However, time has taken its toll and now it is an ashen expanse populated by only the most volatile and hardy creatures. It is primarily used as a source for raw materials and sending unwanted Enemies of the Corporation for slave labour. While not an extremely fun environment to be in, it is home to a plethora of artifacts and ruins open to your exploration and exploitation. | ||

Lavaland, by nature, is not a safe place. In fact, it's extremely inhospitable and full of creatures that want to kill, eat, or kill and eat you. Whether it's a gruesome fate from a not-so-friendly Lava Dragon or you manage to accidentally take a bath in molten rock, one wrong step and you're toast. This page serves as a guide to traversing this hellish landscape and maybe even coming out alive on the other end.
Lavaland has a Long History and was actually a thriving planet long ago. However, time has taken its toll and now it is an ashen expanse populated by only the most volatile and hardy creatures. It is primarily used as a source for raw materials and sending unwanted Enemies of the Corporation for slave labour. While not an extremely fun environment to be in, it is home to a plethora of artifacts and ruins open to your exploration and exploitation.
Inhabitants
While covered in lava and buffeted on the hourly by Ash Storms, many sentient creatures still call Lavaland home. Some of them do not wish to be on Lavaland as they were trapped there on accident and others evolved to thrive in the landscape. Many of these inhabitants are willing to trade and work with you for the betterment of each party. Sometimes they just want to kill you. Whatever interaction you have with them, it certainly will be interesting.

A vile tendril of corruption, originating deep underground. Terrible monsters are pouring out of it. | Necropolis tendrils spawn a random assortment of lavaland monsters including: watchers, goliaths, and legion. After killing the tendril, it will spawn a necropolis chest containing a random piece of loot, and will break into a deadly, inescapable chasm; so watch your step! |
Tunnel |
A twisted, dark passage to the underground. | Tunnel nests house fauna like goliaths and goldgrubs. They will be triggered if they are stepped across. May spawn glass or iron as well. |

Gubbuck |
A small, non-aggressive creature that can be found roaming lavaland for food. | Similar to Gutlunch, but smaller and more colorful. |

Abandoned Minebot |
A standard issue Nanotrasen mining drone. This one does not look friendly. | During it's presence on Lavaland, Nanotrasen has abandoned a lot of old mining machinery. Minebots specifically are known to have trouble processing threats after prolonged contact with ash, choosing to attack mining teams instead of fauna. It is equipped with a kinetic accelerator and a drill, making it a very deadly threat. After one is destroyed, you may be able to salvage it's components, like the aforementioned drill, as well as kinetic accelerator upgrades. It will also drop some of the ore it has collected. |

Colossus leaves two of following things behind: an anomalous crystal with various effects, divine vocal cords or eyes of god
The eyes of god are an organ that replaces your eyes. Once implanted, they grant you thermal vision and can be used by HUD button in top left. When active, they slowly take damage while giving you effects of xray vision and letting you see invisible things. Once they reach certain damage treshholds, both eyes shatter individually. When eyes are not active, they slowly regenerate. The divine vocal cords are an organ that can be transplanted into your mouth via surgery. Once implanted they can be used via the HUD button up in the top left or by prefixing your message with ":~". For information on voice of god, go to here The anomalous crystal has many different effects and many different triggers to these effects. Triggers include, talking near it, bumping it, attacking it with a blunt object, attacking it with a fire based weapon such as a welder, clicking it with an empty hand, shooting it with: ballistics, energy weapons (tasers and disablers) and lasers. Effects include, reviving corpses as shadow people, terraforming the room around it, firing out random projectiles, turning the activator into a clown, force possessing the nearest mindless simple mob (if no such simple mobs are present you will possess a mouse), refreshing items nearby to the state they were at the start of the round.

Flora
Environmental Dangers
Even if you avoid the various denizens and creatures of the wastes, the environment can kill you very easily. An unprepared crewmember or ash walker can easily perish in the harsh landscape.
Ash Storms
An eerie moan rises on the wind. Sheets of burning ash blacken the horizon. Seek shelter.
Due to the planets scalding hot climate and high winds, clouds of boiling ash is kicked up into the air. These clouds turn into massive storms that blanket the landscape a heavy layer of ash that can easily kill people. Only the sturdiest of equipment and exosuits can withstand an Ash Storm and it is very important to seek shelter under a roof during one.
Ash storms will subside after about a minute and after that, it is safe to go outside.
Atmosphere
Lavaland's atmosphere is not safe for all beings. It is a low pressure, low oxygen, scorchingly hot environment and you will require internals along with temperature-resistant clothing, such as an explorer suit or MODsuit, to traverse it. Some beings, like Ash Walkers can live in this dangerous environment without the use of external equipment.
Chasms
There are great big pits on the surface of Lavaland that go down for miles. You can fly or hop over them with wormhole jaunters and jump boots. If you fall into one you won't be coming back. This includes items and any mobs that are thrown into it. Chasms will open up shortly after a tendril is killed. It can also be found naturally forming canyons in some parts of lavaland..
Lava
The floor is literally lava in many places. Stepping on it will immediately ignite you and deal heavy burn damage, quickly killing if stood on for too long. Can only be traversed with mechs, lava boats, or while under the effect of items or abilities that give lava immunity. Fire resistance alone isn't enough to protect from the burn damage.
Liquid Plasma
Similar to lava, in a sense that it's everywhere and it's extremely hot. Will set any passers on fire, as well as dealing burn and toxin damage. Plasmamen and IPCs take greatly reduced damage. You can collect it with a beaker.
Lavaland Loot
The positive tradeoff to traversing the terrible environment of lavaland is the great treasures that lie within it
Necropolis Chests
Upon killing a giant tendril, a necropolis chest will spawn which will contain one of 26 sets of interesting items. While many of the items are mediocre, there is a rare chance of spawning something truly unique and powerful. Miners should measure the tradeoffs of killing important tendrils such as the legion tendrils (which are used for farming legion cores) and obtaining the necropolis chests. Be wary! Very soon after defeating a tendril, the immediate area around it will collapse into a chasm.
