|Use it for butchering the wildlife (hit while on harm intent). It's as strong against mobs as a pickaxe, but you can't mine with it. You can store it in your boots or proto-kinetic accelerator to save space, but remember to alt-click the boots to draw the knife back out.

Lavaland is filled with a variety of bloodthirsty alien lifeforms populating the caverns, walking just fine over the ponds and puddles of lava. Fortunately, you can fight them whilst taking minimal damage, if you have the know-how.

Useful items can be harvested from these creatures' corpses should you triumph; butcher them with a knife by attacking the corpse on Harm intent and the goods will spill out!

*The Ore redemption machine can be unbolted and put on the mining shuttle then re-bolted for quick access. This saves you from taking the shuttle all the way back to the station just to dump your ore before going back.

*The pressure on lava land is actually harmless and is just enough for your Proto-kinetic Accelerator to do its maximum damage. The reason you have a suit is so you can have access to an oxygen tank and some reliable amour against the hostilities of lava land. But do know, the explorer suit does not work in space on the station Z level, but you can always buy a miner's hardsuit from the miner vendor machine for 2000 points, which will work in space.

*It is a very bad idea to mine with 2 PKAs on harm intent. If you were to come across a gibonite you would hit it twice and it will immediately detonate, likely within the range of killing you. Hope you have a good mining medic.

A traitorous miner has a lot of advantages. The treasures on lavaland are among the most powerful and dangerous of any jobs. Certain minerals you'll find have more "specialized" uses - uranium structures will irradiate people, plasma can start fires, gibtonite goes boom. Robotics are generally willing to make you a mech, which you can use instead of fighting fauna to murder people on station. Megafauna and tendril treasures can be more powerful than even your uplink. In addition, lavaland is isolated, hard to get to, dangerous, and as expansive as you're willing to dig out. There is plenty of room to fight a guerilla war against the ones foolish enough to pursue you. However, you also have the weaknesses of being suspicious when on station, and the best loot is dangerous to obtain and/or time consuming.
