The Immortals of Aveum purple goop is everywhere and mucks up almost the entirety of Aveum. It damages the player when they step on it, and it is very clearly something that can be destroyed, especially since Jak mutters to himself that he doesn’t think he has the spell yet to deal with it when strolling close it. Here’s how to remove the purple goop in Immortals of Aveum.
How to remove the purple sludge in Immortals of Aveum
To destroy the purple sludge corruption in Immortals of Aveum, you’ll need the Restore ability. You get get the Restore ability as part of the main campaign a few hours in the mission called “The Hand of Sandrakk.” You’ll get this ability near the end of this mission.
Once you get Restore, you’ll be able to deal with these balls of corruption called Lurge. To do this, just go up to the main blob that glows and hold the fire button once the prompt shows up. The main bulb can be hard to find sometimes so a higher vantage point helps. The prompt can be finicky, so be sure to get close and look at it straight on.
Jak will then perform a short spell on and an enemy called leylodons will pop out. Most are small, but a huge one will jump out every so often. Those who track down the Immortals of Aveum purple goop will get experience and access to new paths that are linked to chests, puzzles, or Shroudfanes.
Corruption isn’t directly tied to any one specific trophy or achievement, but it is marked on the map with little tumorous bubbles, as seen in the above picture.
