What to do
Description
Volcanoth is the turtle god in the cave that these primitives worship. It's not really a god. <Hobart rolls his eyes.> But it is tough enough that I'm going to have to devise a new weapon for you from the one functioning boot we have left. I think that the age-old motto of "fight fire with fire" applies here. Plus, I like fire! Let's get some fire glands from Volcanoth's children. That should give me time to modify the rocket boot into something more fitting.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Rocket Boot Boost
You need to get those boots down into the caldera to Hobart Grapplehammer. Now that they're infused with the leftover rockin' powder, they should have enough thrust to get you all the way there on one shot. When you're ready, activate the boots.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Volcanoth!
It took a lot of blood, sweat, and tears, but the Bootzooka, patent-pending, is ready for use! These no-good pygmies have been feeding our people to their "god", Volcanoth, and they're about to unleash it on our town! You have to get into the cave and kill that thing before it's too late!
