💡 Strategy

Pro Tip: The Island Obelisk is essential for maximizing Ginger Island farming and volcano dungeon runs — build it as soon as you can gather Dragon Teeth and Bananas.

Bananas grow from Banana Saplings on Ginger Island — plant them early to prepare for this obelisk.
Dragon Teeth can be farmed in the Volcano Dungeon from Lava Lurks or found in rare treasure chests.
Pair the Island Obelisk with the Desert Obelisk for the most useful late-game fast-travel combo.
