System map

Nine layers, one run loop

Waves and loot feed the skill tree, Jobs, abilities, crafting, mining, Shaping, Masteries, and Guardian Perks. The systems guide shows where each layer fits without inventing unlock numbers.

Build decisions

Choose by the question in front of you

Jobs, upgrades, and crafting are connected. These routes keep each decision narrow enough to test on the next wave.

Which Archer job fits?

Understand the five-job layer and evaluate what a job changes in combat.

What should I upgrade?

Separate damage, survival, movement, and regeneration before spending.

Is this gear worth keeping?

Compare crafted bows and armor against the blocker in your current run.

Launch problems look similar until you separate save data, inventory, interface, and input. Pick one to narrow the next safe check.

Selling items

If a sell action is missing or unclear, verify the inventory screen and current build first; do not discard gear as a substitute.
