Description

The fire_temple quest in Volcanic Depths requires 4.8B combat power and rewards the void_walker adventurer tier (130K combat power each). However, void_walker is the tier needed to make reaching 4.8B feasible — without it, the player is stuck grinding arcane_scholar at 45K each, requiring ~107K units to reach the gate.

This creates a chicken-and-egg progression wall reported as "miserable" by a player.

Cause

The adventurer tier that breaks the wall is locked behind the quest that requires the combat power only that tier can reasonably provide.

Fix

Move void_walker to the lava_flows rewards (the Volcanic Depths entry quest) so players get the tier boost as soon as they enter the zone. Replace it on fire_temple with enhanced resource rewards.

Player Report

"the temple of the flame is pretty miserable to get combat power for"
