Tutorial:Ultimate Guide


 * See Forum Post: How to go from early game to absolute endgame - The Ultimate Guide

Early Game

 * 1) Leave your island. You can do /hub (or alternatively bridge over).
 * 2) Buy a Promising Pickaxe, Rookie Hoe and Golden Axe. You can get the Promising Pickaxe from the Mine Merchant, the Rookie Hoe from the Farm Merchant, and the Golden Axe by crafting 2 sticks and 3 gold from the Mine Merchant.
 * 3) Get (Mining in the Gold Mine),  (Farming wheat in the Hub),  (Breaking trees in The Park) skills to level 7.
 * 4) NPC Flip. (Buy Items from NPCs and sell the to the Bazaar). Most people do Packed Ice and Sand.
 * 5) One of the best armor sets for early game is Mushroom Armor, as it gives tripled stats at night.
 * 6) Most events in the calender are extremely good money making methods as they require almost no money to participate in. Some events you can do in the early game to mid game are Diana's Mythological Ritual event (Buy ancestral spade and griffin pet from Diana when she's mayor) and the Spooky Festival, which occurs Autumn 29 - 31, in game time.
 * 7) Get some minion slots (Craft more unique minions). You should have at least 7 minion slots.
 * 8) Place some Redstone Minions, since the Talisman Bag upgrades are going to be really important.
 * 9) Work on some easy talismans (Buy the ones from the Adventurer)
 * 10) Events are extremely good for moneymaking in the early game as they require little to no money to participate in.
 * 11) You can do Diana's Mythological Ritual event, which occurs when she's elected as mayor. Buy a Common Griffin Pet and Ancestral Spade from her for 40k total and start looking for Griffin Burrows. Griffin Feathers go for around 50k on Bazaar, which is very good as they are an almost guarenteed drop.
 * 12) The Spooky Festival is also very good for money making. In the night of Autumn 29 - 31, go to the Graveyard and kill as many spooky mobs as possible. During the day, kill either zombies in the graveyard or spiders in the Spider's Den for more drops.
 * 13) Do the Season of Jerry event (you can get up to by selling Gifts from the Defend Jerry's Workshop event) Make sure to kill as many mobs as possible to earn the most money.
 * 14) Get a maxed End Stone Sword reforged to Spicy and Hardened Diamond Armor. You can get these sets from the Auction House, or alternatively, you can buy the materials and ask someone to craft them for you. Make sure the sword has Sharpness V on it, as this will make killing endermen later easier.
 * 15) Get skill to level 12 by killing Crypt Ghouls in the Hub Crypts. The Crypts are located in a cave near the void and the Forest. Note that you should put all of your Coins in the bank, so that you don't lose them when you die to the Crypt Ghouls.
 * 16) Now buy Ender Armor reforged to Fierce. Make sure you get the Ender Armor with and . If you cannot get  yet, you have to buy some Grand Experience Bottles from the Bazaar, then enchant some items with an Enchantment Table.
 * 17) Get as much Fairy Souls as possible. TimeDeo has a walkthrough for all Fairy Souls. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mU7j8IBvSpk. Note: Some Fairy Souls require Ender Pearls to reach.

Mid Game

 * 1) Start to AH flip or Bazaar flip if you haven't started already. This will increase the number of coins in your bank account, and will be used to obtain better gear later.
 * 2) Grind upper-level Endermen until you are at least 18. Now grab an Aspect of the Dragons reforged to spicy. (Alternatively, you could get a Warped Aspect of the End without Combat 18, if you have the money to buy it. However, if you do choose to do this, your critical chance will be slightly lower.)
 * 3) Do some Zealot Grinding. (Unless you can't one shot zealots yet in which case use Potions to increase Strength and Critical Chance, or get more talismans or use a talisman optimizer)
 * 4) Get Young Dragon Armor with Farmer Boots or Rancher's Boots. Alternatively, if you are planning to use a God Potion, get a full young dragon set, as the cap will be increased by 100.
 * 5) Sell Summoning Eyes that you obtained from Zealot Grinding
 * 6) A griffin pet works extremely well for stats; the uncommon and above versions grants strength and regeneration effects, both of which are extremely useful. They are only about on the Auction House, make sure it is Uncommon rarity.
 * 7) A Flower of Truth is one of the best weapons for mid game as it has no skill requirement (unlike the Livid Dagger). Although being less expensive at around 3.5m, it still does nearly the same amount of damage as any other mid game weapon.
 * 8) Upgrade your armor as well, to either superior, which is quite expensive, or 3/4 Shadow Assasin with a Zombie Knight Chestplate, all reforged to fierce. If you can't afford these sets yet, you should save up money from events, flipping or grinding as they will last throughout mid-game and into early late game.
 * 9) Focus on more talismans and minions for some passive money income (at least 25% talisman completion and 12 minion slots). ThirtyVirus has a tutorial on talismans. You can complete half of the tutorial. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MV8vo68Y2VI. For minion slots, you can craft as many minions to Tier 5, or alternatively get the Minion Slots upgrade from Elizabeth,
 * 10) Use a Minion Spreadsheet to find a minion that consistently makes a good amount of money. Alternatively, continue using collection minions to get more upgrades and recipes. Snow Minions and Clay Minions are commonly used, as they make a decent amount of money.
 * 11) Start doing Slayer Quests. Maddox the Slayer is underneath the Bar.
 * 12) Having at least half of the Fairy Souls is recommended, but not required..

Now that you have killed some Dragons and gotten level 3 - 4 on all slayers you are:

Late Game
Now this is going to be a lot of money grinding
 * 1) Grind tens of million using any method. Make sure that you like your money-making method, so you will be more motivated to do it, and therefore make more money. Most people choose to Auction Flip, Bazaar Flip, or grind Zealots.
 * 2) Get better Pets, such as Blue Whale, Baby Yeti, Sheep, and Tiger.
 * 3) Do Dungeons (a lot). Do Dungeons until you complete Floor 5.
 * 4) Get Frozen Blaze, Necron's Armor and Livid Dagger. For Frozen Blaze, you need a Blaze Pet.
 * 5) Get Wolf Slayer 6 and Mana Flux Power Orb or preferably better version.
 * 6) Minimally 50% talisman completion, consider using Recombobulator on the legendaries.
 * 7) Get your Slayer levels higher (level 5 - 6 on all slayers exept voidgloom, get voidgloom to 3-4).
 * 8) Your skill average level should be at least 25 at this point.

End Game

 * 1) Max collections one by one using collection minions.
 * 2) Get any of the Wither Armor variants. It might be tempting to get these earlier but it's not worthwhile.
 * 3) Get any of the Necron's Blade variants.
 * 4) Get all Slayers to level 8 or 9. Zombie Slayer level 8's perk is actually really good, so it might be worth getting earlier.
 * 5) Do any of the methods you have found to get more money on the last few things you are missing.
 * 6) Consider grinding skills you have ignored to this point.

Absolute End Game

 * 1) Get everything in the game.
 * 2) Do everything in the game.
 * 3) Grab an Emerald Blade.
 * 4) Grab all the pets.
 * 5) Max everything out.
 * 6) Flex with your millions of damage.

Nice, now you know what to do

Final Tips

 * With every new Dungeon Floor added, the Skill will become easier to level up. Because of this, it is not recommended to grind Dungeons too much and focus on other things too.
 * Most importantly, these are not rules for how to play the game, simply a very efficient means of getting to End Game. The main purpose of video games is having fun, and if building your island or experimenting with overpriced Items is something you enjoy, don't stop yourself from doing it just because others don't. Don't let people bully you because your Skill Average is low or because your networth is 1/2 of theirs, people who take the game too seriously are the last people you should be getting advice from.
 * As time goes on, many of these steps will become outdated, until another hero comes and update this guide
