Underground Lava Lake/Guide
| This page was last updated for (v1.2.2). |
Dungeon Mechanics
Similar to the last dungeon, the 
Underground Lava Lake harkens back to base game combat, it is a relatively simple dungeon that can is designed to be completed in the early game of the expansion. This means the dungeon does not require advanced tactics, high levels, or complete optimization. Each monster is pulled directly from the associated 
Slayer Area, and as the player has been forced to fight each of these monsters before, they should be well versed in their dangers.
Intimidation
Just like every other monster in the 
, each enemy in the Underground Lava Lake has a passive effect that reduces the player's Damage Reduction. When in combat with 
Trogark, the player's base damage reduction is reduced by 20%, before any modifiers from the Combat Triangle.
Manual Clear
Manually clearing the Underground Lava Lake is a good way to get to the next dungeon, 
Lightning Region, as soon as possible.
Changing equipment sets to be able to fight each monster with Combat Triangle advantage can lower the required levels, especially 
Hitpoints required to clear the dungeon efficiently. The player should already have setups available from clearing each monster in the 
Lava Lake, but they will look similar to the following 
Magic build.
Rewards
Completing this dungeon unlocks the Lightning Region dungeon.
Stats and Buffs
This guide was written up to make the dungeon easily clearable fresh into Throne of the Herald Expansion.
It is idleable with the stats and gear provided.
You'll need at least 1,110 Hitpoints and 67% Damage Reduction to safely idle this dungeon.
Stats
Used for this guide:
Level 100
Level 100
Level 100

Buffs
- Prayer:
Battleheart & 
Augury - Potion:
Damage Reduction Potion IV - Point of Interest:
The Academia Arcanum
Summoning
Yak and 
Dragon - Avoids damage from burns inflicted by enemies, particularly useful for Trogark as it nullifies their burn lifesteal passive effect and reduces the maximum damage possible from the Unleashed Power special attack.
Spells
There are three Archaic Spells unlocked by completing 
Ancient Sanctuary. With Level 100 we can only use 
Poison Pods for now. This will require you to have 
Level 112 though. If this has not yet been obtained, just use 
Fire Surge for now.
Using curses and auroras, unsurprisingly, increases your damage done:
Equipment & Agility
Much like other Agility tables, follow this list along until you can't build the next obstacle.
Building Waterfall Crossing will require at least Level 104. Otherwise use Freezing Rafting
