It is hard, and it gets harder. You should level your gear, use myth gear until its high level, +6 plus, you can increase the droprate of items, if you use mind and space,
SMS
MSM

Even if you not defeated the pilgrim bosses, you will still get a decent drop armount. So its worth farming. Also, make sure you have unlocked

Schematics from Temple of life, and do as many of the transmute prayer storylines as possible. Later on, transmuting gets a lot easer, then when you do finally start killing stuff, get vamp ore, and start using vampire weapons, and you will be killing stuff fairly quickly.

ive been doing the level game with dodge gear but it doesnt seem to work now, so ill try switch mithril and see, thanks!

dodge gear should still work, just make sure its levelled high enough, but I did do myth gear for a bit, until I got vamp, then it was a lot easier, and another tip for a good weapon,

get fire to 55

i tried full mythril armour and weapons to +4 and still didnt stand a chance D:

Did you do boosts for armour and damage, and some in crit? You maxed out your enhancements? Are you using spells? lighting storm and splash make for a good combo. (or fireball+ . Are you using any + spells like strength?

Also, what casts are your wizards doing?, haste, stoneskin, blur. mana expanse, regen, guard, longevity, strength, levitation, enchant mana spouts, and streamers, and wizard focus and frail.

And then save that as a perm cast setup. you can turn on more, but the above are pretty vital. but as you gain more mana, you can have more. If you are selling stuff, have one for richness and market stalls, and put some items on your wizard list to produce and sell.

then you can switch to whatever you need.

I think if you have them going, plus have a wizard on antidote, and soak and soar,

make sure your mind is a decent level so you can see hints in the stats / hint available screen. And complete some side quests. If you unlocked student, make a be line for it, and get some researchers going. to help level your main elements and your secondaries.

Edit

Check this guide, its very advance, but the basic idea is sound, even if you can't do it all, its a good guide to follow once you got all the transmuting stuff unlocked.

But even if you can't get stuff to high levels, (later you can) but yeah, its a good idea to get your element levels to a decent level, plus do pilgrimages.


don't be afraid to retire, its useful to do to unlock more of the story elements,

im perma casting every single defense buff i have and die instantly. Trying the poison build and the mythril build also, enhancements maxed, but my boosts are in time and air.

tho all my elements are about 47-53, and progress is super slow but retirement doesnt recommend i retire yet
matthew Jun 8, 2024 @ 8:20am 
If you using myth gear, reset to fire and earth, if your using dodge gear, use air and poison. Dont use time, you need to focus on two that compliments the build you are using. and level in the previous zone for monsitum, Speeding up time will not help you here. also if you got crit, put some points into that.

If your still stuck, I highly suggest you join the discord channel, plenty of people there to help you out, I'm also on there. But there are way more experienced people with greater knowledge that could advise you better. Which is why this place is a bit dead. As most people who play the game I think are are discord.

I would do that, if you are still struggling.

For me it was really just going with full etheral make pet take curse and go back to tanking with dodge, can't kill every enemy there but can kill most (dodge doesn't exactly work for watchers)

Then make any vampiric weapon and you pretty much clear enemies with any gear

It is quite a bottleneck ngl

i dont have ethereal unfortunately
matthew Jun 9, 2024 @ 8:35am 
Ethereal are quest items, and you do get some decent items if you trade them in. But the quest trigger is at the school grounds, but even then, you need decent gear to take those on, at least +4 myth, but if you got the quest, there are worth getting.
sewer hideout,
burial chamber
subterranean sanctuary
castle on the bridge

or you can just let your familiars do the work by exploring.
matthew Jun 9, 2024 @ 9:32am 
yes, that is also possible. But you still need the quest mind. but if you got it, then its worth it.
