How do you trigger the Skull Cavern quest?
How do you trigger the Skull Cavern quest? Reaching the bottom of these regular Mines grants the Skull Key, which unlocks the Skull Cavern mines located in the Calico Desert. A quest given in a Secret Note by the mysterious Mr. Qi tasks players with reaching Level 100 of Skull Cavern in return for a reward.
Do staircases stay in Skull Cavern?
Staircases work just like the game-supplied down-ladders. Each one works only for one use. Leaving the mine or returning to a higher floor will result in the staircase being permanently gone. In addition, once a staircase has been placed, it cannot be picked up again, even if it has not been used.
