The Floor Is Lava? is an adventure in Tarnished Treetop. Upon beginning the adventure, rockvine fruits around the adventure area may be kicked to produce spore clusters that fall to the ground for gathering.

Getting there

Search YouTube for videos related to The Floor Is Lava.

The starting point is southwest of

 Wanderer's Waypoint — , on the surface level. Jump down to the ground to the southwest from Wanderer's Waypoint and enter a small cave entrance by some Mushroom enemies to find the adventure.

Mechanics

The floor is covered with clouds that inflict Corrosive Spores, which damage the player and place you in combat, slowing you, though while standing on a spore cluster you will not receive Corrosive Spore stacks. Avoiding the clouds, and thus the slow, will substantially improve navigation time. Players must go to each flower and interact with it to knock the spore cluster out of it onto the ground. Do not remain on the ground for too long to avoid getting damaged and put into combat. Picking up spore clusters performs a large vertical jump and gives you credit towards the adventure goal.

The adventure will end either if all spores have been gathered, if the player takes lethal damage, or if the timer runs out.

Masteries

Optional

  Bouncing Mushrooms (Itzel Lore Level 1) — Recommended. Mushrooms can be used to navigate through the room quickly, to get out of the Corrosive Spores, and to collect spores.

  Blazing Speed Mushrooms (Itzel Lore Level 3) — Speed Boost Mushrooms are located on the course for a speed boost, and will help you traverse the room significantly faster as they can be found in multiple places around the cave.

Skills

All player skills are locked during this Adventure as you're only required to interact with the Rockvine Fruits and Spore Clusters.
