:It's also on the priest and monk quests.  I don't think it appears in the normal dungeon in vanilla though.  In SLASH'EM, it occasionally replaces the walls of maze levels (as do iron bars, clouds, lava and ice), and is in a couple versions of Sokoban, as well as the Lawful quest, and possibly some other places.  You can also wish for it in wizard mode, if you want to do tests with it. -[[User:Ion frigate|Ion frigate]] 00:27, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

Lava and boots destruction

The page currently doesn't mention any danger to equipment. As I just found out, stepping onto Lava while wearing a pair of speed boots is not a good idea. The boots (which were greased, btw) spontaneously combusted. It would have been better to enter the Lava barefoot since I had fire resistance.

I'm not sure whether this happens always, and which kind of equipment is in danger, so I add this info here on the talk page, hoping that someone with better knowledge can improve the "Lava" entry.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Psyringe (talkcontribs)

The boots need to be fireproof to prevent them from burning up. --MadDawg2552 19:30, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
Also, you're going to sink unless they're boots of water walking.--Ray Chason 19:37, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Where to find lava

So where do you find Lava before the Endgame if you are not a valkyrie? -Tjr 23:29, March 15, 2010 (UTC)
