At the end, you should have: Full (G) Rune Armour, Paladin Gloves, Elite Amulet of Strength,
The first thing you should do in this part of the story is to upgrade your Amulet of Strength into an Elite one, simply by farming more Mummies. On average you need to kill around a thousand of them.
You can wait to get the Paladin Gloves until after getting Rune Armor, or you can farm it now. At this point, you will use around 6 Lobster per Paladin kill, and the chance to get them is 1/171. Not too hard.
The next step is to farm the feared shiny Rune Knights, and upgrade your four armor pieces into (G) Rune pieces, for a total of 29% Damage Reduction with the Paladin Gloves. You will need a bunch of Gold and Silver Bars, farmed at Statue or at Purple Goo Monster to make headway towards Elite Amulet of Defence. Considering the amount of bars needed to upgrade this armour, you may wish to wait until Ancient armour instead, as (G) adamant armour is sufficient for clearing
(with a higher but still manageable HP requirement). You should get
and a second
. You should also consider getting the third set now, too. The last thing to get before moving onto the next section is a better weapon.
is your next stop for a Sunset Rapier, a great upgrade that will be the primary weapon up until Darksteel Dagger from Rancora Spider. Don't bother getting any Dragon Claw Fragments from Griffin yet as it will be awhile before you can obtain the necessary Infernal Cores to make it worthwhile. If you're lucky enough to get an Ancient Sword before the Sunset Rapier, then feel free to use it, as it will drastically reduce your food consumption and the associated food farming time. You'll probably only want to use it outside of dungeons, because the high burst damage from stronger enemies heavily reduces effectiveness of the lifesteal and makes the bonus damage impossible to reliably utilise.
