Clear the first dungeon at level one

Open on YouTube

Video notes

  1. Video takeaway

    Enter the first dungeon at level one

    The run starts under-levelled, so watch how route choice and risk are controlled.

  2. Video takeaway

    Review the starting equipment

    Check the current loadout and place weapons and consumables before entering.

  3. Video takeaway

    Choose an opening combat skill

    Take an active skill that immediately changes how the first fights play.

  4. Video takeaway

    Pull one enemy at a time

    Approach the edge of vision slowly so several enemies do not engage together.

  5. Video takeaway

    Check the doorway before committing

    Use doors to gather information and control tempo instead of rushing into an unknown room.

  6. Video takeaway

    Fight from a one-tile doorway

    A narrow entrance limits how many enemies can reach you at once.

  7. Video takeaway

    Treat bleeding immediately

    Stabilize the injury before exploring further so a small status does not become lethal.

  8. Video takeaway

    Break line of sight against ranged enemies

    Step behind a door or wall and make the ranged enemy approach you.

  9. Video takeaway

    Reset a failed pull

    Retreat when spacing is poor, then rebuild a controlled one-on-one engagement.

  10. Video takeaway

    Choose the battlefield before the boss room

    Keep an escape route and pick terrain that restricts the enemy before opening the door.

  11. Video takeaway

    Sort the loot and leave safely

    After the fight, manage carry weight and supplies before taking the safe route out.
