A screenshot of the upper area of Altin

Altin is an underground town located in the Cave System. Players can get here through the cave near the stairs at Intersection. Deeper in the caves nearby is Ephirion, which has a few more food chests. Although the loot is well-rounded, a majority of the chests give high-tier civilian loot. The two potion chests here are some of the best in the cave system. Altin also contains 3 mil_rares, which can yield some basic supplies to fight with.

Travel Advisory/Warnings

  • DO NOT JUMP INTO THE LAKE. The lake is 2 water blocks deep and after that, it's just void. If you fall into the void you'll die instantly. Use the ladders by the lake to get down safely into the water and avoid having any zombies nearby when going in.
  • There's a cake located in The Black Swan Inn.
  • The brewing stands are located in _SealClubber's Squeal and Deal.
  • There's a closet in the house next to Therum's Shrine that has several red mushrooms, for any avid red mushroom collectors.
  • You are unlikely to encounter players in this location. If you do, make an effort to use the terrain to your advantage. It is very easy to die of fall damage here, and the deadly lake can make a strong camping spot if you have a good bow.
  • Although zombies are mostly absent from this location, you should be on the lookout for wolf packs or the occasional Shiver.
    • It will take at least 7 bow shots to kill a shiver with the unenchanted bows you get here - don't engage one if you can't finish the job!
  • The well-rounded military and tool loot makes this a fantastic place to camp without being bothered by other players.
  • Thanks to the graveyard, the civ_rare chests, and the lack of players, Altin is an exceedingly good place to find buttons and small bags.

Trivia

  • The fact that falling into the lake can kill you has to do with most of the water being frozen or really cold. Most of the water springs here have ice and mycelium surrounding them.
  • This was a location added on October 1st, 2017. The light blue stained glass "crystals" that cover some walls and ceilings of the cave were originally orange.
  • Inside one of the rooms of the inn there's a suit (banner) hanging on the wall.
  • There's a list of shipments in the mineshaft. The places listed are Eillom, Mining Town, Al Hasa, Frostine Valley Acres, Whitehaven and Yongton Abbey.
    • The time for the Al Hasa Shipments is a reference to the time of Suicide Saturday, a time during the weekend when clans get together to PVP each other. SS has since been pushed forward two hours, to 7:00 PM EST.
  • The word Altin is a reference to a village of the same name found in the game Golden Sun.
  • Some graves are named after the builders of this location (Avviore, Derussiander, FlyingSquid, Valkyrion, 66tee, PineFrost64)
    • One grave was named "Here Lies NOT Jacsebalon" due to the sheer number of graves on the map with his name on them; For example, an old build of Arbreton had four of them.
  • _SealClubber, a MineZ Mini Admin, owns the Tavern, _SealClubber's Squeal and Deal. This tavern used to be named The Flying Drunkard.

Lore

  • There's a Lore Book related to Therum's Shrine here. It is located in the well.

Letters - Armoni

Mother,
We hope your travels to the Goddess' shrine are well. It must be different to travel so far away from home, I don't know how you do it! In turn though, we miss you greatly. It's not home without you.
-Blessings,
Armoni
