How to get Ash

1. Open the DLC content

   Own and install Risen Ballbylon and complete the base game. Wood is a new DLC base ball. Burn is a base-game ball. Check DLC access →

2. Get both ingredients to level 3

   Obtain Wood and Burn when offered in your run. Choose each ball again in level-up upgrades until both are level 3. Merely holding both balls is not enough.

3. Select Ash at a Fusion Reactor

   Pick up a Fusion Reactor when one drops and choose the Ash Evolution. Look for the exact target name rather than trying to create a regular mixed fusion. The finished ball should be named Ash.

Plan from the balls you currently hold →

What Ash does

Passes through enemies and leaves an ash trail for a short time after launch. The ash applies stacking burn to enemies inside it.

Use & limits

The ash trail is temporary and only applies its burn effect to enemies inside it. It applies stacking burn, while Steam’s trail deals recurring damage.

When to choose it

Choose Ash when the route of your shot should apply stacking burn to enemies in its trail. Compare Steam if you instead want the trail itself to deal damage every second.

If the Evolution is missing

Check the exact ingredient pair and both current levels. A recipe sharing one ingredient is a different target: check that both selected names match Ash’s pair. If an ingredient has not appeared, it is still missing; no fixed drop time, minimum reactor count or guaranteed offer is implied.

If its effect looks different

If an enemy receives no new burn from the trail, check whether it is standing inside the ash and whether the short-lived trail is still present.
