Upper Caves or Metro Caves are the caves directly connected to Lower Underrail, far above both Lower Caves and Deep Caverns.

Description

Some wall breaches in Lower Underrail lead to these adjoining caverns. They are inhabited mostly by various wildlife and largely devoid of human life, except the occasional bandit camp here and there. Ruins of old military facilities can be found even in these caverns, despite them not being directly connected to Lower Underrail's systems.

Enemies

All sorts of critters reside in these caverns, and few humans can be occasionally met.

Critters
Rathounds, Rathound Alphas, Pigs, Warthogs, Azuridae, Dogs, Burrower Spawn, Burrowers, Crawlers, Siphoners
Lunatics
Lunatic Gunners (lvl10), Lunatic Scanners
Lurkers
Lurker Smugglers
