Reaching the Molten
A molten layer below the mines, its name pointing to the heat down here. Deeper water pays noticeably more per bucket now, so a single good run through Molten can out-earn several shallow runs.
By Molten, deep water out-earns the surface by a wide margin, so patience pays: one clean run banks more Tokens than several shallow ones. If you are close to finishing the Skill Tree, this is a good depth to lock in the Fully Trained badge before the final push.
