Once you complete the Powerful Alchemy mission of Ancient Spire in the Springfields and meet Balthazar the Alchemist, he immediately starts assigning a string of quests.

Completing these unlocks the Alchemist’s ability to craft more potent equipments and base of operations like the Laboratory in Enshrouded.

Here are the various bases where the Alchemist can work in Enshrouded:

  • Mortar
  • Alchemy Station
  • Laboratory

You need to complete the following string of missions to get to a stage where you can craft the Laboratory in Enshrouded:

  • An Eternal Spell Quest
  • The Alchemist’s Rumor
  • The Alchemist’s Mortar
  • Carpentry Assistance
  • A Black Cauldron for the Alchemist
  • Scientific Instruments for a Laboratory

The Scientific Instruments for a Laboratory is the final and most interesting mission of them all. It requires you to find certain scientific instruments in the Research Tower and retrieve them back to the Alchemist.

To complete this particular mission, you need to go through Kindlewastes up to the Eldermere Dam Excavation Site. It is located to the east of the Nomad Highlands Tower. You’ll come across a Shroud-filled Chasm due East.

Enter the Chasm and continue to travel east until you reach an open valley with no Shrouds. Look for an Excavation site built into the mountain and also bird nests, as you’ll find the scientific instruments inside them.

Be careful of the Vultures that lurk, they are tough and resilient creatures. The best strategy to perish them is to shoot them from afar with a bow and an arrow in Enshrouded.

Once you procure the scientific instruments, head back to the Alchemist to complete the quest. Now, the Alchemist will be able to build the Laboratory in Enshrouded.
