Guide to the Southern Cave in Risk of Rain Returns. Find items like Healing Capsules, Old Coin, and Camouflage Fatigues, and acquire the Mosquito Tank.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Enter the cave southeast of Leorad. It's advisable to gain a few levels and purchase better equipment like the Bow Gun and Healing Capsules before entering.
  2. 2
    Level 1: Descend the slope. To the far left, up a narrow passage and then left, you'll find a wooden box containing a Healing Capsule.
  3. 3
    Level 2: From the bottom of the ramp, head up and left through a narrow passage to find a wooden box with 57g.
  4. 4
    Continue right, ignoring side paths. At the far right wall, go down a narrow passage and then left. You'll find two chests: one with an Old Coin and another with 106 gold.
  5. 5
    Approach the large dog (Bionic Pooch). Answer 'Yes' when prompted to engage in a scripted fight.
  6. 6
    Survive for two rounds. The Bionic Pooch's attacks are strong, so use Guard or healing items. After two rounds, Red Wolf will appear and defeat the Bionic Pooch.
  7. 7
    After the fight, claim the Camouflage Fatigues from the wooden box to the right of the green tank.
  8. 8
    Approach the green tank and select 'Check' to acquire the Mosquito Tank. You can rename it or keep the default name.
Tips
  • The Old Coin can help in getting a better sale price for items if you have good luck. Save before using it.
  • The Bionic Pooch can be dangerous on foot. If you are not prepared, run away.
  • If you are aiming for the Puppy Gourmet drop from the Bionic Pooch (a rare 4th-round drop), focus on defending and healing. Red Wolf might take two rounds to defeat the enemy, increasing your chances.
  • Red Wolf will appear regardless of whether you spoke to him in the bar at Leorad.
  • The Mosquito Tank has its own menu for checking equipment, tools, and status.
