Hey,
Like the title says, I don’t really know how to approach this biome. I know how to build wands (at least, I know most of the stuff from the wiki) I had some “god runs”. I always some kind of objectives for the first parts of the game:
- getting water
- getting a decent amount of gold before next biome
- going to mushroom biome if I lack power before next portal
- move down when low hp
But when I reach the snow depths, I always find myself lost. Should I go up using the mineshaft? Should I run to the next biome? Should I farm gold on the enemies?
The next ones I generally know how to deal with them but snow depth feels like a coin toss for me.
Here’s a helpful guide from Wuote, a community member from DunkOrSlam’s stream.
Try collecting 2500 gold. This biome usually has spell shops and add mana spells on wands granting you much needed power spike. Move slowly, don’t jump straight down if you hear electricity chances are you are hearing an ukko – one of the deadliest enemies, avoid or shoot ukko from a distance, be very careful. How to traverse: generally, try to move from right to left – less chances to get overwhelmed/get ambushed (don’t go inside the dark area). If in danger – go right all the way till you see dark brown rock, then go straight down – that is one of the safest ways to skip this biome entirely.
Generally the snowy depths are quite tricky. I try not to spend too much time in them.
