TIPS

Tips & Tricks

Habits that make expeditions consistent β€” pacing, targeting and squad discipline that turn coin-flip runs into reliable wins.

Pace & power

  • Get strong fast β€” the first two days decide the run.
  • Prioritise field bosses and Evergaols over trash for gear.
  • Level at every Site of Grace instead of hoarding runes you might lose.
  • Stay ahead of the Night's Tide; never fight the boss inside the storm.

Fighting the Nightlord

  • Always match your damage type to the Nightlord.
  • Save flasks, revives and Ultimates for the boss, not the run-up.
  • Coordinate revives and Ultimates with your squad.
  • Learn one attack tell per attempt rather than panic-rolling everything.

Survival habits

  • Roll through attacks with i-frames rather than backing away and eating the tail.
  • Keep an eye on the storm timer; reposition before it forces a panic run.
  • Don't fight two field bosses back-to-back without a heal and a Grace between.
  • Bank a level whenever you pass a Grace β€” dying with unspent runes is wasted power.
