The Vullux Den is a limited run Delve associated with the Mining Site S and containing many of its creatures as potential enemies. It was introduced on September 1, 2021.
Upon completion of this Delve, a player earns a Vullux baby. This egg can be claimed from the main Delving page if the player has at least one Baby creature slot available and will be available indefinitely until it has been claimed.

Strategy
Scrap Grind
This strategy is for collecting Scraps that are currently not available in any of Regular Delves. Since players cannot retry Limited Run Delves after clearing, careful HP management is essential.
- Tagalong: None
- Equipment: Igniter 1K + Researcher Uniform
- Add-On: None
- Ammo: Dehydrator/Scaleshredder
Even though Vullux Den is a Level 1 Delve, the available terrains are not helpful for the 1 HP strategy utilized in other limited delves, Cassidice Nest and Drakilin Hideaway. Take Igniter 1K to deal with Fungusmonger, as well as Trilopede should you have no choice but to encounter one; have some Dehydrator/Scaleshredder ready for Selm. Why Igniter 1K over Electro-Arc Rifle? While Fungus and Selm are weak to Electric, Vullux is also weak to it, thus not recommended in order to help prevent clearing the delve prematurely due to string of bad luck.
Tagalongs have been tested for viability in this delve. Due to their unpredictable natures, close shaves were experienced even when starting with 1 HP, therefore taking a tagalong is not advised here.
16 HP will be enough to survive the first Fungusmonger, 26 HP if seeking out Selm. Use normal attacks against Fungusmonger, and normal attack + ammo against Selm. Heal in second room with Orange Mushroom only if searching specifically for Fungusmongers and the HP is below 10. If hunting for Selms, hope the first and second room offer examine points that include Bubbling Pond.
Annoy Dr. Chanti Day
This is a risky alternative scrap grind strategy, especially for anyone with very high Rank (more HP). Only attempt if feeling burned out (be it from the necessity of having low but not 1 HP and/or frustrated with no Scrap drop) and all out of Snacks as a result of throwing all of them to this or another Limited Run Delve to no avail. With this being a Level 1 Delve, the chance of accidentally clearing this Delve is virtually guaranteed for anyone with high Rank when first room encounter and ambushes across the subsequent rooms do not happen at all.
- Tagalong: None
- Equipment: Umbravolver + Researcher Uniform
- Add-On: None
- Ammo: Scaleshredder
All enemies except the boss resist Umbravolver, so count on them to whittle down HP. Always hit Bubbling Pond whenever possible, otherwise Small Green Glow. If only Orange Mushroom examine point is available, no consume, only take. Optionally use Scaleshredder if Selm's scrap is desired and HP is low (but higher than 25). Heal at Infirmary and repeat.
