I get past the 4th area, kind of easily, but the 5th and the final boss is cancer. Guides recommend getting a +6 plate armor. How the fuck do I get through the game if I don’t find it. What if I find it in the second or third area? There are not nearly enough scrolls of upgrade to get that high.
What am I supposed to do? I am missing something but I don’t know what.
You should use your resources to win. If you lose with SoU in your inventory then you wasted resources and a run.
Replace SoU with heal potions and I’d agree with you. But if you need to overspend SoU to survive the early game, then it was a doomed run anyway.
The Dwarven City and Demon Halls are balanced with the expectation that you’ll have heavily upgraded high-tier gear. Sewers and Prison are not. Generally I try to spend no more than 1 scroll per region on low- or mid-tier gear, and save the other 2 for my endgame gear.
Yeah, but if I find a +1 mail in a 6 chal I’ll invest 2 SoU to wear it in prison. And 13 SoU is basically the same as 15 because diminishing returns.
