The Ram Has Woken Up (Guide)- 99 Nights in the Forest Roblox

by

In the depths of the volcanic biome, something terrifying has stirred. A new entity has entered 99 Nights in the Forest: the Ram Monster, a destructive beast with uncontrollable rage.

Even the Deer and Owl won’t dare to cross its path. This guide will break down everything you need to know about the Ram update, from how to trigger its awakening to survival strategies, biome changes, and its connection to the new Cultist King boss battle.

What’s New in the Update

The update that introduced the Ram is one of the largest 99 Nights in the Forest has seen so far.

Here’s a snapshot of the major additions:

  • Ram Monster – a volcanic biome creature that can chase players and even smash through trees.99 Nights in the Forest True Story Explained

  • Cultist King Boss – a full ritual-based boss battle, complete with throne room and unique drops.cultist king 99 Nights in the Forest

  • New Weapons – including the Infernal Crossbow and Cultist King Mace.new weapons 99 nights in the forest

  • Infernal Mammoth – a fire-charged mammoth variant with aggressive auto-aggro.

  • Sacrifice Totems & Ritual Sites – new mechanics that tie into summoning bosses.

  • Volcanic Biome Overhaul – redesigned terrain, new enemies, more chests, and loot.

How to Trigger The Ram’s Awakening

The Ram does not spawn immediately. You’ll know it has entered the game when the global notification appears:

“The Ram has woken up.”

  • It typically spawns after Day 2–5, depending on campfire upgrades and player progress.

  • It roams the Volcanic Biome and will mark itself on the map once active.

  • Unlike the Deer or Owl, the Ram has tree-breaking power, meaning hiding isn’t a reliable strategy.

Ram Monster Behavior

The Ram is less about jump scares and more about raw destruction.

Here’s what to expect:

Feature Details
Spawn Location Volcanic Biome (often near ritual sites)
Movement Charges at players, destroys trees in its path
Threat Level Moderate – not as terrifying as expected, but dangerous if unprepared
Weakness Standard weapons and especially fire-based attacks
Unique Trait Can break terrain elements while chasing

Preparing for the Encounter

To survive (and possibly take down) the Ram, you’ll want to come prepared:

  1. Upgrade Your Campfire – higher tiers provide survival buffs and stronger defenses.

  2. Stock Food – starvation is a real danger during long fights in the volcanic biome.

  3. Carry Flashlights – though less effective than against the Deer, light still helps at night.

  4. Arm Yourself – rifles, crossbows, or the new Infernal Crossbow give you the range needed.

  5. Ammo Crate Crafting – use Cultist Gems from the volcanic biome to ensure you don’t run dry.

The Volcanic Biome Overhaul

The volcanic zone has been completely reworked and is now central to both the Ram and Cultist King content.

Key features include:

  • Infernal Mammoth roaming the area, dropping tusks and meat.

  • Cultist Strongholds filled with enemies, ritual altars, and chest loot.

  • Sacrifice Totems – dropped from cultists, can be used at altars for rituals.

  • New Chests (Red & Blue) with high-tier rewards like the Cultist King Mace.

Cultist King Connection

While the Ram itself is a free-roaming monster, much of this update builds toward the Cultist King boss battle.

  • To summon the Cultist King, you’ll need 4 Cultist Gems, often collected via rituals and cultist drops.

  • The throne room is hidden deep in the volcanic biome.

  • Once summoned, the King enters a full boss battle phase where teamwork, ammo, and food are crucial.

The Ram, in a way, acts as a roaming terror while you prepare for the bigger fight.

Tips for Fighting the Ram

  • Stay Mobile: Since it destroys trees, don’t rely on barricades. Keep moving.

  • Bait and Distract: If playing co-op, have one player kite the Ram while others deal damage.

  • Use Firepower: The Infernal Crossbow is particularly effective here.

  • Time Your Hunts: The Ram often appears at night, so plan your upgrades and food before sunset.

Final Thoughts

The Ram’s Awakening is less about a jump-scare horror moment and more about survival pressure. Its destructive power makes exploration in the volcanic biome more dangerous, especially when combined with cultists and the mammoth.

While some players find its presence a little underwhelming compared to the Deer or Owl, it’s a critical piece of progression leading into the Cultist King boss battle – one of the most ambitious fights added to 99 Nights in the Forest.

If you’re venturing into the volcanic biome, prepare well, or the Ram’s rage will quickly cut your run short.
