Notes
* The entrance to the cave and the passage to the artifact is accessible on foot. The path through the cave requires a Grappling Hook and jumping skills to traverse the lava lake, found on the way to the artifact. Taking a
Climbing Pick and a
Zip-Line Anchor with you would also be worth while, specially if you wish to tame one of the high level
Ravager while there and bring it out with you, of course you will need some method of tranquilizing the beast and maybe some
Kibble for the perfect tame.
- It is possible to transport medium sized non-flyer tames in or out using the
Cryopod.
