Gold farming build

Why?
You need gold to level up your cards. Starting from small amount it will quickly require enormous gold piles (17k gold per 1 level, 25k for tier 10 potions). With setup described below you can get up to 200k gold per run.

Prerequisites:
1. Maxed out speed potion.
2. Maxed out Rogue gold find on the skills tab.
3. Unlocked Mythic difficulty.
4. (Optional) Unlock multiple secrets for +10-30% gold each.

Build and tactics:
1. Main character: Fighter (for tanking), Rogue (For 2x Gold)
2. Skills:
Fighter: Lucky (will spawn chests from elite enemies more often), any 4 weapons with low cooldown, Move speed skill (unlocked on the Rogue skills tab) and potions find (more speed potions).
Rogue: Avoid any XP shrines. After maxing initial weapon you will get only gold from chests.
3. Tactics:
Prioritise chests, then statues for cards. Mythic difficulty raises cap to 15, it will take a lot of runs to get all cards. Crypt map is the easiest one. You will have more time here to look for chests.

Screenshots:
Fighter build:
Rogue build (less items = more gold in the run)
Chest drop example (Only gold because all Rogue items are 100% already)
Possible outcome:

Just to clarify: I need to complete Endless Power on all difficulty levels to unlock it for mythic?

I completed an EP run on Legendary, and it did not unlock EP for Mythic run.
Dungeon Master needs to be done on Mythic (I tried the settings on Legendary and was not awarded, also not awarded the Power Surge even though I did a Legendary run with EP).
This is slightly confusing.

[Timpton]

To add to the turbo trials info, I also did mythic 1 in 4:03 and got the achievement.

[jp1477]

I found some answers, so I deleted my older comment and will include the info that helped me finish all the achievements:

One Hit Wonder - Had to be on mythic (any stage I think).
Turbo Trials - I think it has a time requirement...I cleared mythic stage 1 in 3:50 and got it..
Destiny's Draw - Had to be on mythic (I did the last stage).
Uncertain Path - Had to be on mythic (I did the last stage).
Power Surge - Finished while clearing the way to Dungeon Master (see below).
Dungeon Master - I had to clear Endless Power runs on other difficulties to unlock additional difficulties and climb up to mythic. After I beat legendary Endless Power, I still couldn't do it on mythic until after I made a separate run to kill the last boss on mythic (even though I'd already done it).

Thanks to ghost7878 and BKOM_Saecred for helping me figure out what I was missing for the last few!

[Şekilli Şukullu Nick]

can someone explain how can i get power surge and dungeon master i dont get it

[Johny]

Hello, Secret #2 It wasn't enough for me to have just Contingency and Bursting Shield, didn't manage for several runs just with that. But the achievement popped when I ran with Bursting Shield, Contingency, Toughness and Mountain Resilience. My guess would be that you have to have the armor one too.

[KarnaGC]

Thanks for your return :)
Just need to wait then~

[Easy Target]

Dungeon Master - complete a run with Darkest Dungeon, box trap and 3rd option which is not available in the current version. Will update guide tomorrow

[KarnaGC]

What about others achivements (Destiny's Draw, Dungeon Master, One's Odyssey, Power Surge, Turbo Trials, Uncertain Path) ? Are they avalaible right now ?

I've tried to unlock Dungeon Master with Darkest Dungeon, box trap + 2 weapons between 117-119% and didn't worked (Mythic difficulty).

[ghost7878]

Got #6 similar to Lindyhop Mythic Cave playing Rogue 4/4 mobility, max fleet & armour defense. Had warrior companion with max momentum but no fleet. [spoiler/]

[Lindyhop]

I got secret #6 on completing mythic crypt playing Rogue with Warrior companion. 4/4 Mobility, Fleet, and Armored Defense on Rogue. Momentum(?) (or whatever the warrior more movement speed on block is). Also maxed movement potions and Hypermode. So unsure if its unlocked by speed talents equipped, a max movement speed reached, distance traversed over the run, or something else but it appears to be movement related.

Also of note the unlocked mode has an optional modification, but if you want the linked achievement for that mode you are hopping into the new portals immediately and facing the boss at level 1 (possibly racing a clock for time spent on run completion as well).
