Ziggurat
In this guide, we will talk about the Ziggurat monument, which was added with the "Jungle" update.
General information about the monument
Ziggurat is the main monument of the jungle biome.
It is a tier 1 location.
It is the largest structure in this biome and stands out with its unusual pyramid-like architecture.
It has several entry points: through the main entrance, from the sides, or even via bamboo scaffolding on the outer walls, which allows you to climb all the way to the top.
Bots and loot
- ❌ There are no scientists at this location, so only wild animals and other players can bother you here. They will be everywhere :)
- ✅ Loot: ~4-6 normal crates, 2 basic crates (one of which contains a blowpipe and darts), and barrels scattered around the location.
Radiation and required items
- ☢️ There is no radiation.
- ✅ No special items or keycards are required to explore the location. It’s entirely up to you.
Recycler
- There is a Recycler at the location. You can find it on the first floor, near the pool of water.
How to find it
Open the map and look for it. Ziggurat spawns in the jungle biome.
Overview of the monument and its structure
The monument is a pyramid-shaped structure, overgrown with grass and partially ruined.
At the front, you will find a broken staircase and a gate with metal spikes, which once protected the main entrance. However, the gate is bent and the lock is broken, so anyone can enter.
There is also another entrance to the right of the main staircase.
Around the entire perimeter of the monument, there are bamboo scaffolding, allowing you to climb to the very top of the structure.
On the sides of the building, there are two huge pipes, most likely for water drainage.
At the back of the monument, behind a metal mesh fence, there is another entrance and more scaffolding and ladders leading to the top.
Around the location, you will also find water barrels.
Inside, in the very center of the monument, there is a freshwater pool surrounded by a partially destroyed platform.
There is also a hole in the ceiling with a hanging rope ladder leading to the roof.
How to loot:
The location is quite intuitive. You can start looting from the main entrance or from any other side — there are no restrictions.
So, let's just discuss where the crates can spawn.
The first regular crate can be found behind the gate at the main entrance.
As you go inside, you’ll see more crates on the platform. Usually, there are about two crates here.
The most important crate on the location should also be mentioned.
It is located to the left of the main entrance, where two huge pipes enter the building.
This is the basic crate, where you can find the blowpipe and darts.
In addition, you can find two or three more crates on the roof.
You can get there from any side of the monument using various methods:
- climb the bamboo scaffolding outside;
- use the central rope ladder inside;
- or just pick any other route depending on the situation.
Result
Ziggurat is considered a starter location, which means surviving here will be very hard, especially at the beginning of the wipe.
You could even say it’s almost impossible, given the challenging conditions.
However, there are also advantages.
The main one is a unique crate, which contains a blowpipe.
This weapon can be very useful in the early game.
With it, you can effectively ambush enemies and perform well in open confrontations with other players.
