Retreat often
Two safe delves beat one greedy push. You keep your roster and your loot.
Curate trinkets
Keep the resist and damage pieces that fit your builds. Sell the rest so the stash stays useful.
Use the databases
Do not hold 99 enemies and 37 bosses in your head. The enemy database and boss database are the plan.
Train a bench
A deep roster means a bad roll does not end the campaign. Invest in people, not only gear.
Light and food
Spend a torch and pack food before each dive. The small prep saves the run.
Scout the class
The enemy database groups foes by class. Read it and resist the worst.
Stun the tell
Save your interrupt for the boss’s big move. A blocked hit is a run saved.
Rotate the sane
Swap stressed heroes out before they break. A rested party delves again tomorrow.
