Thanks for answers, will try normal mode and if it will get harder after 60-65 will switch to easy mode.
My final setup isn't that great and had slow levels from 65 to 71 on first attempt.


That is to be expected :) The first one is always the hardest on any class. Just stick with it and you will see you will improve quickly with a little fg invested in better gear :)

My best advice is to find out what skillers are collecting for items and what they are paying. This will be you most consistent income and allow you some fg to work with towards upgrades. You can also sell white if they are too hard to complete in the well. This will further boost your available FG :)

The best way to fund this game remains playing other games for FG however.

take to note, after 71, easy mode is cancel´d. so lets say you have pass´d your first toon, and now is on samurai, that means that the last 2 lvls you have to do on "normal" mode. will only affect you if you choose to go on easy mode for the first 71 lvls.

what i mean is, lvl 71-72 and 72-73 will be normal mode.


From what Im hearing the easy mode 71+ still caps the EPs at 1 but lets 1-3 reg mobs spawn. I cant be sure... Ive never used it.

Use /set easy 1 all the way up until you get better gear.

Using this on second run you will stop certain objectives from spawning:
Pinch of Evil
Hack the Horde
Ambush
and others.
... Note: these are decent to get, but it will also mean you will not get soften the sneaky shell spawn until after level 60-65.

The objectives you can get are:
Explore
Bits n Pieces
Treasure Pest
... These are still good ones also... I like Treasure Pest

This is where Soften the shell will be activated, but after level 46 if you have completed the other three listed.

Once you get to level 71+ you will encounter 1-3 normal monsters and only 1 evil presence... tested this myself.

When you are happy with your gear, you can solo without using the /set easy 1 mode and reap any rewards that
may drop.

i said this in the morning of easy mode. when people were asking me why i didnt use it. i said "i want hard mode 5reg 5ep´s" - that would be a nice challenge. not that 3 eps aint hard at higher levels. but for the levels i choose to be harder

Sometimes I like to have a friend (normally a TD detector) afk in my solo games :) The added monsters arent really an issue until the higher levels. Its nice to find 1-5 eps. Plus then multi-target abilities feel more useful too :D

I just wish there was a way to manually increase spawn cap. /maxevil 5

These days when you have a sitter in your game, you also get the added benefit of gaining less exp per kill because the game counts as a duo game at that point. It’s actually great for not outleveling a map too quickly and getting more high lvl time :)

I can be sure... easy mode caps EPs at 1 at all levels, even if you still spawn 1-3 normal mobs at lvl 71+. This is how first climb has worked in the past as well. I’m glad people are actually paying attention lol, the first time I said this in one of these threads people told me I was just wrong without testing it for themselves. Stuff like that holds back our understanding of the game for months sometimes :lol:

Great for EP hunting :D not so much for actual leveling. Its ok since the goal when I have a sitter is more EPs and completing the map without TD ruining it :D

Anyway 3 evils are crazy as fuck, had to run like 5-6 times to town and I barely cut off half life from one monster :o
Don't want to imagine how will be on higher levels.

I'm trying, with each forum gold gained from marketplace I try to invest and upgrade gear.
But I don't gain as much as I wish to have insane damage and defense from start, so I have to take it step by step and upgrade gear as much as I can even if will take longer time.
