In the name of weird science.
You’ll notice a quest marker with a plus symbol in Mid’s Dungeon.
He’ll explain that he’s working on a new invention but requires bomb ash.
It’s time to go hunting!
It can be found in an enclosed area known as The Crock in Sanbreque.
The nearest fast travel location is The Dragon’s Aery.
From there,summon your chocoboand ride south then follow a narrow path south-east.
Yet, it does move around quite quickly and naturally likes to deal out fire-based attacks.
These enemies will also spew flames at you, which you’ll want to dodge.
As you take down Bomb King’s health, it’ll keep summoning more bombs with this move.
But back to the current quest, you’re after bomb ash.
With this material, he’s now able to build his new invention, the Telamon alembic.
Weird science, dubious science?
In any case, this now means Clive can carry more consumables with him than before.
These enemies are Level 36-38, which you should be well matched against at this point in the story.
Just dish out your Eikon abilities and you’ll breeze through these encounters without breaking a sweat.
