Ember Wastes

Levels 90–120

Ash plains, basalt and smoking volcano cones. The glowing lava crusts burn: keep off them.

Region namesEmberdeep Caldera, Cinder Wastes, Ashfall Barrens, Scorch Ashfields…

Watch out

  • Lava crusts burn: standing on one costs 6% of your health every 0.5 s as fire. Fire resistance helps; better, keep off.
  • In volcano craters creatures are 2 levels (and a tenth) stronger.
  • Ash Drifters drift out after dark.
  • The Caldera Drake nests in the craters.
  • Magmaw the Caldera King, the oldest drake, bursts from the ash on the far side of the Wastes.

Tips

  • Ember vents give ember cores, the heart of fire gear.
  • Obsidian and hound fangs make Cinderstride Boots, which also resist fire.
