Gameplay Tips & Strategies
Grinding Efficiency
Magma is exceptional for grinding due to its high DPS and area damage. Spam Z and V moves to create damaging puddles that quickly eliminate NPCs. The fruit's low mastery requirements make it accessible even for newer players.
Sea Event Dominance
With water walking ability, Magma users can easily hunt Sea Beasts and participate in Ship Raids. The fruit's high damage output makes it one of the best choices for these activities.
Boss Fighting
Use Magma's area denial capabilities to control space during boss fights. The lingering puddles deal consistent damage while you focus on evasion and positioning.
Combo Execution
While not ideal for high-level PvP, Magma can be effective in combat with proper positioning. Use F move to create space, then follow up with Z and X attacks. The V move is excellent for breaking out of enemy combos.
Awakening Priority
Focus on awakening at least one move first to unlock water walking. Then prioritize the moves you use most frequently for grinding. The full awakening provides the most significant power spike.
Beast Ride Glitch Utilization
Use the Beast Ride glitch (jump and switch to another item) to fling yourself great distances. This is particularly useful for hunting Sea Beasts as it allows you to sky camp above them while using gravity-affected moves.
Trivia & Special Interactions

The reworked, unawakened version of Magma was created by Kio (@LegendOfKio on X), who played an important role in remaking the entire fruit in Update 17.3.
Boat Interaction
If a boat collides with a magma puddle, it will immediately stop. If the Magma user stands close to the boat, it will move the player as well.
NPC Usage
The Magma Admiral and Lava Pirates use the old unawakened version of Magma, while Elite Pirates' Deandre uses the new awakened version.
Sound Design
Awakened Magma's Beast Ride move has the same sound effect as a Sea Beast when spawning or using its deadly roar skill.
Range Capabilities
Awakened Magma's Z move (Magma Shower) has incredible range, with projectiles that don't despawn even at 2500+ meters.
Puddle Mechanics
Magma puddles reappear and disappear faster when the player is holding a move, allowing for strategic placement during combat.
