Icarus Beta: All Caves Guide

• Caves are not a guaranteed spawn, even the same prospect can change their state
• Caves can spawn exposed (open), blocked by rocks (closed), or locked (do not appear)
• There are two types of caves:
  – Small caves spawn ores
  -Larger tunnel caves lead to unknown areas

How to find Hidden Caves (thanks to DeathEmber!):

• You can test Cave Entrences using the PickAxe.
• The PickAxe does not interact with regular world cliffs
• If you swing your pick at a cave entrance wall you’ll get the distinct ‘♥♥♥♥♥’ noise and a spray of sparks ,indicating there is a cave behind the barrier
• If stone will breaks away, you have found an active Cave
• If it continues to ‘clink’, this confirms you’ve found the cave, but it is locked in this prospect

These are upcoming changes to Caves in Beta 2:

• There were be over 30 caves in the Beta 2 playable area
• Caves will be less safe
• They will be a key area you will want to explore. Later on they might not always be safe!
• Caves will spawn metal ores vs them being out in the open
• Rock, Oxite and other non-metallic ores should spawn normally

• K11 – Large Cave/tunnel to an unknown area
• L12 – Small Cave with ores (Iron, Gold, Platinum, Titanium)
• M11 – Small Cave with ores (Iron, Gold, Platinum, Titanium)
