Resources drive progress

Incantations at the cauldron spend gathered materials. Runs drop them as you clear rooms; gather between runs too.

Core materials

Ash and Bones come from clearing and deaths; Psyche from bosses and bonds; Nectar and Ambrosia from the Wretched Broker for relationships. Shadow and Fate Fabric feed the biggest incantations.

Check the recipe first

Incantations name exactly what they need. Read the recipe, then farm that resource instead of everything at once. See the incantations guide.

Frequently asked questions

Which resources matter most?

The ones your next incantation needs. Check the recipe before you farm anything.

Should I save resources?

No. Spend them on upgrades that make the next run easier. Hoarding slows progress.
