You’ll be spending a lot of time in the game’s Krypt after finishing the main mode of Mortal Kombat 11 and its Aftermath DLC, as well as making it through Classic Towers and Towers of Time. Many of the game’s customizable items and gear are located in this third-person exploring section, and if they’re available here, they won’t be in the other modes.
When you first start, the Krypt can be confusing because it’s full of puzzles, secret tunnels, and different kinds of chests. However, with the help of our Mortal Kombat 11 Krypt guide, you can sort through everything and obtain the gear of your dreams.
How Does Krypt Work?
You are tasked with gathering as much treasure as you can afford from the vast dungeon that is the Mortal Kombat 11 Krypt. Chests that can be opened with the Koins currency you’ve been accumulating throughout your play through the game’s different modes may be found running along the walls and in the center of almost every region you visit.
The worth of the goods within a chest determines how much it costs to open it in the Krypt. Smaller stuff like development art or music can be found in a chest priced at 2,000 Koins, whereas character-specific gear, augmentation items, or skins can be found in chests priced at or above 8,000 Koins.
More about it later.) and by creating new routes in the Krypt. However, returning to the Towers and engaging in combat with adversaries is the main means to obtain additional Koins. Hearts and Soul Fragments are the other two currencies found in the Krypt.
The frightening mask atop rare chests indicates which ones require hearts to open. You can spend 250 Hearts to unlock the contents after smashing this. These hold some of the greatest rewards in the whole game, including multiple character customization items.
You can use Scorpion’s Spear to destroy the dead that is located hanging in the Krypt itself and perform Fatalities during matches to earn Hearts. You’ll start finding green Soul Chests shortly after you start the Krypt, and you can use Soul Fragments to access them.
These are earned by playing regular games and sometimes by finishing specific objectives in the Krypt, but you can’t use them to access Soul Chests until you’ve obtained Ermac’s Soul Amulet. They won’t affect you until you’ve gone farther into the Krypt.
What Are the Benefits of Finding Important Objects in the Krypt?
A large portion of your progress in the Krypt is dependent on important objects strewn over the large terrain. These have different purposes, but they’re all related to enabling you to keep going to new places and getting better equipment.
The most significant things you’ll find are listed below, along with what they enable you to accomplish. They are arranged according to when you should buy them.
Shao Kahn’s Hammer
Shao Kahn’s Hammer is there in front of you as soon as you enter the Krypt, making it hard to overlook. You’ll need to demolish broken doors and walls with the hammer, which is located in the same chamber. As you advance, you must search for damaged places since, frequently, huge rooms full of riches can be found behind them.
Additionally, you can break down skeletons and pots strewn about the Krypt with Shao Kahn’s Hammer. You will receive a meager quantity of Koins in return for this, but it is so insignificant that it won’t have much of an impact on the number of chests you may open.
Gem of the Living and Cracked Horn of the Motaro
You’ll need the Gem of the Living, a unique artifact, to advance farther into the Krypt and reach Goro’s lair, which holds some of the best loot in the entire game. Once you’re in the open space, walk toward the center and then north until you come to a section where multiple character sculptures are located.
If you move forward, the Raiden statue will be destroyed by a meteorite. To obtain the Gem of the Living, strike the meteorite with your hammer. In order to advance farther into the Krypt, you’ll also need the Cracked Horn of the Motaro, which you can only obtain once you’ve obtained the Gem of the Living.
To enter the subterranean section and open a door close to Kronika’s Time Vault, use the Gem of the Living. Inside, there is an unlockable gate where you can discover the horn. You can enter Goro’s Lair Door on the western side of the outdoor area by using the horn.
Ermac’s Soul Amulet
To open the annoying green glowing Soul Chests you’ve been seeing all around the Krypt, you’ll need this item. Once you’ve entered Goro’s Lair, keep going until you come to a large hall with a banquet area and a statue in front.
Proceed and use the steps to stroll around the outside. In the front-right corner, you will find a chain that you may pull to unlock a gate. Proceed in this manner, find him in the chamber, and watch as a cutscene of a man being impaled appears.
Now that he possesses Ermac’s Soul Amulet, those chests can be opened. Certain new paths can also be unlocked with Ermac’s Soul Amulet. For the first time, you’ll use it to get out of the rock-filled cavern where you discovered the amulet.
Spear of Hanzo Hasahi (Scorpion’s Spear)
Scorpion’s Spear is also located within Goro’s Lair, but you’ll need to go to the southeast section’s Armory area to find it. Once you’re in this region, keep looking until you come across a vertical line that is blazing and runs along a pillar. To pull the spear and equip it, interact with it.
Scorpion’s Spear can be used to interact with several environmental items, such as drawbridges if you have it. But the spear’s primary function is to bring down any bodies that may be dangling above your location. These are destroyed and typically hold the hearts needed to access the priceless chests in the Krypt.
The Forge
Occasionally, while opening chests, you’ll come across materials that aren’t meant for customization or to open up new routes; these are referred to as “Forge Items” and are located on their own page in the Krypt menu.
They will be useless to you at the beginning of your stay in the Krypt, but soon you will find a gong that you can hit with a hammer to open the route to the Forge. The Forge is a scary place with flames behind it, but you can produce rewards by feeding it items you’ve collected.
The materials you add determine the benefits you receive, but if you add the incorrect resources, you might not receive anything at all from the Forge. Don’t try it again if you toss in three items and it doesn’t work; you’ll get the same outcome each time.
To create anything, the Forge requires not only resources but also money. Before you put materials into the forge, make sure their combination will yield anything useful. This can come in the form of Koins, Soul Fragments, and Hearts.
