Beneath the Underground Jungle is the Vault, a large technical installation reminiscent of the Hiisi Base but far more dangerous.

Layout and hazards

The Vault resembles a giant abandoned underground factory, with rusted steel beams and platforms as far as the eye can see. Various machines resembling generators are dotted throughout the area which explode into an area of freezing vapour or fire upon destruction, depending on the gas emanating from their spout. Beneath the rusted metals you'll find compositions of Vault Rock, a hardier version of normal rock that is tough to dig through. Pools and vats of toxic sludge are common, with no naturally occurring water to purify it with. Explosive crates, propane tanks, toxic sludge barrels and oil barrels make a return. Large acid containers, both on the ground and hanging from the ceiling, make an appearance here. Occasionally, the path will be blocked by small pipes, but these can be dug through fairly easily.

Points of Interest

A giant vat of acid can often be found here. It is encased in glass, hinting that glass is the only material that doesn't corrode from exposure to acid. It can be easily broken just like ice, and if this is done then the contents will leak out, destroying much terrain (and possibly some enemies).
One of the Fungal Altars can be found here around the center of the biome, right before the entrance to the next Holy Mountain.
A large brain looking object can spawn here, destroying it will often reveal a Max Health Upgrade hidden inside.

Enemies

The Vault is littered with dangerous enemies, with a strong emphasis on robotic types and monstrosities:

... and more

Some rarer spawns include:

Connected Areas

Proceeding through the portals at the bottom will lead you to the final area of the main path.

The Fungal Caverns can be accessed through the top-west corner of the biome, leading further west to an orb room as well as back up to the Underground Jungle.

Puzzles

This page or section includes possible gameplay spoilers or secrets. Tread carefully.

A spherical structure found in the Vault. It has two randomly chosen symbols which determine what you must fill it with in order to receive one of two possible Unique wands. Only one of the clues needs to be followed for each puzzle.

The symbols and what you have to fill it with are:


Bersekium or Pheromone	Healthium AND either Lively Concoction or Pheromone	Invisiblium	Polymorphine or Chaotic Polymorphine

Ambrosia	Acceleratium or Levitatium	Teleportatium or Unstable Teleportatium	Worm Blood

Symbols with multiple liquids listed means that you can use either one. In the case of the heart, you can use Lively Concoction or Pheromone, but they both must be accompanied by Healthium.

-The Vault resembles a giant underground factory, with steel beams and platforms leading to and from various machines resembling generators are dotted throughout the area which explode into an area of [[Freezing Vapours|freezing vapour]] or [[fire]] upon destruction, depending on the gas emanating from their spout. Beneath the steel beams you'll find vault rock with some normal rock mixed in. Pools and vats of [[Toxic Sludge|toxic sludge]] are common, with no naturally occurring [[water]] to purify it with. Explosive crates, propane tanks, toxic sludge barrels and oil barrels make a return. Acid containers, both on the ground and hanging from the ceiling, make an appearance here. Due to the materials used in its construction, digging in the Vault is severely restricted without powerful mining [[spells]]. Occasionally, the path will be blocked by small pipes, but these can be dug through fairly easily.
