Quick answer: Catch Lava Clams at (-5102, 162, -1177) to obtain Sulfur, Obsidian, and Igneous Pearls. Take these pearls to the Crab Miners in the Scoria Reach Mines at (-4972, 145, -1577) to exchange them for the corresponding Fragments, then place each Fragment in its specific pillar location around the island.
In the Scoria Reach update for Fisch, activating the Igneous Altar requires finding three specific items: the Sulfur Fragment, Obsidian Fragment, and Infernal Fragment. Unlike standard loot, these items cannot be fished directly from the open water. Instead, they require a multi-step process involving specific bait, distinct fishing locations, and interactions with NPCs in the island’s mines.
Obtaining these fragments serves as a prerequisite for powering up the pillars scattered across Scoria Reach, which ultimately allows players to obtain the Igneous Rupturer Rod.

Catching Pearls for trade
The Crab Miners who provide the fragments do not accept standard currency. You must trade specific pearls found within Lava Clams to receive the corresponding fragment. These clams are located in an exclusive lava pool opposite Ashbrook Town.
- Sulfur Pearl: Trades for the Sulfur Fragment.
- Obsidian Pearl: Trades for the Obsidian Fragment.
- Igneous Pearl: Trades for the Infernal Fragment.
The Igneous Pearl is an Exotic rarity item, making the Infernal Fragment significantly harder to acquire than the others.

Once you possess the necessary pearls, you must locate the Crab Miners to initiate the trade.

Fragment Pillar locations
After acquiring the fragments, you must insert them into specific pillars located around Scoria Reach to progress the quest. Each fragment corresponds to a unique pillar location.
Sulfur Fragment Pillar
The Sulfur Pillar is located at (-5180, 158, -1192). It stands opposite the lava pool near Ashbrook Town, making it the most accessible of the three.
Obsidian Fragment Pillar
To find the Obsidian Pillar, head to the right side of the Scoria Volcano. Look for a secluded cave entrance. The pillar is located inside this cave at (-5643, 163, -1693).
Infernal Fragment Pillar
The Infernal Pillar is situated at the top of the mountain at (-5604, 262, -1736). Follow the path leading up the right side of the Volcano to reach this elevation.

Once all fragments are placed and the 11 required pearls are deposited at the Igneous Altar, the quest progresses, allowing access to the Igneous Rupturer Rod.
