How to Make Money:
------------------
Written by Shy2528.
-=Basic Principles=-
* Maximize the "+X% gold” stat (grey stat in the bottom of every item
tooltip, dismantling doesn't add this stat though!)
* Minimize the amount of consecutive rerolls.
* Minimize the amount of rerolls in general by consecutively buying and
selling items (thus revealing possible dismantle/build items of a higher
rarity) and also minimize the amount of gold you spend this way
(Use the library to help remember the cheap options). This has to be
taken with a grain of salt because the items that you buy will appear
more often leading to complicated interactions sometimes.
* Maximize the usage of your inventory slots by keeping as many items as
possible (-to combine but also in general), this also helps with selling
items a little bit faster because you can click one button in the chest
menu instead of selling items one by one.
* Maximize the amount of gold gain through set mechanics like wood and
mercenary by switching them in when you can (but try to find a balance
with 4).
* Maximize the value of your dismantles (together with 2. this implies
that you look/reroll for a suiting item throughout every room of every
floor) by saving a specific amount of your inventory slots for future
dismantles but DON'T combine your dismantle options every time, the
optimal decisions are depending on many factors of your current game
state (combining loses value at every rarity step).
* Don't let them steal your money.
-=Min-Max Build=-
4 mercenary set items and taking the keystone where you always encounter
6 enemies outscales by far currently.
This should even be addressed in balancing and gives so much gold that you
make very very slow progress through the floors because you can spend so
much time on dismantling only very high stats starting from very early on,
consider 3 and 6.

-=Planning Your Character Build=-
The game's shop tends to show you items you've bought before. This happens
less the more you buy. Because of this, it's good to plan your character
build before you start playing. This way, you know what items to look for
in the shop. You can either use these items or sell them for permanent stats
in the black market. If you only buy what you need for your build, you're
more likely to have high-level gear for the harder levels later in the game.
The character rune tree gives bonuses to your character, not to enemies.
Look at these bonuses and think about which ones work well together for
your build. Use the library to see all the items you've found before. This
can help you plan your build. Also, note which level each item starts
appearing on.
You'll probably change your gear once or twice before getting your final
set for the late game. Planning this out helps you avoid wasting money in
the shop and gets the most out of what the store offers.
-=Important Equipment and Stats=-
Some general stats are helpful for progressing through the game and dealing
with tougher enemies. Look for equipment sets and items that work well
together. These combinations may change as the game developers make updates.
If you're having trouble dealing damage in the early stages, try using a
weapon from the Swiftness set. This lets you attack twice as much, which
can help you defeat enemies faster.
Good Early Equipment Sets:
--Scout Set:
* Available from the start
* Helps you avoid getting hit early in the game
* In the current test version, you can choose an option to change into
a Striker at level 5, which lets you attack enemies when you dodge
--Silver Set:
* Available from the start
* Removes negative effects at the beginning of your first two turns
* You only need one item to get this benefit
* Works well with another set called Royal Sin later in the game
--Mercenary Set:
* Very useful for extra attacks and finding more equipment
* Available from level 2
* Can be used effectively even at very high levels
--Ethercrest Set:
* Available from level 2
* Includes armor, jewelry, and weapons
* Gives you good defense and a freezing attack that damages enemies over time
* Gets stronger as you collect more pieces of the set
--Turtle Set:
* Available from level 3
* Prevents damage on your first turn
* Gives good defense
* Works well with another set called Dazzle for even more protection
--Demon Set:
* Available from level 6
* Lets you attack multiple times on your first turn
* With three pieces, you also get multiple attacks on your second turn
* Even using one piece (usually the ring) can greatly increase your damage
--Royal Set:
* Available from level 7
* Works well with other sets to make you very hard to defeat
There's also a useful item called the Common Marauder's Helmet that counts
as part of two different sets at once, giving you benefits from both.
-=Good Items to Salvage=-
At the end of each level, you can break down an item in the Black Market to
get permanent stat boosts for your character. This is very important for
surviving in harder levels later in the game.
--Important stats and items to look out for:
* Precision: You need 100 to hit enemies on level 20. Keep a good Hunter's set
item to break down before level 20.
* High-quality weapons and armor: These give big boosts to your attack and defense.
* Giant's Ring: Available from level 8, gives a good boost to your health percentage.
* Dazzle: Gives you lots of temporary armor. The amulet is the best piece to use.
* Cataclysm mask: Good for increasing your power.
* Believer's Locket: Increases faith, which helps you do more damage to tough
enemies.
* Bloodedge: Gives a big boost to physical attack, life steal, and armor
penetration.
* Turtle Gauntlet: Gives a big bonus to attacks based on your armor. Works well
with Dazzle.
* Rod of Doom: Gives a big magic attack bonus, but magic attacks might not be
the best choice for getting to higher levels right now.
* Throngler: Gives big bonuses to physical attack, critical hits, and health.
Most players will want to switch to this weapon as soon as they can get it.
Remember, breaking down these items is just as important as using them. Try
to save extra ones to break down for permanent stat boosts.
-=Pay Attention to Enemies!=-
Attack Order
The order in which you attack enemies can be very important. For example:
* From the first level, there's an enemy (the boar) that can stop you from
attacking. Try to kill it first.
* From level 4, there's an enemy (Wizard Skeleton) that blocks extra attacks.
Always kill this one first.
* Pay attention to which enemy defeats you and why. Think about whether attacking
a different enemy first would help.
* Kotya is a famous tough enemy. He blocks attacks on the first turn. To beat
him, skip your first turn or use abilities that protect you on the first turn.
* Jupiter is another difficult enemy. It can dodge attacks and then stop you from
attacking. Make sure your attacks are very accurate to beat Jupiter.
* The Iron Golem has strong armor and tough attacks. Use attacks that can get
through armor to beat it.
-=Converting=-
You can sacrifice items in the shop to get their stats for one round. This doesn't
cost anything except for resetting the shop afterwards. Use this if you need a big
boost in power for one round. For example, if you're not doing enough damage, look
for items that increase your attack power and convert them before attacking.
Guide to Elys 1B Overheal Floor 110+ Build:
-------------------------------------------
Written by Just Ambe
I ain’t explaining anything about how I got here cus I don’t remember what I did,
but here’s an Elys Build that get me past 1 BIllion Health. It uses Jade to refill
your armor, and then orion to convert it to overheal, and then lifesteal and
vampiercing to heal up the overheal. Gold set and a bunch of liquid gold potion
is also used as insurance and helps you scale damage by empting your health bar
to heal and turn into damage.
Got past level 110, but by this point nothing can really deal enough damage since
enemy health scale faster than their damage (I think, my source is I made it up),
and this build basically converts all their damage into HP. The funniest part about
this build is the towers curse can’t end your run cause it uses your base Max Hp
not the overheal so you can just continue indefinitely.
Oh it also uses faith and malice? For damage really. I dunno, I was watching a YT
video while grinding this build to floor 109. Oh and you definitely need some
piercing to start with, gotta hit their health to trigger lifesteal. Besides that,
It’s nice that Elys is finally viable, Patch 1.14 is pretty good imo, def not the
same megaloot I played when I started playing, but there’s a lot more viable build
now than just royal viaran and fae dazzle spam, so I like it.
