Strategy

A practical step-by-step plan

1

Collect a combat batch

Use the flail and Salve amulet against Fiyr shades, then bank enough remains to make the pyre stage efficient.

2

Prepare magic pyre logs

Use sacred oil on magic logs and include both inputs in the cost of every cremation.

3

Cremate for silver keys

Burn Fiyr remains with magic pyre logs, collect the resulting silver keys and use the correct shade-catacomb doors.

4

Value the whole loop

Measure combat, cremation and chest opening together rather than presenting the shade kill alone as the method's profit.

YOUR ESTIMATE

Profitability and projections

The Wiki Estimate seeds loot and supply fields from current market inputs when available. Every assumption remains editable and your saved values take priority.

The calculator will update if the selected Wiki method provides a usable average loot value. You can enter your own value at any time.

Kill-count projections will appear after an average loot value is available.

What should I upgrade next?

Method-specific progression priorities

1

Ivandis flail -> blisterwood flail

The vampyre weapon improves the remains-collection stage without changing pyre costs.

Major upgrade
2

Salve amulet (e) -> Salve amulet (ei)

The imbued version preserves the undead damage bonus for the combat batch.

Moderate upgrade
3

Add a flamtaer bag and flamtaer bracelet

These optional activity tools improve temple repair and sacred-oil preparation rather than pretending luxury armour raises chest value.

Minor upgrade
Upgrade ROIEnter upgrade values to calculate

Common mistakes

Avoidable causes of failed or inefficient trips

Ignoring remains collection

Losing position during pyre preparation

Mishandling key progression: Track chest-key results separately from ordinary combat drops.
