well! One thing I've been wondering is about spawn locations. I'm trying to learn cave troll and I never seem to spawn anywhere near the module. Am also struggling on rogue in general since most my time has been on fighter.
@@oxykostis3153 darkanddarker.map.spellsandguns.com/map/Crypt-01-N
This is a good resource if you want to learn the spawn locations. After a while, you’ll eventually just learn where you are, but this map shows basically where anything is while you’re learning. Just pick what map you want and then unselect everything that you don’t want to see!
Or now you can just press M in game to pull up the map and see where you are :)
When it comes to rogue… The most viable playstyle (imo) is hand crossbow poke sadly… Once you get enough gear (true phys and dex) you can use the one shot build from stealth build, but without it… Good luck tbh 😅
