Dungeon Keys

Keys are the initial way of navigating Dungeons. They can be found inside Dungeon chests within the Demon Realm, or they can be crafted. The most basic kind are Iron Keys, which spawn inside The Antechamber as well as within the closest levels of the Demon Realm proper.

Eventually, you may come across a Spatial Distortion when searching through a Dungeon. These will either lead you to a unique, uncraftable key, or to a door that only said key can open. Spatial Distortions only form within the Demon Realm proper, and you will never find them within an Antechamber.

The entrance to The Mines can only be opened with the uncraftable Foreman's Key, while all other doors beyond that can be opened with Miner's Keys. The mines will grant you access to Demonite ore alongside some rarer loot, but comes with challenges to match.

If it's so simple, why can't we just pick the lock?

It's off to work we go..!
