How to Activate Ignous Altar Fisch Guide

The Ignous Altar is one of the most important progression systems in Scoria Reach. Activating it unlocks access to late-game content and powerful rewards, but many players get stuck because the altar requires several items in a specific order. If you miss a step, the altar will not activate. Understanding how pearls and fragments work together is the key to finishing this process smoothly. Also check out our Fisch Codes for more rewards!

How to Unlock Ignous Altar

1. Collect Pearls From Lava Clams

The first requirement is gathering special pearls found in Scoria Reach. These pearls mainly come from catching lava clams while fishing in lava pools. Using coal bait improves your chances of catching them.

Each pearl has a dedicated slot on the Ignous Altar. When you approach the altar, you can interact with each socket to see which pearl it needs. You must place every required pearl before moving to the next stage. Regular pearls from other regions may also be required for the lower altar slots, so check your inventory carefully.

2. Place Pearls in the Ignous Altar

Once you have the correct pearls, stand on the marked circle in front of the altar and sacrifice them one by one. Every successful placement lights up a matching symbol on the altar. Do not skip any slots. The altar only progresses when all pearl sockets are filled. After the final pearl is placed, the fragment pillars around the island become active.

3. Gather the Three Required Fragments

You need three fragments from the Scoria Mines:

• Inferno Fragment
• Sulfur Fragment
• Obsidian Fragment

These fragments are earned by giving pearls to mining crabs and waiting for their rewards. Fragment drops are not guaranteed, so you may need multiple attempts.

4. Install Fragments on Island Pillars

Each fragment belongs to a specific pillar:

• Sulfur fragment near the main lava pool
• Inferno fragment along the volcano path
• Obsidian fragment inside a hidden mountain crevice

Travel to each pillar and install the correct fragment. When all three are placed, the altar sequence is complete.

What Happens After Activation

After activating the Ignous Altar, you unlock access to advanced fishing inside the volcano and new progression tied to high-tier gear. This includes the ability to pursue rare catches and purchase powerful rods that are locked behind altar completion.

Activating the Ignous Altar is all about following the correct order: farm pearls, fill every altar slot, collect fragments from the mines, and install them on their pillars. Each step builds on the previous one, and skipping any requirement will stop your progress. Once completed, the altar opens the door to the most rewarding content in Scoria Reach, making the effort well worth it for players aiming to master the area in Fisch.
