The Phoenix can poop out Silica pearls and black pearls

Only found on SE during heatwaves. Can cook raw meat in its inventory and smelt raw metal. Also, Jeremy just announced it will be ridable ?

Hotter than a Hot Pocket straight out of the microwave. Melts ore and cooks your meat!

It's little kick attack can be used to mine any ore node effectively which is the best for metal seance it can smelt metals four at a time with no other resources, they also need sulfur to eat, can be healed with fire, and poop silica pearls.

Although it doesn't land, the Phoenix regains stamina by flying idle in the air, ridden or not. It craps silica pearls, eats sulphur, and its C gathers like an axe. Hold space for its dash, right click for the fireball, and everything but the C ignites people aflame. It can smelt and cook stuff, but sadly charcoal don't happen when you put wood in it. DISSAPOINTMENT : IMMEASURABLE

You can locate a phoenix ash with a parasaur

They can produce pearls of both types and cook food and smelt metal but one of the most underratted hidden mechanics of phoenix is the fact it takes negative damage from fire which in ume translates to healing makeing the phoenix one of the best trench runners imo its full of fire wyverns that do dot so say it does 500damage itll hit for 5 ticks over 5 seconds giving you 2500 in healing hope this helps if it does simply thank your local DrHashCap

Not only can cook meat and burn metal,mine had hide and oil in its inventory and it created gasoline.

Works good for me in wyvern trench seems the fire wyverns heal my Phoenix

Tame one during the heatwave event, then when it turns to dust, build a cage around the pile so that when it comes back next superheat event, it will be trapped!
