A simplistic order for completing combat (WIP):

# Farm {{MonsterIcon|Abyssal Cow}}

# Complete {{ZoneIcon|Depths of Woe}}

==={{Icon|Combat|notext=true|nolink=true}} Gear===

Recommended gear to get before starting

Enhancements are very useful for both non-combat skilling and combat. They are obtained from [[Strongholds]]. Before starting {{ItA}} it is recommended that you acquire all four {{Melvor}} melvor realm enhancements:

* {{ItemIcon|Undead_Enhancement_(Superior)|Undead Enhancement (Superior)}}  

* {{ItemIcon|Dragon_Enhancement_(Superior)|Dragon Enhancement (Superior)}}  

* {{ItemIcon|Magic_Enhancement_(Superior)|Magic Enhancement (Superior)}}  

* {{ItemIcon|Gods_Enhancement_(Superior)|Gods Enhancement (Superior)}}  

{{ItA}} [[Strongholds|Abyssal Stronghold]] enhancements will be acquired as progress is made in the expansion, all four are useful.

==Atlas of Discovery Combat==

===Early Game Atlas of Discovery===

After collecting the first three god sets from: {{ZoneIcon|Air God Dungeon}}, {{ZoneIcon|Water God Dungeon}} and {{ZoneIcon|Earth God Dungeon}} the player will be well equipped to start combat. Immediate goals are to begin gathering {{Icon|Barrier}} damaging equipment. The first gear the player will get is actually from the {{POIIcon|Ancient Market}} in {{Skill|Archaeology}}. Remember {{Skill|Cartography}} and {{Skill|Archaeology}} are crucial to progressing {{AoD}} [[Atlas of Discovery Expansion|Atlas Of Discovery]] combat.

# Excavate {{ItemIcon|Old Summoning Amulet}} and {{ItemIcon|Ring of Summoning}} from {{POIIcon|Ritual Site}}  

# Farm {{ItemIcon|Barrier Gem}} from {{POIIcon|Ancient Market}} to create {{ItemIcon|Tortoise}} (you only need one for {{SlotIcon|gem}} gem slot if you have a lot of {{Synergy|Spectre|Spider}} already)

# {{ItemIcon|Lesser Summoning Amulet}} from {{MonsterIcon|Blind Ghost}}

# Craft {{ItemIcon|Ring of Barrier Touch}}  

# {{ItemIcon|Sapping Barrier Gem}} and {{ItemIcon|Barrier Sapping Gloves}} from {{MonsterIcon|Vampiric Bat}}

# Excavate {{ItemIcon|Ancient Silk}} from {{POIIcon|Bazaar}} to craft {{ItemIcon|Ancient Infernal Cape}}

# Optionally; Max all skills for the {{ItemIcon|Max Skillcape}}

# Excavate {{ItemIcon|Ancient Stone Tablet}} from {{POIIcon|Monuments}}

The helmet for both should be skipped if you have the {{ItemIcon|Hood of Shade Summon|notext=true}} summon set from {{TotH}}. {{ItemIcon|Barrier Dust}} can be farmed from either {{MonsterIcon|Cult Imp}} or {{MonsterIcon|Cult Member}}

# Equip {{ItemIcon|Summoner's Blessed Ring}} from {{ZoneIcon|Cult Grounds}} unless you are using the {{ItemIcon|Ring of Phantom Summon|notext=true}} summon set from {{TotH}}

===Late Game Atlas of Discovery===

The main goal of late game is to find {{POIIcon|Melantis}}, collect the three weapons from {{ZoneIcon|Underwater Ruins}}, finishing {{ZoneIcon|Underwater City}} and then acquiring endgame clear speed items for the subsequent {{PetIcon|Lumi|notext=true}} pet farms.

# Optionally; Finish {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}} at least once for the {{SlotIcon|passive}} passive slot

# Discover {{POIIcon|Melantis}} through following a trail of clues (solution [[Melantis Clue 1|here]] for lazy people)

# {{ItemIcon|Engulfing Vortex Longbow}} from {{MonsterIcon|Mermaid Archer}}. {{ItemIcon|Devouring Barrier Gem}} in your {{SlotIcon|gem}} gem slot. Optionally; {{ItemIcon|Water Pulse Staff}} from {{MonsterIcon|Merman}} and {{ItemIcon|Hasty Trident}} from {{MonsterIcon|Merman Guard}} can be acquired but they are easily replaced

# {{ZoneIcon|Underwater City}} ([[Underwater City/Guide|guide]] higly reccomended!). Equip {{ItemIcon|Eradicating Gloves (m)}} as soon as they are found (for those using {{ItemIcon|Hood of Shade Summon|notext=true}} summon set play around with the [[Scripting_and_Extensions/Combat_Simulator|Combat Simulator]] to decide whether to use them or not)

# {{ItemIcon|Devouring Barrier Shield}} for {{SlotIcon|shield}} shield slot and {{ItemIcon|Knight's Summoning Defender}} for {{SlotIcon|passive}} passive slot are both reccomended for further farming
