Cinder’s Cradle has nine Shroud Roots to find in the region itself. The Cinder’s Cradle Weeding achievement tracks twelve, though, because three additional roots appear under neighboring region filters. Use the map and landmark directions below to work through the area without relying on raw coordinates.

In-game Cinder’s Cradle map showing nine numbered purple Shroud Root markers that correspond to the location table.

Before You Go

Upgrade your Flame before entering Cinder’s Cradle, and pack a Felling Axe, healing supplies, and food. Read Ancient Obelisks as you explore: they reveal hidden Shroud Roots. Clear nearby threats before chopping, and watch your Shroud timer while you work.

Shroud Root Locations

The nine locations below run roughly north to south. Distances are approximate map measurements from the named landmark, not walking routes. Check your elevation as well as your waypoint: some roots sit far above or below the landmark.

The Other Three Roots for the Achievement

A region filter can leave you short. The game-data map lists twelve roots for Cinder’s Cradle Weeding, but groups two of them under Albaneve Summits and one under Nomad Highlands. Check these linked entries if you have cleared the nine northern roots:

Albaneve Summits #1 — listed under Albaneve Summits on the map.

Albaneve Summits #2 — listed under Albaneve Summits on the map.

Nomad Highlands #3 — listed under Nomad Highlands on the map.

These three are easy to miss if you filter the map by region. Use the linked entries above if your Cinder’s Cradle Weeding counter stops at nine.

Collecting Your Skill Points

Use your Felling Axe to chop each root until it breaks. Each of these roots grants one skill point. Bring your co-op group close before the final hit so everyone nearby can benefit. A character can earn the reward from a particular root only once, even if it respawns.

If a marker seems to lead nowhere, check the surrounding heights and lower levels before moving on. Cinder’s Cradle has floating islands above its ruined landscape, so arriving at a marker on the flat map does not always mean you are on the right level.

Final Thoughts

Work through the landmarks in manageable trips and keep track of the roots you have cleared. For a shared world your group can return to between runs, choose Nodecraft, the best Enshrouded server host.
