Different areas in CryoFall have old ruins. These ruins are the best place to find rare components and certain resources. It is always a good idea to explore them occasionally, especially if you have the necessary gear. Warning: These places are polluted by Radiation Poisoning. That is why they are also called radtowns. Vehicles like hoverboard are slowed down when exposed to radiation. So you have to leave them outside.
The difficulty of ruins ranges from T1 (tier 1), which can be explored by anyone, to T3, which requires the best equipment and meds in CryoFall. Exploring ruins is the only way to obtain certain rare items. The chance to find those items depends on the difficulty of the ruins, and the most valuable items can be found only in T3 ruins.
There is a quest that requires players to visit at least a T1 ruin: Explore Old Ruins.
