Ancient Relics

This guide is written around the restrictions of the Ancient Relics game mode.

The Ancient Relics game mode restricts the players maximum levels for combat skills to to 10 plus 5 times the number of dungeons completed. For this dungeon, the players combat skills will be capped at a maximum of 10, and the guide will assume all non-combat skills are of a similar level.

Regardless of combat style or game mode,

Shop.

If you're playing Ancient Relics you will need to manual eat this dungeon just like almost every other dungeon. The idle requirements are technically possible but very impractical.

Equipment

Unsurprisingly, the players options for completing the very first dungeon are sparse, and the benefits for fully kitting out the character are lacking. However, for the ardent adventurer with some time to spare, the following is the best equipment available without wasting time grinding for items that will be replaced almost immediately.

Golbin Thief, made in

Summoning is a large boost to damage for any combat style, which can especially help with taking down the dungeon's boss.
Bronze Gloves, made in

Smithing is a small boost to melee defence (and melee attack, for melee builds) while not compromising on magic or ranged accuracy.

Magic
