  • Dark And Darker: Best Gold Farming Locations And Route Planning In Goblin Caves

    Posted: Aug 30, 2023

    Dark and Darker just did a fresh server wipe, and now is a good time to get gear and gold quickly. So, here we’re going to cover the best drop locations to rare gear in Goblin Caves to get your stash full of gold as quickly as possible.

    Right now, this guide’s sorting doesn’t take any rank into account, since your spawns are random. So you just do your best to remember these locations. This way, no matter what spawn locations you get, you can plan your route as efficiently as possible while taking maximum profit into account.

    Northwest And East Ends - Giant Centipedes

    First, let’s figure out which enemies to kill and where to kill them to get some rare trinkets. These trinkets are located on the two Giant Centipedes at the northwestern and eastern ends of the map.

    According to the data, you have a 35% chance of getting Ring or Necklace in these two places, but the northwest corner is preferable. Because in addition to the occasional utility items, there is also a large chest and a Shrine Of Health. Here’s an example of items that me and my friends drop after killing Giant Centipedes.

    Central - Skeleton Champion

    If you want rare weapons and gear, kill Skeleton Champion that spawns in the central module or turn on the lever. Because a second Skeleton Champion may reappear behind the hidden door.

    The best way to kill them is to lure out the attack chain, then return to the attack on cooldown. Skeleton Champion usually drops some rare weapons and armor, and has a slight chance of dropping the epic.

    Southeast Side - Giant Worm

    Now you can also summon a Giant Worm on the southeast side of the map. But currently it only has a 2% chance of dropping Old Rusty Key, so it’s really not worth farming. So I’ll skip this guy and spend this time fighting more worthy enemies elsewhere.

    South Side - Mummies

    Honestly, I also skip Goblins unless I need XP or they’re in the way. Because fighting them doesn’t make much sense. If you’re focused on killing for profit, you can go find Mummies, which can be found in the lower part of the map.

    Killing Mummies has a chance to drop rare gems and trinkets, and it’s definitely worth the time to kill them. Because gems that reach the rarity level are always worth more than other dungeon treasures and trinkets of the same size. This means that you can get higher Dark and Darker Gold returns from it.

    I’m guessing this will be nerfed in the future. Because it’s a veritable goldmine. All you need to do is kill Goblin Mage and two random Goblins and gain access to 36 slots. Each of these slots has a chance to spawn rare trinkets or utility items.

    Top Right - Death Beetles

    Another suitable spot is the upper right corner of the map, where there are some Death Beetles, Goblins, and treasure chests. But what’s really special about this location is that these item spawns have a high chance of spawning random rare items. Of course, this could be an artifact of play testing. But always check here as I’ve gotten some high value rare items out of it.

    Small Treasure Room On The West Side

    The last location is a small room at the bottom of the western module after clearing out a Goblin Mage and a few Warriors. You’ll find up to 12 random treasures scattered across pots and tables on the floor. It’s not the highest value room, but has a higher concentration of loot than any other area on the map. If you need XP too, there are plenty of Goblins around that you can drag through traps and kill quickly.

    That’s all the gold farming locations I’ve found in Goblin Caves. You can integrate at least one of these hotspots along these routes to make sure you can walk away with an item for sale or an inventory full of treasure. Overall, I hope you are off to a good start.

  • Dark And Darker: How To Upgrade Bard From Zero To Hero In Goblin Caves?

    Posted: Aug 18, 2023

    Today I want to share here how I upgraded Bard from zero to Hero in Goblin Caves. If you want to learn more about this, then this guide is a must for you. It covers all the spells I use and tips to look out for.

    Enhanced Damage

    First, we’ll take Rapier Mastery and Interaction Speed. This can be helpful if you want to grab some loot early in Goblin Caves. Also, I chose a Weapon Mastery. Because I might run into some PVP situations, or even just clear some Goblins.

    But the biggest obstacle with Bard is that you can’t do any damage. So maybe Piercing Shrill and Shriek of Weakness are a better way for Bard to clear the mobs. But it’s really hard for you to do that at the beginning of PVP.

    So we’re going to use everything to enhance ourselves as usual. You need to get your timing right here, as it only deals 26 damage to the enemy’s head. So it’s a tough profession.

    We want to get Bard consistent damage output in the first step, using Shriek of Weakness to make clearing PVE easier. Time is your number one enemy in any situation. Because you won’t have time to do all of this after clearing PVE loot chests. Especially if you’re going to lose time with some PVP distractions.

    Unchained Harmony

    So the other thing I did was I took Unchained Harmony, which let us open chests a little faster to help you get your loot faster. It also helps you open that door while dodging PVE, which keeps you from getting stuck in an interaction or spell wheel. So you can use it to escape a lot of unruly situations.

    In fact, it’s a pretty solid spawn, and you’ll get a lot of locked loot boxes. The only thing that really annoys you is that the monsters are outside. You know the boundaries of this room and you can add planted things in the middle. But we can’t do that with Bard because they’re hard to survive.

    Note that we can play songs at this point. Because you get a 120 second cooldown on popping. That’s much better than 90 seconds and means you don’t need to send the song as often. And when we start Charismatic Performance Perk, it’s a must-choose in pretty much any setup we use.

    We might leave some PVP alone on this part of the map so far. Considering it’s a very busy corridor, I don’t want to continue doing this. Because we want to strengthen ourselves.

    Kill Spider Mummy

    Also, I’ve noticed that Spider Mummy in show Beta or Early Access is pretty tough. Their attack speed is a little faster, which can be a bit frustrating when you’re using a sword for a spike. Because you can’t always kill with one hit.

    When you start looting the jars around, these Spiders Mummy will start attacking you. We can open the jar after killing them. There are a lot of little gems and stuff here. You can also earn handsome Dark and Darker Gold by selling them.

    Avoid Monster Damage

    It’s still pretty quiet on PVP side of what we said before going into this next wooden door. Here we can know that the advantage of playing the song early is that the enhancement will not change its duration. You still get full value. And Harmonic Shield can neutralize of damage from that bow for us.

    When we heard footsteps near the left, this could have been the start of the confusion. Our best course of action is to run. Since the monster here has a Prot Bubble on it once it bursts, it will drain our remaining 80 health points.

    We just need to get out of here. Light fighters here mean absolutely nothing. These monsters can still easily kill us with that armed sword. So successfully taking these loot away is the most important thing. Because once we are killed by monsters, we will end up with nothing.

    Finally, we have two weapons: Hand Crossbow and Survival Bow, as well as some items you get on other chests in Goblin Caves. These meet the requirements for Bard to upgrade to Hero.

    The above is the entire process of Bard successfully upgrading from zero to Hero in Goblin Caves. One thing to note is that the first thing you do is play your tune and upgrade your sword afterward. Whatever your personal preference, Arming Sword or Rapier are worth picking. Good luck.
