- The player should also spawn to the left of the Fable Biome. The Fable is a great source of Fabled Scrap as well as containing many Shrines that can give you powerful weapons and Life Crystals. The Fable also houses two early bosses to fight being Jack and Daedus The Forgotten.
- The Virulent can be found inside the Jungle which contains enemies that drop Virulent Plating that can be crafted into a good early game armor of Virulent Armor and also a good movement Accessory of Acid Skaters.
- The Abysm can be found under the Ice Biome which contains enemies that drop Convulging Matter that can be used to craft powerful early items.

- One of the main sources of materials for weapons is Delgrim who sells Blank Items and Weapon Drives that are used for many of Lunar Veil's weapons.

The Cathedral can be found floating over the biome which contains many chests to obtain basic materials and an Empty Moonflame Lantern which should be acquired for later in progression. Veldris can also be found, selling many assassin-themed items. Sirestias can also be found, providing tips for what to do next.
Mechanics ![Temple Key Part (Lunar Veil).png](/images/3/3e/Temple_Key_Part_%28Lunar_Veil%29.png)

- Lunar Veil adds many subclasses to pre-existing classes like the Card and Powder subclasses for Magic
- Lunar Veil makes the Eye of Cthulhu more powerful, adding new flame-based attacks.
- The Temple Key now takes much longer to obtain, Plantera now only drops a mold for the key and you have to defeat Zui to unlock Ishtar and do a quest for Ereshkigal which allows you to summon the Supernova Fragment who drops the Temple Key Part which can be combined with the mold to make the Temple Key
Early Boss Progression ![Steali (Lunar Veil).png](/images/b/bd/Steali_%28Lunar_Veil%29.png)
- If the player thinks they're ready enough, they can use the Another Rock and descend down into the Old Guardian's Shrine to fight the Stone Guardian. The Stone Guardian is not that tough of a fight by itself, the main challenge is the resulting Gintze Army that invades immediately after the Stone Guardian is killed.
- The Stone Guardian provides the Stone Key which can unlock chests with valuable loot inside the Shrine.
- The Gintze Army is a great source of Gintzl Metal and Alcadiz Metal two very important resources later for the mod. At the end of the invasion, winds start blowing and Commander Gintzia arrives.
- Commander Gintzia is the best source of Gintzl Metal in the invasion as well as dropping various shinobi items.
- The player should then use the Gintzl Metal gained from the invasion to make new gear.
- The next intended thing to do is to head to the desert and fight the Sun Stalker.
- The Sun Stalker yields various sun-related weapons to use for future enemies.
- The next boss can be found in the Fable Biome being Jack.
- Jack yields Wandering Flames which can be used to make new gear and Arnchalite Bars.
- The Eye of Cthulhu can be fought next being one of the most important bosses in Pre-Hardmode.
- The Eye of Cthulhu drops THE MOST IMPORTANT ACCESSORY IN THE MOD PLEASE USE THIS the Steali.
- The Eye of Cthulhu's defeat triggers the chance of an Aurorean Starfall to happen during nighttime yielding Aurorean Stars.
- The Eye of Cthulhu drops the new material of Dark Essence and triggering Shade Slimes to start spawning that also drop Dark Essence.
- The player should now make a lot of new gear with what the Eye of Cthulhu triggers due to the next 2 bosses being the most important ones yet.
- Heading down into the depths of the Fable, the player can find resting grounds that can be disturbed to summon Daedus The Forgotten.
- Daedus drops Gothivias Seal allowing access into Govheil Castle.
- The player should go to Govheil Castle and loot the chests and kill the enemies to obtain many upgrades.
- The next boss is the first Manifestation Boss in the mod Dreadmire, the summoning item for her can either be found in pieces across 3 Dread Altars in different parts of the world or these pieces can be crafted from Terror Fragments. Dreadmire is the hardest boss yet, dishing out many high damage attacks.
- The player should now make many upgrades from the Dread Foil and Luminull Spirit Fragments that Dreadmire drops.
- The Luminull Spirit Fragments can also be crafted into the first Completion Idol with Cozmire's Veiled Scripture
- The player should now go to the Crimson or Corruption and fight the Brain of Cthulhu/Eater of Worlds.
- Now the player can mine through the Cinderspark and access The Underworld.
- The player can also mine to the Drakonic Manor where the player can trade in Manifestations to Ordin for powerful weapons. The Drakonic Manor also houses many chests that yield powerful weapons.
- The first Manifestation Weapon you can acquire is Dreadmire's Dread's Vile.
- The player should also pester Ordin about Sigfried to obtain Sigfrieds Photo Album which is useful for much later.

- In the middle of the temple, a large circular arena can be found. In the middle of it an altar can be interacted with the Void Key to summon the Singularity Fragment.
- The Singularity Fragment drops the Void Lantern which can be combined with the Empty Moonflame Lantern found in the Cathedral to make the Moonflame Lantern.
- Now with new gear obtained from the temple the player can head to the Dungeon and fight Skeletron.
- With your new Dungeon gear the player should now head to the Cathedral and fight the second Manifestation Boss in the mod Verlia Of The Moon. Verlia is the biggest threat in Pre-Hardmode, having a wide array of powerful moves to defeat you.
- Verlia can be defeated 3 times to obtain the Vixyl.
- Verlia provides the very important material of Pearlescent Scrap as well as a Stolen Magic Tome which is used to progress Merena's questline.
