Core Mechanics & Gameplan

Economy snowball that converts Luck into better drops, faster upgrades, and smoother runs.

Weapons & Upgrade Path

• Firestaff — Firestaff (safe ranged)
• Bananarang — Bananarang (pierce)
• Aura/Aegis — Aura/Aegis (safety)

Tome Priority & Why

• Luck — rationale depends on your kit; synergizes with this archetype’s multipliers.
• Quantity — rationale depends on your kit; synergizes with this archetype’s multipliers.
• Cooldown — rationale depends on your kit; synergizes with this archetype’s multipliers.
• Damage/Area — rationale depends on your kit; synergizes with this archetype’s multipliers.

Step-by-step Route

Phase 1 (0–4 min) — Stabilize wave-clear and safety; lock Tome #1, secure one tool for crowds and one for elites.
Phase 2 (4–8 min) — Finish main weapon upgrades; add Tome #2–#3; set up boss damage (burst or sustained).
Phase 3 (8+ min / Boss) — Cover weaknesses (Shield/Armor/Evasion), align cooldown windows, and kite smartly.

Common Mistakes

• Greeding damage before wave-clear is stable.
• Ignoring shrine tempo / pot routes.
• Overcapping one multiplier (e.g., Crit) and starving Quantity/Cooldown/Area.
• Taking Tome picks that conflict (e.g., heavy melee commit without defensive backup).

Map Notes & Matchups

• Open maps favor kiting and projectile arcs.
• Tight maps require early control (Aura/Aegis) and cooldown management.
• Elites with charges need spacing or grouping tools.

Patch Notes (keep updated)

• Track buffs/nerfs that change weapon/Tome priority.
