In order to actually get somewhere in the game, you have to avoid most battles. You don't level up by fighting. It's all about equipment and gems. So fight monsters that are in the way of your path, in the way of chests, and definitely in the way of gems and artifacts. Only go out of the way to kill a monster if you can one-hit kill it (for extra gold). Don't be afraid to use your escape wings!
Dear God. I saw 'Inspired by MotherLoad' and this instantly became my favorite game. MotherLoad was my game as a small child! As soon as I begun playing that's what I thought of! I love you people for this game. Truly <3
I've got some very simple tips!
1) Always go for treasure box's, artifacts and regular items.
2) Ignore money bags that are gaurded. We don't want to lose life for 10 coins.
3) Avoid battles unless you're sure you can kill them in one hit. Killing one hit monsters are good for building gold.
4) Stock up on health potions
5) Sell extra artifacts, but never sell artifacts that you only have one of. Say you have a weapon that's stronger than your artifact weapon. If you sell the artifact weapon, you'll start over later with a dagger. :(
6) Feel free to replace artifacts with stronger regular items. Artifacts are really just good starter equipment.
7) ENJOY IT :DD
