Active Volcano

Hunters start out at the base of the mountain, and may journey through the molten center. After emerging from the caves, they can begin their perilous ascent to the peak. Withering heat demands that hunters use cool drinks if they wish to venture into this land. Hunters should also be wary of strange rocks which can explode violently when damaged. Because there is little vegetation to be found, the volcano is home to only the heartiest of creatures.

Common Minions: Bullfango, Ioprey, Melynx, Vespoid, Apceros, Remobra

Common Bosses: Iodrome, Basarios, Rajang, Gravios, Black Gravios, Rathalos, Azure Rathalos

Area 1
A larger canyon with very high, rocky walls. The narrow corridors of this area are usually blocked by various minions. Hunters can choose to continue exploring the foothills or enter the volcanic cavern from here.

Area 2
A large, open area, just as rocky as Area 1. Various minions usually litter this area.

Area 3
Another open area very similar to Area 2, bullfango and Ioprey like to hang out here.

Area 4
A giant, volcanic cavern, with active magma flows to the East and West. Cool Drinks are required.Both large wyverns and minions can be found here as well as exits to Areas 1, 2, 5, and 6.

Area 5
A smaller volcanic cavern, with a magma flow to the East, Ioprey and Bullfango can be found here frequently, while larger wyverns may occasionally venture here.

Area 6
A narrow, winding path through a large lava pool. There is a stone circle in the center of the area where Power Seeds may be gathered, but large wyverns and other minions wander this area.

Area 7
A fiery walkway around a large lava pool. The erupting summit can be seen in the distance. A stone circle in the North can sometimes have Power Seeds in it while Ioprey and the large wyverns may wait here to guard the only path to the peak.

Area 8
The infernal peak of the volcano, with a view into the main vent. A giant fire wall rises into the night sky. The hunters must ascend the steep, craggy slope to reach the rim. At the furthest point, Powderstones may be acquired, which must be carried all the way back to base.
