This content is part of the Atlas of Discovery Expansion.

This article is a strategy guide for Cult Grounds.

This guide is meant for single clears and to enable idling with as low as possible requirements. Not to be the most effective method. Information on equipment, mechanics and strategies are on this page.

If you wish to tweak the Combat Simulator Exports yourself, they can be found here.

Standard Guide

Basic Guide

This is a Barrier dungeon introduced with the Atlas of Discovery Expansion, there is a general guide to this dungeon and a more in-depth look into Barrier combat in general in this guide. This page will go deeper into combat options, including when Throne of the Herald Expansion is owned and already completed.

This guide is not meant for optimal kills per hour but instead focuses on easily obtainable ways ranging from just passed God Dungeons to having beaten

Throne of the Herald to clear the dungeon effectively.

Requirements

Complete Trickery Temple
Find Lost Cursed Text

  Level 82
- Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Level 80

Continue using your Aeris God armour setup for this dungeon. These monsters do not have the mechanic where they base their max hit off of the player's max hit, a crossbow with bolts can be used. As soon as enough Barrier Exalted Shard and Siphoning Barrier Gem have been obtained to upgrade the first item, it is advised to go collect barrier dust. All of the individual armour pieces have the same passive effect, so the order in which they are upgraded doesn't matter. Start with the armour piece that costs the fewest Barrier Shards and Siphoning Gems (You can skip the helm for now if you've got the Shade Summoning set).

Item	Upgrade Cost
	4 Barrier Exalted Shard 2 Siphoning Barrier Gem
	10 Barrier Exalted Shard 5 Siphoning Barrier Gem
	6 Barrier Exalted Shard 3 Siphoning Barrier Gem
	5 Barrier Exalted Shard 5 Siphoning Barrier Gem

Once enough upgrade materials have been obtained, depending on the gear the player has, kill either

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Cult Imp or

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Cult Member. The benefit from killing Cult Members for barrier dust, is that only the Aeris set needs to be upgraded for maximum effect. However, the Cult Imp can potentially drop more barrier dust in a given hour. Especially if the player is using

Big ol Ron. Terran God armour is also required in the next sections of the guide.

Collect enough barrier dust to obtain 2,000 Imbued Dragonite Bar. Upgrade your armour piece and move back to the Cult Grounds dungeon until enough materials have been obtained for the next upgrade. Repeat this cycle until the full Aeris armour has been obtained. Finally, also upgrade a pair of (U) Ancient D-hide Vambraces as they are slightly better than the previously used Barrier Draining Gloves (Not required if you have the Shade Summon set).

Equipment

Recommended starting gear is similar to that of the previous dungeon.

You can mix and match the gear.

Dust Farming

The following gear is starter gear to farm cult imps for barrier. If you do not have Big ol Ron, simulate how many barrier dust you are receiving with your alternative, and potentially use ranged on cult members instead. It is recommended to upgrade the melee armour used, with a preference over upgrading Terran. This is because the extra Damage Reduction is required for the Underwater Ruins. The equipment below will result in roughly 2,400 barrier dust an hour. More or less can be obtained depending on the actual gear and other bonusses used. The amount of barrier dust an hour rises to around 5,200 with Terran fully upgraded to (B). Depending on your choice in the next section, you do not need to fully upgrade Terran.

Equipment

Again, Terran is used in this recommended gear over Ragnar with the assumption that this will be (partially) upgraded into (B). Start by upgrading the Terran Boots, Platelegs and Chestplate.

It is advised that the player stays at Cult Grounds until the

Summoner's Blessed Ring is obtained. This is also a good time to go back to

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Magic Mirror with the gear recommended here since the

Trickery Mirror is required for the next section. With fully upgraded Aeris (B) and the other barrier damage items, it shouldn't be a problem at all taking these down much faster than before. Lastly, if the player has finished

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Into the Mist at least once, and thus has obtained the passive slot, it's a good idea to go for another item. The enemies from now on will have a lot more barrier to take down. The

Barrier Burn Shield from the Trickery Temple can be used in the passive slot for a lot of extra barrier damage.

Endgame Setup

Equipment

These 2 gear setups are equal when it comes to chests per hour. You can substitute the Weakness Exploiter Cape with Ancient Infernal Cape for a very minor (0.3) chest per hour loss.

-The following gear is starter gear to farm cult imps for barrier. If you do not have Big ol Ron, simulate how many barrier dust you are receiving with your alternative, and potentially use ranged on cult members instead. It is recommended to upgrade the melee armour used, with a preference over upgrading Terran. This is because the extra [[Damage Reduction]] is required for the {{ZoneIcon|Underwater Ruins}}. The equipment below will result in roughly 2,400 barrier dust an hour. More or less can be obtained depending on the actual gear and other bonusses used. The amount of barrier dust an hour rises to around 5,200 with Terran fully upgraded to (B). '''Depending on your choice in the next section, you do not need to fully upgrade Terran'''.
+=Ancient Relics Guide=
+On top of no [[Pets]], {{Skill|Astrology}} or [[Potions]] this guide will also assume no [[Relics]]. <br>
+It is assumed the [[Golem_Territory/Guide#Ancient_Relics_Guide|Golem Territory Guide]] Ancient Relics section has been read.
+==Pre God Dungeon Guides==
+This Dungeon can not be done completely [[Idle]] at this point. Manual Eating will be required.
+The provided setup will take roughly 33 minutes to clear the dungeon. <br>
+And will use roughly {{ItemIcon|Lobster|qty=2450}}. <br>
+Due to the [[Barrier]] Mechanic and the general low Combat stats available at this point, rather high levels of {{Skill|Summoning}} will be required. <br>
+It is advised to use {{ItemIcon|Tortoise}} when doing this Dungeon out of the suggested order. <br>
+The gems for this Familiar can be obtained from {{Skill|Archaeology}} in the {{POIIcon|Ancient Market}} Dig Site. <br>
+Roughly 850 Tablets will be used per clear.
+* {{ItemIcon|Ancient Crossbow}} clears this dungeon roughly 13 minutes faster.
+* {{Synergy|Tortoise|Dragon}} clears this dungeon roughly 5-13 minutes faster, depending on weapon.
+* Prayers: {{PrayerIcon|Hawk Eye}} & {{PrayerIcon|Eagle Eye}}
-Again, Terran is used in this recommended gear over Ragnar with the assumption that this will be (partially) upgraded into (B). Start by upgrading the Terran Boots, Platelegs and Chestplate.

+===Gear===
+* With {{ItemIcon|Dragon Crossbow}}
+** With {{Synergy|Unicorn|Dragon}} the clear time is roughly 30 minutes. And will use roughly {{ItemIcon|Lobster|qty=1235}}.
+** With {{Synergy|Tortoise|Dragon}} the clear time is roughly 11 minutes. And will use roughly {{ItemIcon|Lobster|qty=300}}.

+** With {{Synergy|Tortoise|Dragon}} the clear time is roughly 9.5 minutes. And will use roughly {{ItemIcon|Lobster|qty=250}}.
-Point of Interest: {{POIIcon|Dark Waters}}
+* Prayers: {{PrayerIcon|Hawk Eye}} & {{PrayerIcon|Eagle Eye}}
-It is advised that the player stays at Cult Grounds until the {{ItemIcon|Summoner's Blessed Ring}} is obtained. This is also a good time to go back to {{MonsterIcon|Magic Mirror}} with the gear recommended [[#Trickery Temple|here]] since the {{ItemIcon|Trickery Mirror}} is required for the next section. With fully upgraded Aeris (B) and the other barrier damage items, it shouldn't be a problem at all taking these down much faster than before.

-Lastly, if the player has finished {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}} at least once, and thus has obtained the [[Combat Passive Slot|passive slot]], it's a good idea to go for another item. The enemies from now on will have a lot more barrier to take down. The {{ItemIcon|Barrier Burn Shield}} from the [[#Trickery Temple|Trickery Temple]] can be used in the passive slot for a lot of extra barrier damage.
