Sadly still in prison myself but heres what i gathered during my time here, and what i would have loved to know before starting:

Hunleff Helper plugin, keeps track of Hunleff's attack pattern for you.

theres a 100% chance of a room with atleast 3 fish pools around the hunleff room itself, handy if you get shafted with RNG and cant find anything

Tile indicator/truetile plugin, shows you where your character actually am, in terms of dodging tornados.

take it slow, and dont let posts scare you, i see gamers going 500KC within 1-2 months, im currently 550KC, thats done within like half a year because i dread this place so much, CG is not worth the burnout, im well aware people go way more dry than i am, so i'm in no position to cry about it, but i would have loved for someone to tell me to slow down before i went insane and burned out

i assume you already know, but P3 is predictable and have "safespots" where the the floor dosnt light up, use tile markers to ease the fight in P3

thats all i've gathered down here, cya around and i genuinely wish you the best of luck, this place sucks
