âš”ī¸ Best Starting Weapon

Staff of Nyx is the best weapon for beginners. Its long range and fast attack speed give you safety while learning enemy patterns. Upgrade to the Apollo aspect first.

💡 Tip: Hold the Attack button for Omega attacks. Omega Staff fires a powerful projectile that pierces enemies.

👹 Boss Strategies

Hecate (Region 1 Boss): Stay at mid-range. Dodge her sweeping staff attacks by dashing through, not away. Attack during her circle AoE windup.

Scylla (Region 2 Boss): Focus the drummer first, then the guitarist. Save your Cast for when all three are grouped.

💎 Resource Farming

Prioritize these resources early: Silver (weapon upgrades), Ashes (Arcana cards), Psyche (Grasp upgrades).
