Climbing in the volcano

I’ll retract most of this post. It was written in a fit of rage.

I will say you guys need to seriously reconsider your design of the volcano area. There are several spots where if you get down, you can’t get back up because it becomes impossible to climb due to anything above ‘very hot’ you take damage.

So essentially you become stuck, not because you were necessarily unprepared, but because the area is very poorly designed considering how some mechanics work, namely climbing. This needs to be adjusted.

I should still be able to climb if I’m very or extremely hot. Heat stroke, I can understand… But anything below that… There’s no excuse why I shouldn’t be able to pull myself up out of a hot mess so to speak.

You also need to consider working on some spawn nodes for gold other than just the volcano, there are several for silver. Desert, jungle, ect… There need to be more for gold since it’s a very integral part of end game gear.

Did drinking water and eating ice not help at all? I remember when I first climbed up to get the weapon recipie I had to eat a load of ice and water to cool down and continued to do it while I was climbing.

Nope. Died because I got stuck with not path up and ran out of water. Had 3 skins couldn’t drink enough to get to a point where I wasn’t taking damage to climb.

Taking actual damage and not being able to climb, I understand. Get shot with an arrow, hit the spikes on top of a wall, ect… Fine by me. But not being able to climb due to temperature effects is fuсking lame.
