Hello! I was part of that big recent influx of new players trying the game, and I've been trying to make sure I'm not one of the ones who give up

I'm trying out adventure mode now and a local villager gave me a cave with a monster that needs killing, and marked on my map where the cave is. Now the mark is on my map so when I head to the general area that's it. I can't find the cave, and I'm afraid it's going to turn out being some tiny little > symbol I've run over too many times.

I've wasted three days food supply just trying to find it.

To my specific question:
How do I find caves, and is there a way to get even more specific direction? I understand a quest marker is probably out of the question.

If the location is on the map, it should get listed on the top left side of your screen.

The closest locations are shown there, together with the direction they are in.

Something like NNW tells you that the site is mostly to the north and a bit to the west. Keep following those compass directions until it changes to ***. Then you should be directly on top of the site.

This will only work if the site is know. Often travellers like scholars and poets have some knowledge about sites. You might also accidentally stumble on one, at which point it will get listed too in the quest log.

Goodluck on your adventures.

Once you're at the site, the entrance is located in a small hill. Usually there's a small entry on the side somewhere (not necessarily on ground level.)

-wrong thread, sorry-

I can't recall if caves are one of the ones that prevent fast travel, but if they are that means you're very close
