I think upgrading/changing your skills would be great also, as well as possibly changing the weapon of your general to increase his strength as well as change his attack style (swordsman, archer, spearman, etc...)
Dungeon navigation is buggy for me, no matter what browser I use. Is this just me? My character will run endlessly in one direction or just not respond to a directional command.
Usually when the flashing glitch with the "Joining cup will remove in-training item" box appears, refreshing the game will make it go away. However, after winning the Bronze tournament, the game glitched again and refreshing will not fix it. Did I seriously just lose my progress? D:
I'd recommend crafting a Nail Bat and Vindicator as soon as possible. I did that almost immediately and it's been smooth sailing ever since. The Nail Bat is an Iron Ignot (3 ores + 3 ores) and Timber (3 wood + 3 wood). Vindicator is the Nail Bat + Iron Globe (3 Iron Ignots + Alkahest). It's a little time consuming, but so worth it.
