![]() For example, the Heir class has Slow* progression, High max level (the highest in the game, actually), the Challenge “Become Worthy,” and the GTC “Accept the Mantle.”Īspect: Last word in your character’s title. Class denotes the progression, max level, Challenge, God-Tier Challenge, and most of the mechanics your class operates under. Class: First word in your character’s title. Manual character creation gets a little technical. What I -will- tell you is what character combinations make for entertaining parties, and let you make the rest of the decisions for yourself. Now, I’m not going to give you the most broken combination possible- every other guide out there does that, and they give you a party that will wipe the floor with the final boss but is going to have some real fucking trouble with its first denizen. ![]() Yeah, good luck with that one, kids- sure, just this side of nothing’s going to kill your Heir, but a Rogue can’t WTS worth a damn, the Witch has a pretty lackluster set of debuffs to play with, and your Bard has nobody to SSC but himself.)

The user interface is a nightmarish mess of confusing terminology, inventory mismanagement can lose you the game before your first character ever leaves their room, and the only way to get an in-game tutorial more understandable than Nostradamus is to prototype a future self, one of the least intuitive aspects of the game. There’s no lying about it: Sburb’s learning curve is more or less vertical, and it’s part of why the game got such a murderous panning on release. If you’re a real masochist, you might even have gotten to your first Denizen before getting slaughtered, giving up, and running to the Internet for help. ![]() and lost your first several games to Death By Meteor.
