Template:PlaceOriginal Molten Crater is a realm in Spyro: Year of the Dragon and in the Reignited Trilogy remaster of the third game. It can be accessed in the Sunrise Spring homeworld after the player collects 10 Dragon Eggs.
Description
This realm is set around a lava filled crater, with its main attraction being the Tiki Lodge that its residents can visit. Unfortunately, Rhynocs have taken over the realm and exiled all the residents. Clay asks Spyro to help get the Lodge back by clearing the way of Rhynocs and meeting Rocky to receive an egg as a reward.
After Sgt. Byrd is released later in the game, he is able to visit the Tiki Lodge, where Shale is playing hide-and-seek with his Tiki friends. He tells Sgt. Byrd that he can become an honorary member by helping him find the heads of all five Tikis. After Sgt. Byrd finds and replaces the heads, Shale gives him an egg as a sign of being an honorary member of the lodge, only to find out it hatches into a baby dragon. Shale then says that its never happened before, and hopes that it isn't a bad omen.
Guide
Eggs
- Get to the Tiki Lodge (Curlie): Meet up with Rocky near the Tiki Lodge entrance.
- Egg By Lava River (Rikki): Along the path, there is a bridge across a lava river. Once you get across, jump across the next lava river and go to the left of the big rock. The egg will be sitting there next to a Bullwhip Rhynoc.
- Replace Idol Heads (Ryan): In this Sgt. Byrd portal, Shale is playing hide-and-seek with his friends in the Tiki Lodge; in this version, the hiders are beheaded and their heads are somehow hidden all over the place. Put the heads back on the five Tikis and Shale will make you an honorary member by giving you an egg. The portal will unlock after completing Sgt. Byrd's Base, so you may have to come back later.
- Sgt. Byrd Blows Up a Wall (Luna): In the same Sgt. Byrd portal, there is a cracked wall to the left of the entrance. Blow it up to find an egg. The portal will unlock after completing Sgt. Byrd's Base, so you may have to come back later.
- Catch the Thief (Moira): In order to access this challenge portal, you will have to pay Moneybags 300 gems. Stoney saw a Yellow Thief with a dragon egg, and advises Spyro to go get it. The Thief can be defeated either by charging into or flaming it.
- Supercharge After the Thief (Kermitt): In the same challenge portal, a Red Thief appears after the Yellow Thief is defeated with another dragon egg. However, he is much faster this time, so Stoney will activate the supercharge panel so you can catch up. Again, defeat the thief either by charging into or flaming it.
Skill Points
- Assemble Tiki Heads: In the Sgt. Byrd portal, if you bring all five of the tiki heads to where Shale is, they'll hop around, and you'll get a skill point.
- Supercharge the Wall: There is a cracked wall with an extra life in the thieves' challenge portal. It is located across the beginning of the supercharge panel and to the left. Charge into it and break the extra life container to get the skill point.
