Summary0006472: Fireball unlock path is not smooth
DescriptionFireball II requires Magma to unlock. Magma can't be unlocked until Tier 2. So you are stuck with Fireball I until you get to Tier 2, at which point you will be ready to go straight to Fireball III (minus the time it takes you to find the extra magma for that tier) which doesn't seem like a smooth upgrade curve.

I posted this, and then I found magma as a secret mission reward. Now I'm not sure if that means magma dropping for secret missions at tier 1 is a bug, or if the description for magma needs to be updated to mention secret missions in some way.

The bug was the description of magma was outdated. We became aware of a ton of issues like the one you reported here a few weeks back, and fixed (I think) all of them, but the text lagged behind. If you find any more cases where the upgrade path really isn't smooth, please do let us know.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that the reference guide is wrong right now, and that Magma is a T1 item. But, I'll have Chris verify. And, either way, it's still a bug.
