Check out the Complete Story Walkthrough for tips on how to complete the Campaign.
Treasure Troves
Treasure Troves are a way to super-charge your leveling experience. They give vastly more experience than regular zones and yield exclusive Legendary items. You need to complete each of them once for a Talent Point. For an easier leveling experience, you repeat the Treasure Trove until you're 8-10 levels above the zone, then rush through the next few areas. Follow your side quest to find the Treasure Trove locations.
Keep an eye out for the following Legendary items as you clear Treasure Troves.
- New Ear Hills (L7): Look out for Desire of Survival and Rock Lizard's Skull.
- Nectar Valley (L16): Look out for Dragon Scale Shoes.
- Dawn Avenue (L27): Look out for Chain of Resistance and Ice Pulse.
- Sanctuary of Solitude (L35): Look out for Interlocking Soul.
- Silver Sands' End (L44): Look out for Omniscient Prototype and Lonesome.
- Hall of Grandiosity (L54): Look out for Omniscient Prototype and Lonesome.
Every Treasure Trove has a small chance to drop Lonesome which boosts you damage significantly if you equip only 1 ring and Omniscient Prototype which provides around 120 Energy allowing you to equip additional Support Skills.
Leveling Tips and Tricks
- Your first active skill slot (top left in the Skills menu) is your "Main Skill," this matters because many items and Hero Traits have effects that only apply to the Main Skill.
- If you're ever in doubt of where to go, click the campaign quest on the left of your screen and a golden path shows you the way.
- This guide assumes you get most of your levels through Treasure Troves and rush to the objectives in other zones for maximum efficiency.
- When allocating Pact Points, prioritize Life first, then select Damage nodes until you fill the section. If you have leftover points, put them into Drop nodes as you begin farming the Netherrealm.
- Complete all 10 Levels of the Hero Forge to unlock all of your Hero Trait abilities and gain 6 additional Talent Points.
- All support gems become available from the Skill Shop at level 50. At this stage cross reference with the embeds to make sure you're set up for the Netherrealm.
- In Chapter 3 gear you find comes with varying amounts of Energy, after changing your gear, be sure to go to the Energy Menu under Skills to reassign missing Energy.
Equipment & Stat Priorities
Look for these Offensive stats:
- Minion Skill Level

Look for these Defensive stats:

Core Skill
- Use Summon Machine Guard and Summon Spider Tank to deal damage. Using 2 different minion Skills allows you to summon 6 minions total by summoning 3 Machine Guards and 3 Spider Tanks.
- With Leap Attack you move faster through the zones. Support it with Quick Mobility for even faster movement.
- Use Dark Gate to teleport your Minions to you and to buff yourself. The Command buff gives additional Minion damage for a short duration.
- Machine Army increases your Minion's attack speed for a short duration with increased effect depending on amount of Minions you have summoned.
- Use Compound Source to heal yourself.

Talents
Move to slider at the bottom to interact with the Tool
God of Machines
This is your core Talent Tree where you put your first 24 points before moving onto Machinist, then returning here to allocate additional points later.
Machinist
Allocate 32 points in Machinist. Boss helps reach number of 6 Minions. Kinetic Conversion provides Barrier and reduced damage taken while moving.
Steel Vanguard
Finally, allocate 32 points in Steel Vanguard. Many Minor and Major talents in this Talent Tree reduce Sealed Mana which is required to fit all of your Auras. Then their effectiveness is increased thanks to Reflection. Knowledgeable increases the effectiveness of Machine Army and Dark Gate.
There are tons of different Talent Trees to explore, if you want to learn more about this robust system check out our Talent Tree Guide.
Traits, Relics and Memories
Hero Traits
Level 45: Unlock Charge Forward to make sure you have 100% uptime of Overload buff. Once it has enough duration to be active all the time without it swap to All In.
Level 75: Choose Last Stand to prevent Minions from dying while they have Overload. This also gives your Minions a +50% additional damage bonus as they are always missing 99.99% of their maximum Life due to Recklessness.
Level 90: Select Rest & Ready to ensure you have 100% uptime on your Overload and provide Minions with 35% additional Attack and Cast Speed. If your Minions are not attacking fast enough to always be on low life use Go for Broke instead.
Relics and Memories
Look for any combination of the following stats on your Hero Relics and Memories;
| Hero Relic | Hero Memories |
| % Overload Effect | % Overload Effect |
| % Overload Effect for every Minion that you have | % Overload Duration |
| % Overload Cooldown Recovery Speed | Upon activating an Empower Skill, instantly gain (15-18) Command points. After 5 seconds, lose one of your most Recent Minions. |
| Upon activating Empower Skill, target the highest rarity enemy within a 10-meter range. Minions prioritize attacking the target and deal an additional +(16-20)% damage to it, lasting for 3 seconds. | Each time a new Synthetic Troop minion is summoned, gain an additional +(3-4)% minion damage, lasting 20 seconds, stacking up to (8-10) layers. |

The Netherrealm
Racing through your Netherrealm quests as quickly as possible results in you becoming under leveled for the required zones to progress further, stay within 3 levels of the zones you're completing to avoid a harsh experience penalty. Check out our How to Progress the Netherrealm if you're unsure of anything.
Here's a list of things to do while progressing the early stages of the Netherrealm;
- Level 60, The Trade House is unlocked. Be sure to read and understand our Trade House for Beginners Guide before making any big purchases.
- Higher item levels of gear come with higher quantities of Energy. Look to improve your current gear with items that have increased Energy so that you can use more Support Skills.
- Utilize Prototype Crafting and Enchanting to greatly increase the power of non-legendary gear you come across. It costs very low amounts of Flame Dust and Flame Sand to lock 1 good affix in place and reroll up to 4 new modifiers.
- If you don't have enough mana to use all of your Auras get Divinity Slates with -Sealed Mana modifiers.
Transitioning to Endgame
Weapon
- Look for the following modifiers on your weapon:
- Minion/Active Skill Level
- Minion Damage
- Minion Attack Speed
- Minion Critical Strike Damage
- Minion Critical Strike Chance
- Chance for Minions to Deal Double Damage
- Craft the items using prototype crafting until you have the Minion or Active Skill Level modifier as well as 3 of the other modifiers listed.
- Enchant the item with a 5th modifier.
Remaining Gear
Focus on crafting the remainder of your Armor and Jewelry with the following goals in mind;
- Cap all of your Resistances at the 60% maximum.
- Have a healthy Life pool.
- Increase your Minions Damage
Legendary Items
Leveling
- Interlocking Soul - Remember that anytime you use a Summon skill you lose 5% Life.
- To counter this invest into Life Regeneration on gear, use Rejuvenation and Magical Source.
- With enough regeneration you can dual wield Interlocking Souls.

As you complete the Netherrealm be sure to farm the following Voyager's Commemorative Set items.
- Voyager's Commemorative Cape
- Voyager's Commemorative Strap
- Voyager's Commemorative Goggles
- Voyager's Commemorative Boots
- Voyager's Commemorative Cufflinks
- Voyager's Commemorative Brooch

Endgame
- Winter of Origin - Make sure to get one that provides more stacks of Focus Blessing or the same as Additional Cooldown Recovery Speed requires to work.
- Mind Infusion and Decayed Mind - Grants +1 Max Synthetic Troop Minion Quantity allowing you to remove Maniacal Army from your Main Skill link and swap Machinist talent tree to Alchemist for -50% Sealed Mana for Spirit Magi Skills thanks to Source.
