Is there anything special to do in the volcano? I mean, other than burning your shoes and wasting a bunch of health items?
There's some loot to be had for now but...
14k gold and 1 star metal from the final boss(very hard), phoenix feather(its alright, it just boosts fire spells), 3 pyroplating(nice), tons of harvestable pyromantium, 1 drug formula(bloodshot+ I think), 1 blessed water...

Only one type of enemy gives gold and it's deeper in the volcano.

Generally this will be the last dungeon you complete, it was in my runs at least.

I would describe Mount Firestorm as late midgame or early lategame. Obviously Richard's domain is the real final dungeon, but aside from that the last would either be Clockwork Forest or the Pride domain. The Crystal Caverns also maybe qualifies, although it's comparatively easier. I'd also say the Maid Academy Catacombs are more difficult than Mount Firestorm.

The best thing about phoenix feather is the permanent fire resistance it gives you or the slime.

the last boss of mount firestorm is the hardest non general boss and is less accessible than Brightmane is. Clockwork is much easier, you can cheese the artificer by just reading the securiy book in 1 day. Plus the reward from that quest is more important to rush

If you are going to get through the last volcano region past the phoenix you ideally do it in one go, so you need to he well prepared. Where as you can grind through all other regions day by day

You gain access to Mount Firestorm around the middle of the game, and all you really need to do to take it on is bless some healing items and buy a Liquefy Weapon Coating. That takes a lot less time than hitting Expert Adventurer to unlock Clockwork Forest.

I do Clockwork Forest (and Judgment of Pride) in one day anyway, because I also want my Liquefy Weapon Coating for most of the enemies in both of those. Maid Academy Catacombs is the one I'd describe as more grinding, because killing those enemies can be HP and/or MP intensive.

Waiting until you can take out Dragon Firestorm properly is a choice you can make, I guess. Or you can just SK him.

you can skip most enemies in the catacombs with Shadowcloak 2, ending up fighting only the 4 in the final floor

the rest you fight when the fragments are gone and the fog is gone

you learn bomb I from Desmond

Reading I is from the refugees in the Nephlune underground, you either need 70 trust or kill your way through to free them
Thanks.
To think that I was annoyed at having to read so many books for months and now I'm hoping to find more books just for the sake of this damn improvement ^^

So, Im in the underground of Nephlune, again. After working in the pub for long enough to rise my trust level over 200, taken care to findthe location and all the necessary to find the abducted peoples, and of course, while I was rising my trust level, I went to the drug dealer and got the "If it's free, why not take it" perversion. That mean each time Aura fall in withdrawal, she hurry to get screwed there. Now, I took "The lord phantoms" quest and while I was at it, I went berserker in the underground part where the worshippers are, or rather were, and killed The Hand too. But I see there are two other of them looking like colored pixies, not just the dark figure ones looking like ghosts. One is a prostitute I paid her to fuck with a worshipper, the other is the drug dealer. I didn't kill them, yet, taking a second thought because maybe they are of use for later on. Mostly about the drug dealer I wonder what will happen when Aura fall in withdrawal next time, if I kill him. Apart to fuck her one time a week, the guy can't even sell products resulting from the formulae that I keep selling him. So the question is: Kill him or not kill him?

At the point you're at, the only way to get rid of your addiction is to kill him. Can't take free drugs if there's no one to hand them out.

Whether or not you want to do that is a different issue.

You'll get a lot of corruption from drug use which means more mental changes and more snowballing bad passives and such.

You don't need Shadowcloak to lift the fog, aside from it maybe being useful against the Thrall. Personally I don't bother with it, and just do one fight with the fog on, then kill the Thrall, then lift the fog. But regardless, killing Asmodeus isn't a priority - he's not gating anything except Richard's domain, and the rewards for beating him are otherwise pretty paltry (not even a mana node). I'm killing Asmodeus just a few days before I go into Richard's domain - I want the money from the fights before that. Not to mention that the fragments can actually make the fights easier by giving you tactical advantage.

Humiltas rune can let you bypass the door on the Artificier tower, thus saving on 80 bombs+(3600 golds + 10 pyromantium!), 3 corruption(from using SK) or having to get 80 AGI(which is like 7 more slime fluids worth of upgrades and thus 7 days).

Well I end up just using SK on Asmodeus as I can't get there before day 100 anyhow

*Do you mean more "damage" with or without the drug dealer? Problem is, if i kill him, I wouldn't be able to find another source because I already killed the other in Trademond.

**I thought the same but then, I'm on the lewd path with Roland too, and I was wondering if she'd turn toward him, but then again, Roland is another thing triggered by reaching 0 willpower in the morning. By the way, is there a way to get rid of Roland "curse"? I'm at Roland Adoration 1, so not all the way yet. John should appears in the choice too, since his "fuck scene" should be triggered by 0 willpower at the start of the day

Taking drugs and having sex will give you corruption. Killing the drug dealer will cause you to be in withdrawal for a long time, but once you're out, you're out. Unless you choose to take more drugs.

There is a way to get rid of Roland, at the very least ;)

And yes, John can appear as a sex option at 0 willpower, but there was some passive (IIRC) that made you only want to have sex with bad guys, and he stops being an option.

The problem with using the rune on the tower is then it's locked out for opening Richard's domain, which is happening at a pretty similar time. Solvable with a Power Core, but 3x Blessed Water is more cost effective, and you get the full HP/MP restore from the SK, too. Not to mention, I want to back attack the Thunder Golem anyway.
