Let me start with the conclusion: attack speed is everything in this game. You must not think that the attack speed given by the system at the beginning is "enough". I thought so at first, but it wasn't until I compared the 0.2-second knife of the krypton guy next door that I understood what the output ceiling was. With every increase in attack speed, the final damage increases by multiples. This is not a metaphysics, but a real numerical linkage.
I have summarized a set of three-day quick-pass gameplay, suitable for those who are willing to spend some time researching.
On the first day, don't waste your energy on low-level maps. Follow the main line. If the main line is stuck, go to the wild to hunt elite monsters immediately. Don't pick up the dropped equipment one by one, just check whether there is an attack speed entry. Even if the attack power is 20 points lower, as long as the attack speed is high, the efficiency of clearing monsters will be doubled. I collected three pieces of attack speed equipment on the first day, and my advancement speed was nearly two hours faster than people of the same level.
The next day is key. Many people are in a hurry to fight the wild boss and lose blood. The boss's shield mechanism is like giving away food if you hit it head-on. The correct approach is to first clear the side quest chain on the lower left. That series will give you a temporary buff, which has an additional armor-breaking effect on the boss's shield. It doesn't last long, but it's enough for you to finish a round of bursts. Ignore this buff and attack the boss, and you will experience what scraping is.
Be sure to find the mob gathering spot in "Heart of Sand City" on the second night. Yes, that's the weird-looking stronghold on the map. It's full of mage monsters and has low health and low defense. That is the most efficient place to brush reincarnation materials in the early stage, bar none. I actually measured that the experience per minute is about 15% higher than the main map in the wild. The key is that there is still a chance to drop the reincarnation core fragment, which will be used on the third day.
On the third day, the reincarnation system was opened. I suggest you just use the fragments you saved earlier to exchange for the Reincarnation Stone, don't save. After reincarnation, the form of skills has changed greatly, especially the release path of the ultimate move, which has changed from a straight line to a circle around itself. This means that the environmental requirements for your stance output are greatly reduced, and you can be more unrestrained in your face.
At this time you can try your first siege. There is no need to wait for the large army. Go to the flank of the north gate alone. There is a blind spot there, and the siege guards will not lock you in the first place. After reincarnation, the high attack speed combined with the position around the back, the speed of clearing the city gate alone is actually extremely impressive.
Finally, let's talk about a trap that most people will step on: strengthening the system. In the early stage, be sure not to spend all your strengthening stones on weapons. The price-performance ratio is extremely low and the failure rate is too high. I have calculated that in the first 50 levels, the benefits of enhanced helmets and shoes are 30% higher than those of weapons, because the benefits of fixed damage reduction at that stage are floating. It is much more useful to survive a round of damage than to hit a few hundred more points of output.
I followed this idea, and on the third night I was able to defeat the third wild map mini-boss alone, and the attack speed panel reached the top 5 level at the same level. Some people on the forum said that the game's numerical values are inflated and it's just a heavy krypton game. To be honest, I feel like it's a bit sour grapes. The key is to have the right idea. Once the attack speed is stacked up, free players will still have the opportunity to rush into the front row of the output list.
I'll write this much first. If any of you are stuck at a certain node, you can leave a message. I'll see it later and reply. This article should be used as a guidepost for newcomers. I hope you can be one step faster than me on the westward journey. 🍺
