SCROOMS Instruments & Areas
Index hub for catch tools, Resonance bands, controls, and every major zone on the route.
SCROOMS Instruments & Areas Hub
This hub is the index for gear, geography, and input basics in SCROOMS. Instruments define which Hz bands you can tame; areas define which Scrooms, vendors, and quests you will meet; controls keep the hotbar honest. Dive into the dedicated subpages when you need full tables:
- Instruments Index — shop prices, quest rewards, Resonance I–X, family tags, Crescendo / level 250 context
- Areas Index — Songkeeper’s Grove through Bluestone Caverns, Undergarden, and Crescendo Valley
- Controls — hotbar, Index key 3, equip flow, Pay Respects (E), Ocarina songs, catch loop
For spend priority, pair this hub with the Tier List. For step-by-step play, use Guides and Getting Started.
Instruments at a glance
SCROOMS catch tools are not cosmetic skins. Each card exposes stats such as Precision, Luck, Tension, Harmony, Tune Speed, and a Resonance tier tied to frequency ranges. Rough early ladder:
| Instrument | Typical access | Reported cost | Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wooden Lute | Leo in Songkeeper’s Grove | Free | Tutorial Resonance I starter |
| Tamer’s Guitar | Grove vendor | 100 Chimes | First must-buy |
| Adventurer’s Tambourine | Grove vendor | 750 Chimes | Percussion coverage |
| Violin of Pilgrimage | Grove vendor | 4,500 Chimes | Mid Grove strings |
| Forest Spirit’s Lyre | Fenna quest | Offering (~5,000) | Verdant mid Grove crown |
| Deepchord | Bluestone / Pell | 16,000 Chimes | Mid-high Resonance + Runic |
| Sorin’s Last Verse | Respite quest / Ico | ~28,000 Chimes | Regional quest crown |
| Magus’ Requiem | Iblis quest | Quest reward | Sanctum quest crown |
| Ballad of Three Reigns | Late / Tall Trees gates | 160,000 Chimes | Prestige endgame board |
| Mothwing | Endgame board | ~750,000 Chimes | Mothdust + Moth Forage |
| Ocarina | Halden’s five statues | Quest | Melody utility, not catching |
Crescendo Valley reworked Wind / Strings / Percussion / Keys minigames and raised the level cap to 250, with eight or more new instruments layered onto this ladder. Always confirm live prices in-game; community sheets drift after patches. Detailed unlocks: Forest Spirit’s Lyre, Sorin’s Last Verse, Magus’ Requiem, Mothwing.
Areas at a glance
Progression is geographic as much as numerical:
- Songkeeper’s Grove — Leo, Wooden Lute, Julian/Jane selling, Halden statues, early shop board.
- Songtreads / race goals — around level 25 with Shax race context before deeper caverns feel intended.
- Bluestone Caverns — mid-game vendors, Deepchord path, denser Hz targets.
- Undergarden — update zone with cooking (Coinleaf, Glintberry, Quickthistle), new Scrooms, tougher Resonance.
- Crescendo Valley — floor open from level 1 beside Grove; ascent earned; dailies / Vaso; level 250.
- Ivory Plains — next major teaser on the calendar (Updates).
Public servers remain online co-op with a 15 player cap, so popular farming corners in Grove, Undergarden, or Crescendo terraces can feel busy during peak hours.
How to use the subpages
- Planning a purchase? Open Instruments, note Resonance, then confirm rank on Instruments Tier List.
- Lost after a patch? Open Areas, then read Undergarden or Crescendo Valley notes.
- Fighting the UI? Open Controls for Index, Pay Respects, and equip steps.
- Farming value? Cross-check mutation multipliers on Mutations Tier List before selling Resonant or Mothdust trophies.
- Finding NPCs? Use NPC Locations.
Economy reminders tied to the index
Chimes are soft currency. Melodic, Harmonic, and Resonant variants multiply sell price; mutation labels (Wooden, Mossy, Runic, Metallic, Charged, Verdant, Mothdust, and others) further differentiate trophies. Cooking teas from Undergarden ingredients support longer farm sessions — see Cooking Recipes.
There are no active promo codes as of mid-November 2026 (Codes Hub). Do not expect a code to skip the instrument ladder.

This index stays factual and compact on purpose: the child pages hold the long tables. When a new shop board ships, we update instruments first, then area routes, then tier ranks.
