What's the best way for a casual player to get to demigod?

[BigTiddyGeorgeForemanGrill]

I'm not able to keep up with pvp at all unless i'm duos or trios with randoms and so i'm just wondering what is the strat for someone like me to get that sweet sweet unlockable race.

CHECK out ruins map and just loot and avoid people.

rogue lockpick, go health as much as you can and pdr and get a couple true magic damage with poison as it stacks with the poison well, greater luck potions and maybe a little luck on gear if can

Only do castle
open every portal you see.
aim for lions-head/Golden/or Royal coffers
Target sub-bosses like "Big-Bird", Wraith, Golem, Skeletal champian, "1 eye'd willy"
Always try to go down to inferno while doing the listed things above.
You can easily earn over 400+ per run, and on the high-end, over 1k.
certain rooms you want to target.

Other option is only Goblin-caves pvp....nothing else....just pvp, tho it will start to get grindy if you only do pvp cause the higher the rank you are, the less you get from lower ranks.

if i play druid and just loot the scraps off players bodies would that be feasible? Like just loot dead players that I haven't killed, grab their legendaries, uniques or is ruins just the only option for pacifist?

you have to find looted gear unless changed, blue+ treasures and purple+ gears usually a safe bet. with misc singles are fine if good

(that is if you just want points for ranked and you're given 100 points per red stairs in castle. so +200 for free going into inferno. then the misc chests/mobs killed adds up too)

also utility slots give some points but less or used to. so a banjo in your inventory thats purple is faaaar less points than a purple chest piece of something for an example. but if you can put it onto your hotbar ehh why not

that'll get you nowhere if you're trying to grind ap. Gold, yes. technically some people "need" high-end kits to do HR and if you need money, thats an option i suppose, tho people would call it "ratting"
you don't have to kill players and can 100% avoid them if you want, whether or not you're able to run from them would be the only thing stopping you really, but that can be situational.

new druid heal perk on its own is good without magic healing. you can build a 125-224 kit with ~140-150hp and have the needed spells like "nature's touch" "restore" "managrove" "dreamfire" and/or "treant"/"thorn barrier". natures + restore + perk gives you like over 150hp over 30secs, more if you add a potion, making player encounters a little easier for those unable to handle the hp + hp-gain. I've had people think i was dead after a few hits, turns his back, and i kill him np....i wasn't even 50% x).

Edit: i think there's a timing thing with natures touch + restore. sometimes if you cast 1 after the other, the HoT will align itself, so you have 1 larger tick instead of 2 separate instances which would yield far less HP since the perk is +2hp per instance of health gained

what do you mean by casual?

i'm casual, i play 1-2 hrs a day and yes its impossible to reach demi-god.

this grind is not meant to be for casuals, but to people who breath and live in the game.

i say impossible because when you hit the second last rank, you will need a lot of points, so much so that you're filled to the brim with loot and kill every monster.
and if you die in that rank, you will be set back by 5 games. yes die 1 time and you will be playing 3-5 games for that 1 death to get back where you were.

anyone telling you that you have a chance as a casual is full on copium or they just don't know what a casual is. (at least to me a casual is someone who plays a couple hours every day or every other day, and someone whos survival percentage is not 100% and someone who will not have perfect runs with a ton of points.)
