How to Find Volcanic Ash in Dark and Darker?

Crafting materials in video games has been around for many years and is a feature in a game that’s not leaving anytime soon. Crafting can be used to make healing objects, new armor, upgrade weapons, or as a trading component to get rare items. Volcanic Ash is a crafting item you can use in order to trade in for gold. It’s a rare item that requires you to defeat an enemy in order to get your hands on it.

You will need to defeat the NPC Wizards (a Potent Spellcaster) to get a Volcanic Ash drop that you can sell to a merchant later. Other than being an item you can sell for money, currently it seems that it has no other purpose. If you want to stock up on Volcanic Ash you need to defeat the wizards by either blasting them with Lightning Strike or Zap. This is the only way to obtain the Volcanic Ash, so defeating them, shouldn’t be an issue since they’re not all that powerful.

Note: Due to the game still being fairly new, there are speculations indicating that the item will be of use in future quests. We suggest you hold onto a couple of Volcanic Ashes in case a quest asks for it.
