Black Flame Valley was very much like Death Valley in terms of its size. There was only one path that led into the valley. Compared to Death Valley, Black Flame Valley was situated further from the town. A player with max Agility and at full sprint would have taken at least forty minutes to reach the place. As for the Elementalists, they would require one hour on foot.
Due to its remote location and the high demand of the Black Flame Steed's Pet Eggs, skirmishes between parties or individuals happened frequently at this high-tier monster zone.
In locations such as these, it was crucial to completely overpower your opponent.
