Set Piece

Set Pieces (listed as Boons in the custom world screen) are naturally spawned structures in both Sandbox Mode and Adventure Mode. They are introduced since the Doorway to Adventure Update. They are rare structures. Players can usually find valuable Items in the set piece. However, some set pieces serve as a trap and players will have to bear the risk when trying to take advantage of the boon, such as retrieving items from the set piece.

The Skeleton beside set pieces represents those dead adventurers on the island. Also note that the name of these set pieces are unofficial, they are nicknames created by the community.

Cave Camp
It has two Farms, a Chest, an Icebox, a Science Machine and a Tent.

Near the camp lies the skeleton with straw hat and pitchfork.

Ice box contains some spoiled food and the chest some items that can be found in caves (gold nuggets, slurtle slime, it can contain gems)

Contagious Rot Trap
Many Rots are lying around. If you open a Chest or Backpack, all food sources inside your inventory will turn stale. However, you can avoid this by dropping all your food away from the trap and then opening the chest. However this could be a problem if there are pig houses nearby. Inside the opened chest, there is a large amount of Rot. The Chest may have Blueprints. It can be found in Survival Mode.

Crock Pot Camp


This is a camp found in Adventure Mode. The camp is surrounded by some Hay Walls and there is a Crock Pot nearby. Several Skeletons are found beside the camp.

Disused Beefalo Pen Trap


The Disused Beefalo Pen Trap can be found in Survival Mode. It is usually located in a Savanna Biome, and consists of a long wood wall fencing that curls around a squarish piece of land, inside of which are several pieces of Bones and Beefalo Wool, conveying the idea of an old Beefalo pen. You will find a Chest at the entrance, which contains 1 Fire Staff, 4 Gunpowder and 4 Logs. However, the chest is trapped and will light aflame if you open it without preparations. The fire will cause the gunpowder to explode and eventually light the entire wooden fencing. It is possible for the player to open the chest without triggering the trap.

Hint: "Preparations" to disable the trap when opening the chest involve something very basic and doable on the player's end. It is not related to weather or other elements uncontrollable by the player.

Fire Staff Trap


Fire Staff Trap is similar to that of the Ice Staff Trap, except there are Fire Hounds instead of ice hounds. Once the Fire Staff is picked up, it will begin to rain.

Ice Staff Trap


An Ice Staff is surrounded by 5 sleeping Ice Hounds. Once the Ice Staff is taken the hounds will wake up and attack you. Players are recommended to kill the Ice Hounds one by one, since the hounds stay asleep even when their companions are killed. Once the Ice Staff is picked up, it will begin to Rain.

Icebox Trap


There is a Chest located in a Forest biome spawned between a Winterometer and an Ice Box. The chest itself contains an assortment of winter-related items such as an Ice Staff, a Winter Hat and a Breezy Vest. However, upon opening the chest, winter starts immediately. It also spawns the Deerclops near the chest. Destroying the chest with a Hammer drops its loot, but still triggers the trap. On trap activation, Wolfgang says 'Whoops' and Wilson says 'Ooops' (untested with other characters.)

(If the player finds an icebox trap it can be used to their advantage by opening it on the first day of winter, thus providing the player with the winter items without the negative effects of immediate winter.)

Killer Bee Hayfield


A Killer Bee Hayfield is a field with Grass and 3 Killer Beehives. It can be found in Survival Mode. The grass makes it difficult to effectively target the bees. This also has version with Guardian Pigs.

Living Forest


A highly forested area with a large group of treeguards roaming around or sleeping, often more than 5. The treeguards are not aggressive to the player if not provoked. It can be found in Survival Mode on any day.

MacTusk Village


MacTusk Village is a group of Walrus Camps surrounded by a wall of Trees on three sides.

This is a dangerous place in daytime, as numerous MacTusks, WeeTusks and Ice Hounds spawn, aggressive to everything. Players are not recommended to stay overnight at MacTusk Village.

Maxwell's Cemetery
Maxwell's Cemetery contains Graves, Marble Pillars, Evil Flowers, and Carpeted Flooring; two Maxwell Statues and a Shovel are also found here. The Graves that populate the Cemetery are the same as those found within a Graveyard (i.e. they drop the same items when destroyed and can spawn Ghosts). It can be found in Survival Mode. Each Grave has a different name on it when examined, which correspond with the names of the members of the development team at Klei Entertainment. After digging up every Grave, a Ghost will spawn in place of every dug up Grave.

Maxwell’s Swamp


A Maxwell Statue surrounded by Evil Flowers is at the end of a brick road. The road is lined with Rundown Houses which spawn Merms. However, next to the Rundown Houses is a thin strip of Marsh, containing many Tentacles. The merms proceed to attack either the player or the Tentacles, but reaching the statue without aggravating the merms is impossible. This trap was found on Adventure Mode, Two Worlds.

A very similar trap, also on Two Worlds, is a Maxwell Statue surrounded by Flowers lined by Guardian Pig Torches. The layout is identical, but the Rundown Houses are replaced with Pig Torches.

Miner's Camp


You can see a Skeleton with a Miner Hat and an Opulent Pickaxe beside a base camp. Inside the base, there is a Shadow Manipulator and a Tent. Other food source like Berry Bushes, Bee Boxes, stone walls, wooden flooring, and Crock Pots can be found too.

Queens' Gathering


A Queen's Gathering is a ring of Tier 3 Spider Dens surrounding a single one in a Forest with trees all around it. It has a great chance to make a Spider Queen appear. It can be found in Adventure and Survival Mode.

Reed Field Trap


A field of Reeds that conceals a large number of Tentacles surrounding it as well as inside of it. It can be found in Survival Mode.

Spider Trap


There is a Spider Warrior sleeping on a Carpeted Flooring. If you hit the spider, 3 extra Spider Warriors will spawn around you. Sometimes there are multiple sleeping spiders.

TallFort


A Tallfort features a patch of rocky terrain with numerous Boulders and Tallbird nests. It can be found in Survival Mode.
