Guide: Corrupted Dungeons



Corrupted Dungeons offer a unique experience in Albion Online. As one player fights their way through hallways of demonic enemies to face off against a final boss, other players try to invade, hoping to emerge triumphant in a one-on-one encounter and make off with valuable loot. Invaded players are presented with a choice of how to banish their foe: destroying Demonic Shards in the dungeon, or facing off in a deadly duel.

Coming in three difficulty levels – Hunter, Stalker, and Slayer – they’re equally appealing to new players learning the ropes of combat, and fearless veterans on the hunt for loot. So if you haven’t tried out a Corrupted Dungeon yet, check out our guide to learn all about them, and then dive in to experience the challenge:

How and when did you get into creating Albion Online content?

Growing up, I always dreamed of becoming a content creator. While studying medicine, I felt a void in my daily life. I decided to try and fill it by creating content for Albion, a game I had already been playing for four years. What started as a hobby quickly became a passion. Now, I not only love the game, but I enjoy the process of content creation even more!

Creator Spotlight: Nangoroth

Creator Spotlight is a series where we shine a light on Albion Online’s dedicated Content Creators by sharing their stories, unique perspectives, and favorite moments. Get to know them and, if you’re intrigued, follow their channels for more!



[h3]Nangoroth[/h3]What is the main content you create on Twitch/YouTube?

I love discovering the many ways to experience Albion, with a strong emphasis on PvP, ranging from intense 1v1 duels to coordinated ZvZ battles. I enjoy playing many roles, whether that’s supporting as a healer, shielding the good guys as a rootbound, holding the bad guys off as a tank, or dishing out damage when needed. For me, it’s about constantly learning, improving, and growing alongside friends. One of my favorite parts of streaming is sharing that journey with Twitch chat – teaching, learning, and supporting each other – because I truly believe we’re all stronger when we grow together.

How and when did you get into creating Albion Online content?

I used to stream League of Legends years ago, but for a long time I didn’t find another game that inspired me to create, so I took a long break from Twitch. Then I discovered Albion last fall and immediately fell in love with its mix of challenge, freedom, and community. As I played more, I realized I wanted to share that experience with my old Twitch community and meet new people who felt the same way.

Do you have a favorite video of yours that you think everyone should have seen? Let us know why it's special!

My most recent video really feels like “me” as a creator. It’s a Corrupted Dungeon run using an off-meta 1h Nature Staff build – not to heal, but to brawl. It’s fast clears, intense PvP, and a little chaos all rolled into one. I love it because it shows what I enjoy most about Albion: trying new things, having fun, and proving you don’t need to stick to popular builds to have exciting, rewarding experiences.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
Do you have any new content in the making that you would like to tease?

I’m working on more short-form videos that capture my favorite moments from streams: incredible loot, clutch small-scale plays, or even laughing at my own instant defeats. They’ll be quick, fun bursts of both the exciting and lighthearted sides of Albion.

What advice would you give other players who are considering becoming Albion Online content creators?

The best advice I can give is to truly be yourself. Albion has such a warm, welcoming community, and when you share the kind of content you genuinely enjoy, people connect with that. Don’t worry about being perfect, focus on having fun, learning, and letting your personality shine. Streaming Albion has been one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had, and I love seeing new creators join in and share their own journeys.
