Into the Mist/Guide

There are a number of ways

Into the Mist

can be completed. In general, waves 1-20 are best completed with your best Magic gear and Ancient Magicks or actively switching to take advantage of Combat Triangle bonuses. It's highly recommended that once you reach the final boss, you take the time to calculate the DR values and maximum hits per attack of each phase. Eating strategies can generally solve the final bosses and aid you in learning when to deal damage and when to survive, but it's useful to know what attack might kill you with your exact gear and levels. For all phases of the dungeon, as long as you do not get instantly killed by one attack (one shot), you can most likely complete the dungeon with the appropriate weapon.

Eating Patterns

There are 3 different eating patterns used in this guide. It's important to note that this dungeon only needs to be completed once, so the strategy is not about completing the dungeon as fast as possible, but rather not dying so you can complete it at least once. It is far more important to ensure you have enough HP to survive an attack than not resetting your attack timer through manual eating.

  1. Autoeat — let autoeat heal you and do not interrupt your attack.
  2. Eat if not full

    HP
    — eat if you are not full HP. Then let autoeat heal you if the attack is a multihit attack.
  3. Hold Enter to Eat — if you click on your food to eat manually, you will target your equipped food. You might see a bold grey box around your food. If you hold the Enter key on your keyboard, it will automatically try to eat each tick, and automatically eat when damaged. Do not let go until the attack is completed.

Eating patterns to follow generally are for Shadowburst, hold eat; for Fallen Light, autoeat.

90 HP

, you will need approximately 2% DR or more to achieve this. You will be damaging this phase to 1 HP through recoil damage and finishing it off with a final attack. Ensure   Diamond Luck Potions are active, equip any 1-handed ranged weapon, equip one or both of a   Gold Sapphire Ring and   Recoil Shield, turn on

for accuracy — you do not want to use

as you want to be hit to reflect damage, and start the fight. As long as you do not die to one single hit, you can hold eat to survive until the end of the phase. Since Phase 2 does not heal, it will be damaged until 1 HP, as recoil damage can't kill a monster. Eventually, you will hit with your ranged weapon of choice and finish Phase 2.

Ahrenia
