im having a hard time figuring what my initial plan should be
i have barely any mf so going for the long routes makes me wonder if it truly worth it (mephy,andy,nil)

right now im doing cows pindle and eldritch
im building a 4x ptopaz armor jsut to boost mf a bit

i feel dmg below 6-7k is very slow for cows
i have shop a 3x trapsin claw and a +2 trap claw from anya it starting to feel better but progression is way way way slower than sorc it not even close to being a good starter so far for me no key drops from over 300 runs contess/nil as arcane sanctuary are long runs

Sunder doesn't work for traps and -% light res doesn't work for traps. Trapsins kinda got left behind.

I would maximize damage and not focus on mf so that at least your clear speed won't be completely scuffed.

? sunder does work it affect the enemys and it works just like infinity does and i agree on second part i made some test and before 7k traps cows were too slow to be a viable farming strat and nil before 5.5-6k was really hard to do comfortably (im not using shadow warrior or merc)

too late to do it already though

7k is fine for cows, you only need to kill 1 and then ds explodes them, use cloak of shadows if they are swarming you
5.5k is more than enough for nihl, mind blast some of the enemies around him to convert and its the safest d key runner early ladder imo. with corpse explosion even lite immune nihl is np

sunder on traps may not even be worth it, your not doing much damage to 95% res and you dont have a cheap way to lower it. fireblast handles immunes fine already
