AFK Journey Corrupt Creature
What Are They?
As mentioned before, the AFK Journey Corrupt Creature is a type of enemy in the game that you can encounter. They randomly show up all over the world map just like other creatures, but they are rare to come across. They mostly spawn in the Dark Forest and Vaduso Mountains, but that can always vary. Defeating these creatures in a battle or challenge will of course earn you rewards. First time rewards are very amazing, giving you a good amount of Training Manuals, Soulstones and Gold. On the other hand, assistance rewards are not as amazing, but they are good enough for hunting the creatures down and fighting them for sure.
Unlike the regular battles, defeating them is very different. Whenever you’re fighting them, you will need to co-op with 1 or 2 other players as a team of 2 or 3 to defeat them. There are no set spawn areas for them and it depends on your luck how many Corrupt Creatures you will get in your world map or server. However, how do you find these creatures?
