Gold Volcano/Paradox

Gold Volcano is a location in Monster Girl Quest: Paradox

Overview
Located west of Grangold, this volcano is famous for being where one of the 4 elemental spirits,Salamander, lives. If you wish to meet her, you must first traverse the volcano itself. Lava Girls wait for a single misstep, and Demon Lamias and Demon Scyllas also roam around. If you're truly unlucky, you might encounter the Dragon Girl, as she looks for dinner. Lastly, you might run into Basilisks, all with the power to turn you to stone. Granberia will be fought here as a Boss after defeating Salamander and making a contract, but only on Ilias route.

This place is also revisited in the Collaboration Scenario after Lauratt was told by Succubus Witch to make a pact with Salamander. Salamander tests Lauratt to a fight and when the latter comes out victorious, she accepts to make a pact with him to amplify the power of his runes. Fulbeua then appears to give out her plans to the heroes. This place now is infested with Tiger Girl, Vampires and Youkis.

Strategy
Most tiles in this area are lava floors, which burn all party members for a small amount of damage each step. Individually, this damage is insignificant, but walking long distances as you need to do in this cave can leave the party vulnerable to battles. It is recommended to bring party members capable of using Mass Heal or Mass Mega Heal, and mana restoration if needed, before tackling this dungeon.

The enemies in this area are quite strong in stats and resistances and can pose a legitimate threat in higher difficulties. However, all of them are vulnerable to status conditions which may be inflicted easily, trance in particular. Bringing party members capable of support will enable you to stunlock the enemies and deal with them with very little risk of defeat.
