Strategy tips
- All ten Ancient Lava deposits in the game are inside the No. 2 Wildlife Sanctuary in Mt. Obsidian. Not ten scattered across the map — ten in one place.
- No Pal drops Ancient Lava and no chest holds it, so there is no route that avoids the sanctuary.
- It is volcanic ground, so bring heat protection as well as a fight plan.
- Plan one clean sweep rather than repeat trips: ten deposits is the whole supply per respawn cycle.
