Tips and tricks?

[ZarethKnyght]

I'm enjoying the game so far but I do feel a little blind when playing it. Does anyone have any tips, tricks, and/or suggestions? I would really like to beat the floor "bosses." And yes I know they're optional.

no, because cleric can heal all members, can also use holy light ( reduce acc by 30% )

Technically, Ranger can mimic 'Holy Light' through 'Arrow Rain' with Blind % fixes.

And 'Heal All' really loses practical use when your party has high HP regen a/o Vampiric fixes.
A singular heal or some other perseverance option is usually more economical for those times your guy needs a fix before they can regain HP. :blood_angels:

Yeah but the probl with arrow rain from the ranger, he has 70% to hit and with the clerc is 100%. And to use arrow rain, you need some stuff to decrease ac. i prefer to use my clerc with holy light and put strong poison dmg to my ranger and do arrow rain. but its a personal choice btw. you can play what you want

It's 70% of accuracy and you can boost Ranger accuracy over 100%. Plus, the blind fix can be applied along with poison, through lucky fix, augments or having fixes on different items.

That said, not all enemies are susceptive towards blind - some having over 130% accuracy themselves.

I personally like killing every boss, don't be afraid to rest up a floor before going to the next. Do note that resting revives dead characters too.

Also, for bosses, feel free to use some of those buff potions, they make a huge difference. If you have a tank with shield wall, a toughness potion on top of that helps so much. Energy siphon is also a nice spell for boss fights. Don't just use it to get mana back, feel free to use it to reduce THEIRS as well. The beholder for example is a boss that is greatly reduced in power when it's low on mana.

Also for new players, when having issues with a new floor, it's important to change your party formation for each fight. Traditional rpg games and dungeon crawlers tend to be designed so that the player rarely, if ever changes their party formation unless they actually change their entire party or whatever. But adjusting your formation for each and every fight is pretty key. As such, this also makes some abilities more useful if you normally don't do this, like the barbarian rush/charge/whatever it's called for example.

That said, I feel like the new version seems harder than the kongregate version. Is it?

Often asking to me question i can tell you a tip
Step 1: try to find items without figthing (as much as you can) and then optimize your equiqment
Step:2:deafeat a wakest possiable enyemy that you will find and sell/optimize items
Step:3 reapet 2 untill you will have problems
Addiotal tip: Use altars ONLY when noone have no powe/someone is dead
Also my best Class combination:
1Mage-Intellect (see a little lower)
2Rogue-Quickness (when with mage that can use cosmic prision can use Coup le grace* also weak point and sneak attack are veryfine remember to give him as low armor as you can and use meele with him)
3Barbarian-guess yourself XD(powerfull skill's like charge and changing place with your friend** can be ONLY thing that will safe you when fighting with bosses i mean minotaurus and other... also he can make much damage with minothaur axe)
4Ranger-Dexterity (Swiftness skills and piercing arrow can safe your life also if you find toxic orb you should enchant Ranger weapon first)

*i don't remember the skill name so i guess that is wrong but close
**don't remember skill name

Good luck heroes! kill them all!

Killing the boss party on first floor is possible, but in longterm I'd advise against it. The spoils from that boss don't last as long (due to progressive powercreep in the next couple floors). Furthermore, you'll bleed your party for it - which you don't want.

If you want to kill everything from the start (without wanting to think about 'longterm'),
then pick a lower difficulty. :redskull:

Whether one can or can't isn't the question, rather whether one should or shouldn't.
Imo, it's not something that is necessary.

The chance one will loot a utility item is low and
if it's a weapon one will be hit by severe powercreep the next 5 levels.
The better items are of Legendary quality (legendary creatures).
