How Lava Frog compares
Neighbors by income in Volcano (2 of 8):
Other Epic pets
Lava Frog guide
Four kilograms: that is the Lava Frog's base weight, the lightest of any pet in the Volcano and lighter than most pets anywhere in the first six biomes. Paired with $850/s of income, it makes this Epic one of the better candidates for a big size roll. It ranks 4th of 11 Epic pets and 169th of 198 overall.
Lava Frog Egg
- Grow time: 1 minute 30 seconds
- Reward: +27k Speed and $85k
- Base weight: 4 kg
The Lake's ordinary Frog earns $3/s. The Lava Frog earns more than 280 times that, which gives a sense of how far income scales by the sixth biome.
Against Snow's only Epic, the Walrus ($600/s, 1-minute egg), the Lava Frog earns about 42% more for 30 extra seconds and pays nearly twice the Speed (+27k versus +14.4k). Three Lava Frog eggs fit into one 5-minute nest reset.
What size does for it
Because the wiki's formula compares actual weight to base weight, a Lava Frog only needs to weigh 400 kg to be at 100 times its base. Estimates:
- Golden: about $2.12K/s
- Rainbow: about $2.98K/s
- 10 times base weight (40 kg): about $3.52K/s
- 100 times base weight: about $14.5K/s
- 200 times base weight: about $20.1K/s
- Rainbow at 100 times base weight: about $50.9K/s
A 100x Lava Frog would already outearn a plain Lava Iguana ($11K/s), the Volcano's top Legendary.
Rift flexibility
Like the Lava Gecko, the Lava Frog sits in the Easy tier of both the Riftborn and Riftbeasts sacrifice pools. With a 90-second egg, it is cheap to replace after the lobby Rift takes one, so plain copies are good to keep in reserve when either banner rotates in.
