Vortex Gaming

· Regardless of which season mechanic you choose, a level 1 pet is sufficient for efficiency, and it's even okay to play without one.
· We recommend trying out each mechanic yourself to find the one that best suits you.
· Especially in Tier 7, item drop rates are low, so it's best to reach Tier 8 or higher as quickly as possible.

· Boss Rush can be played without a pet and is particularly recommended for the Tier 7 stage. However, item drop rates are low in Tier 7, making it difficult to utilize season mechanics.
· The main income source in Boss Rush is 'Netherrealm Essence,' used to re-roll map mods.
· Additionally, you can obtain rare and expensive unique items from boss drops, such as 'Precision Gems' (similar to awakened versions) or the 'Heart of Thunder' from 'Thunder Wave.'

· Black Sale is a mechanic that drops 'Hero Memories.'
· There are two main farming methods:
- Farming Memory Scraps and Memory Threads: Obtain materials to upgrade Hero Memories and grant additional mods.
- Farming Whispers of Lethargy: Obtain Hero Memories directly. These are used to equip in the Hero Tree to enhance stats and level up traits.
· It's advisable to focus on upgrading Hero Memories in the early game, and they become cheaper to purchase later in the season.

· Lunaria has no inherent talent tree, allowing for flexible point allocation.
· Activate the Lunaria mechanic by farming Compasses, which are relatively expensive in-game.
· A regular Compass is worth about 50 FE, and a more common one around 2 FE.
· This mechanic provides a significant amount of raw currency, and since monsters are somewhat strong, it requires slightly higher damage than Boss Rush.

· Sand Lord is a mechanic that provides passive income and works well with other mechanics.
· Materials obtained through this mechanic are used for 'Anointing' on belts, and some anointments are very expensive.
· You can send Gliders and Airships to Sand Islands to obtain various items, with purple items being particularly valuable at around 40 FE each.
· It's an efficient method, providing steady income with minimal impact on mapping time.

· Mist Bill drops 'Activation Media,' which are similar to Meta Gems.
· 'Inertia' Activation Media has the effect of automatically casting spells while standing still.
· This mechanic can be run concurrently with other mechanics and is particularly useful for minion builds.

· Borax is a card game-style mechanic that requires proficiency and is recommended for Tier 8 and above.
· This mechanic provides a significant amount of raw currency and crafting materials.
· 'Sutures' are particularly expensive and are used in crafting 'Boraxianics.' These allow you to transfer unique item mods to other items, making them crucial for all builds.

· The most recommended pets for free-to-play users are Lunaria, Black Sale, and Sand Lord.
· Lunaria and Black Sale are particularly efficient even with a level 1 pet, and we recommend obtaining them through free draws.
· Sand Lord also offers significant value even with a level 1 pet.
· Additionally, items from the exchange shops obtained through 'Supreme Showdown' and 'City Defense' are also useful.

· The 'Supreme Showdown' exchange shop allows you to choose desired mechanics by playing for free over 3 seasons.
· The 'City Defense' exchange shop offers Battle Pets, with the choice depending on the player's build.
· For elemental builds, the purple Battle Pet serves as a good all-rounder.

· The in-game Meta Value Chain is crucial, accounting for about half of the game's content.
· For the Borax mechanic, it's important to learn the card game rules to achieve consistent results.
· You can access the game through the link in the video description, and an event offering Gold Notes upon reaching Tier 8 is planned.
