Changing equipment sets to be able to fight each monster with Combat Triangle advantage can lower the required levels, especially {{Skill|Hitpoints}} required to clear the dungeon efficiently. The player should already have setups available from clearing each monster in the {{ZoneIcon|Lava Lake}}, but they will look similar to the following {{Skill|Magic}} build.
