But to get them to move in, you need to build a \"habitable room\" and place their favorite items inside. The survival-crafting game doesn't exactly tell you what a habitable room is. If you're like me, you've probably already tried a combination of objects. There's a certain set of requirements you'll need to meet when you're building your room, though, and once you have the right furniture and design, the merchant will spawn almost instantly. Table of contentsHabitable room requirements in Core KeeperAll Core Keeper merchants who can live in your baseHow to get a merchant to move into your base Habitable room requirements in Core Keeper A habitable room must have the following components before a merchant will move in: Walls Door Flooring A bed Torches (or other lighting) The merchant's spawn item I've found that both wood and stone floors and walls will work, but I opted for wood in my own builds since it's an easier material to come across than other options. It doesn't need to be big, either; the rooms I have are five-by-six spaces, counting the walls. You could go even smaller if you'd like. Don't forget to line your room with walls instead of just carving out a space in the rock, though. Merchants prefer a well-insulated room, after all. All Core Keeper merchants who can live in your base There are a total of five merchants you can invite to stay in your base in Core Keeper. You'll find many of these merchants after defeating a boss; the Bearded Merchant, for example, spawns after taking down Glurch the Abominous Mass. While he stays close to the area after the fight, you can get him to spawn in your base by placing the Slime Oil item you'll receive after defeating Glurch. Here are all the merchants who can live in your boss and how to summon them.

Table of contentsHabitable room requirements in Core KeeperAll Core Keeper merchants who can live in your baseHow to get a merchant to move into your base Habitable room requirements in Core Keeper A habitable room must have the following components before a merchant will move in: Walls Door Flooring A bed Torches (or other lighting) The merchant's spawn item I've found that both wood and stone floors and walls will work, but I opted for wood in my own builds since it's an easier material to come across than other options. It doesn't need to be big, either; the rooms I have are five-by-six spaces, counting the walls. You could go even smaller if you'd like. Don't forget to line your room with walls instead of just carving out a space in the rock, though. Merchants prefer a well-insulated room, after all. All Core Keeper merchants who can live in your base There are a total of five merchants you can invite to stay in your base in Core Keeper. You'll find many of these merchants after defeating a boss; the Bearded Merchant, for example, spawns after taking down Glurch the Abominous Mass. While he stays close to the area after the fight, you can get him to spawn in your base by placing the Slime Oil item you'll receive after defeating Glurch. Here are all the merchants who can live in your boss and how to summon them.
