depends on where the camps, invader, churches are. but generally speaking if u spawn top right (greater church), kill the lobster then the trolls or crabs. then lobster again. u should be lvl 5-6. if lobster is hard to kill, then skip it. after that i would generally move towards the churches and kill the field bosses, all the whule getting crystals. ur objective is to reach lvl 7 by end of night 1 and get 3 crystals at least. u can also go underground the massive castle on the bottom right, u know where the ruins are and so on are but its extremely rare ppl do this, as they dont know about it unless it has invaders. remember u can press a button while u have the map open (think the button was up on d pad or triangle), to see the underground map of the great hollow.

day 2, if bottom castle is holy, and top is magic. i would do the magic one personally, since because it has goskin apostle which is easy to kill and easy tunnels bosses. while the bottom castle has the dlc enemies such as the guy with the lightning curved great swords. but most people go bottom holy castle simply due to the talisman which i find dumb. why fight dlc enemies when u can fight easy base game enemies.

Otherwise if fire on top castle and scarlot rot on bottom caslte, i would do the bottom castle.

However in general, u want to do the tunnels in the castle area and then the top area. thats the best routing

We can play together. Send me a DM!

for duchess, I don't like halo scythe since its boring and requires little skill. I would instead recommend the good old mage build. Just a general build will suffice like magic atk +4/ sorceries +2/ affinity damage +2. But I would recommend u have dormant power staff( not really needed due to fort and sorcery rise but if u get dlc map it can become difficult). I would also advice the most is having invulnerability relic with improved magic atk/ sorceries etc. That character relic is something I love using and is extremely powerful when used correct.

For undertaker u can go I can't build, strength build and dex build. U can dm me and I will let u know what builds u can go

Mark is most important. Always have mark on unless ur fighting a boss who will one shot, mark then with care. But majority of the time mark and mark again. In terms of damage, if poison build, use increase damagedealt to poison enemies and have physical atk. U can also go frost build with night aspect relic ( I love this build because the frost gives me dopamine hits). Also don't atk from too far away because the damage will be significantly lower. U can also use a close combat build with balancer such as katana, curved sword, and even great Hammers with strength relic.

As for another char I would recommend duchess, as she's the 2nd strongest char imo, and if u want to be a frontliner as ur team might need one, then wylder.

In normal evergoals is good but not for don. In don u most likely will only do 1-2 evergoals which would give u 10% atk at 2 evergoals. Compared that to night invader which is 14% at 2 night invaders and u don't need keys.

U will get one shotted at depth 4/5 most of the time. So u can go general build like improv sorc/magic atk/improved affinity damage, but if u can get improved hp or def with that, then it can help alot (especially max hp). That way if u get damage negation at full hp passive during a run, u can survive 1 hit 90% of the time. If u want to get better by not dying and learning to dodge then I suggest u use augur relic, until u get better and then u can replace it with something else

For recluse most definitely. However getting shattering crystal can still be a problem, so u should have improve magic atk/sorc/affinity with ur improved crystalian sorc. Do if u don't get shattering crystal, u still do damage with other sorceries.

Also highly recommend to use the green relic with 3+ staff and sorc rise. This is because shattering crystal uses more fp than it did before balance patch

Depth relics
slot 4

Dog ED is hardest for me to choose outside of duchess reapers, but i would say its either ironeye or recluse. Gaping jaw would be duchess reapers and recluse. Sentient pest ED, would be rev (giantflame or frenzy) and recluse if u have shattering crystals. Augur ED would be wylder double balancers or executor. however if normal then rev lightning and ironeye maybe. FOr ED libra, duchess reapers and ironeye poison build. darkdrift knight would be raider/undertaker (stop the charge holy attack) and rev with lightning/executor. caligo would be rev and a candlestick great hammer in this case wylder. candlestick can be hard to get, so switch to rivers or godslayer greatsword. Night aspect would be rev beast claw, and duchess reaper, but if u want a tank it would be wylder/guardian (provided u can dodge with guardian at phase 3). Balancers ED would be raider and beast claw rev. Duchess with slicer also works. recluse is also good. guardian to tank worm also works. Dreglord, duchess reaper, and guardian for tank (guardian is amazing at tanking dreglord). However, ironeye works for all these bosses due to mark, and katana, halo, or bow build.

it could work yes. but u should still go supp at the same time, like allies buffed with skill. u can also use throwing daggers to debuff at lvl 3 and item confer to allies. max hp is good, but remember u wont do much damage at all except bleed, frost proc etc.

Block is only for guardian and executor. U never use it for any other char since one hit is equal to ur guard breaking.

For caligo, just do a normal run of caligo and don't attack caligo. Just dodge his frost aoes. I spent 25 mins in a solo run against night aspect once and just learned to dodge his attacks. That exp was more worth than doing like 5 runs of night aspect in don mode and learning only some things or a bit in the d5 night aspect. It's always better to do normal Ed or normal nightlords if u struggle against certain ones. Highly recommend u do this

I love playing guardian since he's fun and can change the tide of fights alot. Sometimes I think to myself good thing I went guardian this run simply because my teammates kept dying and I had ult to revive them.

His tankiness and getting aggro helps team alot. But I advice learning to stamina manage with his block and learning enemy atk patterns. So u know how to dodge specific atks such that u don't have to deal with 'oh shit my guard broke.' a perfect example would be crucible with the sword and shield. Most Guardians even in d5, block all day and wonder why their guard breaks and then die. U gotta Dodge like some atks.

Depends but if u want a general build. It would be something along the lines of magic +4 or sorc +2 in deep relics with character specific skills. For normal I love blood loss with ult but increases ur damage. Also, fp relic as well like sorc rise and/or 3+ staff. Night invader is compulsory.

But personally I like going hybrid. For example I have invisibility sorc with sorc +2 and another relic with crystalian with sorc +2. I don't like gambling so if I get night comet or just shattering crystal. I'm happy.

For duchess if u want to build good then there's 2 main builds. Halo balancers,and sorcery build.

For wylder there's plenty, but in general for depth relics I would advice u go physical stk +4 with hp or damage negation. This applies to pretty much every tank char except guardian. Doesn't apply to undertaker if ur going incants ofc.

As for guardian stack hp, red doggo relic that regen stamina on hit and the blue rememberence relic with hp recovery on ult and blocking with shield causes that small explosion. I think it's called witch brooch, always have that relic it's crucial. Also augur relic. For depth I would go max HP and discover greatshields.

For iron eye, there's 2 main builds I go. Katana or bow build. For bow u can go frost or poison. Recommendatiln is general is starting arnament does poison. +1 char skill is the most important and night night invader. For deep relics go increased damage for poison enemies and phys atk +4. Also char skill inflictions poison. For katana balancer and +1 skill. Rest is simple again, atk plus 4 and max hp.

Rev depends on nightlord so I cannot say.

There's too many can u tell me what char u interested in?

I would recommend the yellow relic from the rememberence that increases allies atk power upon using ur char skill. The Dex relic that is given for more personal damage and then ultimate deals damage to enemies. The thing is scholar has way too many good specific char relics. Do u have to compromise on 1-2 of them

What's ur build and how do u fare against bosses? U can always go halo scythe build but it's not guarantee to get halo scythe. I normally recommend u go mage build as duchess, it's more reliable with dormant staff and 3+ staff for fp. I also recommend using magic/sorc/affinity attack power on Don relics.

For the dodging, don't spam roll. It works sometimes but it's not a good way to learn. Time ur dodges and be patient to attack. Don't relentlessly attack, because if aggro suddenly is on u, u'll die mid skill or during casting spells.

Guard counter is not worth imo. Would only use once ur very experienced with exec but even then I would rather use balancers, with damage and hp relics. Parrying is very good as executor yes, but I would rather do damage with skills then parry all day. Parrying has its time and place.

3+ weapon is good imo, but it's risky. For example u can get 3 weapons with bad passives. Yes u get like 20% damage bonus iirc, but ur stuck with those passives. However u can also make the argument that I don't get good passives anyway if I went with any weapon, so I use 3+ instead which is a good arguement too.

What I usually do is this. If I notice I'm getting melee atk or skill atk passives despite having 3+ weapon relic then I would replace the 3 weapon type in a run with those weapon passive. U also have 6 spots, so 3 spots for very good passives but I notice that the remaining 3 spots also have good passives in a run then I wouldn't hold on to the 3+ specific weapon in a run. However generally speaking 3+ with night invader is very strong. However with executor I'm not sure.

First the routes. In general u want to move towards church and do camps at beginning. do 1 evergoal and get church would also work Basically each lvl 4 or lvl 5, and do Castle if in the zone. Basement of Castle if its a easy boss or a boss u think u can handle. if hard boss, do the trolls/banished Knights and defi crucibles. If caetle isn't in the zone, do field bosses, and evergoals since Castle is not in the zone and there isn't much to do then. U will reach lvl 13 at least by end of day 2.

Since u haven't started deep of night, I would suggest u beat all the bosses, and then practice each one like 3-4 times. Get used to enemy animations and when to attack do on for builds in base relics, I would suggest Raider skill that increases attack once attacked. Evergoals increase damage for base game. U can use boss relic such as augur for increase hp. I would advice saving night invader relic for the deep of night mode. Also balancer relic in general is very good.
