This portion of the guide aims at getting the very entry barrier equipment items, outside of the familiars of course. Gear doesn't matter much at this point, prefer melee because it doesn't use resources. Use the melee weapon that provides the highest hit-chance. | This portion of the guide aims at getting the very entry barrier equipment items, outside of the familiars of course.

The monsters in the trickery temple deal a lot more damage than previous dungeons. On top of that, the enemies there have a reflect mechanic (where part of the damage the player deals is inflicted back upon the player), and a mechanic where the enemies' max hit is based on the player's max hit. All enemies in this dungeon are also magic-based. It is | The monsters in the trickery temple deal a lot more damage than previous dungeons. On top of that, the enemies there have a reflect mechanic (where part of the damage the player deals is inflicted back upon the player), and a mechanic where the enemies' max hit is based on the player's max hit. All enemies in this dungeon are also magic-based. It is therefore highly recommended to use the ranged combat style, preferably with [[Ranged#Javelins|javelins]] or [[Ranged#Throwing_Knives|throwing knifes]] to lower the player's max hit. | ||
Although the Trickery Temple also drops {{ItemIcon|Barrier Exalted Shard}} and {{ItemIcon|Siphoning Barrier Gem}}, due to the reflect and max hit mechanic, the Cult Grounds dungeon is prefered, as the player can focus much more on dealing damage, rather than having to deal with the max hit mechanic instead. | Although the Trickery Temple also drops {{ItemIcon|Barrier Exalted Shard}} and {{ItemIcon|Siphoning Barrier Gem}}, due to the reflect and max hit mechanic, the Cult Grounds dungeon is prefered, as the player can focus much more on dealing damage, rather than having to deal with the max hit mechanic instead. | ||

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 3,100 with Terran fully upgraded to (B). '''Depending on your choice in the next section, you do not need to fully upgrade Terran''' | The following gear is starter gear to farm cult imps for barrier.

Again, Terran is used in this recommended gear over Ragnar with the assumption that this will be (partially) upgraded into (B). | Again, Terran is used in this recommended gear over Ragnar with the assumption that this will be (partially) upgraded into (B). | ||
