Travel Advisory/Warnings
- It has many treacherous parkour jumps that are fatal if failed.
- The entrance is a short jump puzzle and isn't too hard except for a couple of 3 block jumps that look impossible but are actually fairly easy.
- Bring many water bottles, because the closest place to find water is in one of the pools of water between here and Aurora, but if you have a button, there is a source in the graveyard with the health potion chests.
- It is suggested that you get potions from Aurora. Bring food so you can make it here, but once you get in, you can survive off of the food you get from the chest in the pub.
- Before arriving here, it is recommended to collect a lot of buttons to get the high-tier chests multiple times.
- If you want to get to the vault there's a secret passage in the library, behind the cobwebs.
- It has a timed parkour challenge with a double room_rare chest as a reward. You can access it with a button or being timed if zombies spawn in the room and step on the pressure plate, but you will still need to do parkour.
- This town can only be reached by passing Aurora then continuing Northeast in the Cave System.
- Very unlikely to meet anyone here. It is usually devoid of survivors due to how far it is in the Cave System and its loot doesn't make up for the high risks you gotta take to get to it.
- Zombie pigmen do not spawn here as it is below -2000, however watch out for the zombies as they can push you off the walkway into the lava lake below.
Trivia
- Barathrum is Latin for "Infernal region", according to the builder of this location. It makes sense as this place is deadly and full of lava.
- It contains the 3 elemental symbols with the exception of water. They have no real purpose or don't explain anything about the location or Lore.
- The grave of the builder that submitted it, SunkenStar, can be found in the graveyard alongside others.
