Main Quest: Geode Topside - Talk to Hero in the Trove Hub to help explore the Geode Topside! You can find Hero near Qubesly on the balcony of the Leader board Lounge North of the Landing Pad.

Catch up with with Hero to Learn about Geode Topside

Stationed at each Geode Topside landing pad are Sunseeker Taskmasters that offer Adventures to those who wish to go above and beyond for some extra rewards. If you have a moment we could use the extra assistance.\n\nComplete a Geode Topside Outpost Adventure.

The Shadows here on Geode are not like those on your home planet. They are stronger, darker, and deadlier than their Trovian counterparts. Because of this, the Sunseeker technique imbues the essence of light directly into Crystal equipment. With 250+ Gearcrafting skill, use a Gearcrafter's Forge and craft a piece of Crystal equipment. Crystal gear can be broken down into Forge Fragments and Cosmic Gem Dust.

Forge Crystal Gear

It's time to enhance your Crystal gear, Trovian. I've given you some Crystalline Cores to start you off. Between those and the Forge Fragments you collected, all that's left is Topside ore. \n\nUpgrade a Crystal item using a Forge.

Increase a Crystal Item's Star Level

The Shadows have built a new kind of stronghold on our surface. One that summons great numbers of their forces to attempt to overrun our shuttle outposts and keep us from advancing further into their territory. It will be especially important to keep these at bay.\n\nComplete a 5-Star Dungeon on Geode Topside worlds.

Complete a 5-Star Dungeon

Excellent! We'll make a Sunseeker of you yet. The Shadows have built strongholds on the Geode Topside much like the Dungeons on your home planet. Tearing these fortresses down is crucial in the fight to take back our home from these invaders.\n\nDefeat Dungeon bosses in Geode Topside worlds.

Defeat Geode Dungeon Bosses

Equip your newly forged Crystal gear!

Equip Crystal Gear

Crystal gear and weapons are unlike the equipment you find on Trove. To upgrade, they require a special component called Forge Fragments. While occasionally you may find Forge Fragments strewn throughout the Topside, your best bet is to acquire them by Loot-Collecting Crystal gear.

Collect Forge Fragments

You'll need a greater boost in power if you want to take on some of the tougher Servants of Shadow. Cosmic Gem Boxes will contain gems, and materials needed to upgrade them.\n\nCollect Cosmic Gem Boxes from mini-bosses and dungeon bosses in Geode Topside worlds.

Collect Cosmic Gem Boxes

With your new Crystal gear equipped you are ready to take on the Shadows. Venture out into the Geodian Topside and defeat some enemies.\n\nDefeat Geode Topside enemies.

Defeat Enemies on Geode Topside

Before you can fight the Shadows here on the Topside, you're going to need upgrades. That means you'll need some Veridium and Nitro-Glitterine. You mine the Veridium and I'll provide the Nitro-Glitterine!\n\nVeridium can be found all over the Geode Topside. Mine Veridium for fun and profit!

Mine Veridium

Pearls of Wisdom are considered as precious on Geode as they are on Trove. They can be used to enhance your Crystal gear and weapons so that you can continue to overpower the Shadows.\n\nApply a Pearl of Wisdom to a piece of Crystal Gear using an Enchanted Forge.

Apply a Pearl of Wisdom to a Crystal Item

You're almost ready, Trovian, but my dark brethren do not play fair. I have one last thing to teach you.\n\nUse Cosmic Gem Dust acquired from Cosmic Gem Boxes to enhance your Cosmic Gems using the Gems Tab on the Character Sheet [HK:CharacterSheet].

Trovian, long time no see. Last time we met I was saving you from Todstrom. Look how far you have come!\n\nThe Sunseekers have managed to set up base camps on the Geode Topside deep within Shadow territory. Your combat skills are sorely needed to turn the tides of battle in our favor! \n\nOpen the Atlas with [HK:Atlas] and travel to a Geode Topside world.

Side Quest: Geode Cave Expertise - Talk to Amberine in the Trove Hub to start your adventure into the depths of the Geode caves and unlock better equipment for your discovery suit. You can find Amberine at the entrance to the Geodian Guild Hall.

Talk to Amberine to Start the Geode Caves Expertise Quest

It's time to explore the depths of Geode, Trovian! I'm Amberine. The caves are too dangerous for most Geodians, but the Sunseekers have opened portals just for Trovians like you. You can use either the portal down below in the Geodian Guild Hall or the Atlas to get to Geode. Once you land in Geode take an airavator down to the Mining Facility and use the purple portal to Moonglow Grotto.

Go to Moonglow Grotto

The main parts of your discovery suit are the GAS, or Geodian Acclimation System, and N-Charge. The GAS allows you to withstand the caves' atmosphere longer, while the N-Charge powers the rest of your modules.\n\nMy favorite module is the Climbing Claw! It can grapple onto higher ledges or knock back critters - without injury, of course. We Geodians would never harm a thing!\n\nUse your Climbing Claw and latch onto a wall or ledge.

Use Your Climbing Claw

For all your gathering needs, you've got the Omni-Tool.\n\nIt's short-range for now, but you can upgrade that later at the Module Forge.\n\nUse your Omni-Tool.

Use Your Omni-Tool

YOU THERE! If you MUST invade the home of the creatures who live in these caves, I insist you help them.\n\nI had Amberine give you Critter Treats, Curing Kits, and Comfort Blankets to tend to the cave critters you find. They should already be equipped to your hotkey bar. If you run out, make more at our sanctuary's Crystallogy Center using materials from the caves.\n\nHelp 3 cave critters. Use Critter Treats on hungry critters, Curing Kits on injured critters, and Comfort Blankets on cold critters.

Help 3 Cave Critters

Oof. Did Sunseeker Gabbro yell at you? Our Companion Master's frazzled after caring for all the creatures being hurt by Shadows... He doesn't mean anything by it.\n\nWhy don't you go gather some materials for us? That would get you in Gabbro's good graces for sure.\n\nUse your Omni-Tool to gather 40 gleamstone, moonstone, day drops, or dream dew in Moonglow Grotto.

Gather in Moonglow Grotto

Travel through the caves as far as you can!\n\nOnce your GAS (the red meter on your toolbar) runs out, one of our trained adventurers will come fetch you.\n\nExplore the area until you run out of GAS. You can also return to the Geode Sanctuary at any time by pressing [HK:Homeworld].
