What should I upgrade next?

Method-specific progression priorities

1

Trident of the swamp → Sanguinesti staff

Improve the primary damage role first; faster resolution leaves more attention for sanity.

Major upgrade
2

Virtus mask, robe top and robe bottom

Add the armour bonuses after the response to prayer sequences is reliable.

Moderate upgrade
3

Sanguinesti staff → Tumeken's shadow

Consider this only after recorded Lassar undercity trips show the smaller gain is worth its purchase cost.

Minor upgrade

Common mistakes

Avoidable causes of failed or inefficient trips

Ignoring sanity

Losing position during prayer sequences

Mishandling tentacle movement: Move through the correct safe sequence without crossing a danger line.
