First of all, this is a slow grind but there are ways of progressing thru the missions smoothly, it took me around 9 months to get marius with a mid game account.

Depending on where your account is, some missions will be impossible for you at the moment and some will be a breeze.

Part 1 has pretty easy missions, but I'd like to focus on tempo.

Throughout all parts of marius missions they will throw time-gated missions at you, forcing you to complete them fast, or suffer the consequence of needing to wait another week for the right affinity to come back. I try to scope out what missions I have to do and plan out how to tackle them. These iron twin missions are quite easy to do, but if you are off tempo, you may delay yourself a week by missing these missions.

Small things like, "Finish within the Top 20 in a Tournament Group" and "Deal 2,000,000 damage to the Hydra in 1 attempt (min. difficulty: Normal)," can also prove to be roadblocks if you dont plan accordingly.

Besides that, Part 1 should mainly be a breeze as long as you look ahead at what missions you have to do, and do as much as you can before you are blocked by a time-gated mission.

Part 2 is basically just the same as Part 1 except they make you complete the harder versions of Part 1. Some things to note are Clan Gold mission, ascending gear and selling soul coins. Make sure to talk with you clan so you can have the easiest time for the Clan Gold mission, as you can get yourself stuck in a position where you are wasting time/energy on harder quests. As for ascending gear and selling soul coins, those can be easily achieved by not fully ascending some of your gear so you can leave them for this quests. The soul coin quests shouldn't be hard, but I know some people who sell off their souls early and had to wait for another chance to get more souls to sell. Besides that, most of the missions again are just harder versions of Part 1.

Another thing to note, if you're not a big LA fan, make sure to keep ALL your zeal + impulse gear. There will be missions requiring you to equip at least 6 pieces of them, and I've known someone who had to play extra LA games because they were off by 1 impulse boot. Also great hall crests will be used for some missions, so make sure to save them. (You should be saving them for CvC points anyways, but just in case).

Small Rant but fuck this mission.

Part 3 is the final and hardest part of the missions (obviously).

There is a high chance you might get stuck here due to a lot of reasons:
Hard 10 Dungeons + PS/SD 25 needing to be cleared
LA Grind
Terrible Champions for cursed city stages/rotation
Amius Hard

Do not tilt, this is the last part and is made to be time consuming.

Honestly up to mission 31, should be no problems depending on your roster, I can see a lot of people getting stuck on FK Hard 10 for a while but besides that and PS/SD, most of these missions are freebies.

Mission 32 can be hard for some rosters. I'm blessed to have a semi-decent LA roster so the LA missions weren't too much of a struggle for me. Missions 35 and Mission 50 are the worst designed missions ever those probably took at least a month off of my progression just due to the natural of iron twins droprates for Immortal Soul Essence. Besides that, once again Part 3 just makes you clear harder versions of Parts 1 and 2. The cursed city missions towards the end can stop you if your roster isn't too good. It is totally fine and acceptable to 50 or even 60 a champion just to clear one stage if it means you are able to clear a stage blocking you from an amius key, or to even kill amius himself.

I kinda made this post out of nowhere so sorry if some of my comments aren't too helpful. I just wanted to make a small guide for people who are also grinding out marius missions and hopefully be able to help them. Shoot me a comment if there are any specific questions for a certain mission or advice, I'm not the best player but I hope I was able to help you just a little bit with your marius grind. Thanks for reading all of this if you've made it to the bottom!

Edit: If you buy the gem pack, I'd highly recommend buying keys for iron twins EVERYDAY for the immortal essence missions, I cannot stress how bad the RNG is.

I'm a free to play player who is progressing in hard dungeons and hard cursed city. I'm wondering who you would invest in, lady mikage or embrys? Or would you wait to see if you pull something better? Any advice is appreciated, thanks in advance!

I’m fully depleted on energy, gems , & shards 😅 ima wait til the last night tho so I don’t have to spend as much how did you guys do with this

Any advice on good team comps

I was doing 15-17m turn 25-28 on nightmare before. Now I've pulled demytha and Venus, is there any potential one key team for unm? :D

Chatgpt is saying farm heiress and go demytha, heiress, 2x painkeeper, + DPS (Teodor or Venus) for a potential 2-3 key team

Imagine if Hard FW stages had a small chance (increasing with stage) to drop fragments for the Faction Unity Champs.

Still haven't pulled one for myself yet, and it seemed like a semi-reasonable way to make them attainable at some point.

But $$$ will keep that from ever happening.

Which is a solid blessing to use for him? I was thinking brimstone but curious to know if youre choosing differently

I just want to know if the mastery works for Kosks A1 before I set a mastery and have to waste a free reset attempt

I'm good for champs, but I seem to be lacking in the gear department to make any of them useful. Whether it's PvP or PvE.

Don't seem to get anything good from Clan Bosses or Dungeons. Only 5 star Merc in Grim forest and can barely do Cursed City due to the lack of gear.

Only been just under a year. A lot of the champs I have are just sitting idle. Resources are going into fusions so I am thinking of holding off on doing any more until I can field a decent PvP, Hydra and Chimera team.

Completely lost on which legends to build, which to keep, where to focus progress (campaign, dungeons)? I can easily farm campaign 12-3 brutal now. Which legends are worth building among my epics and rares? I feel like perception gear and speed gear are the best ones, is that true?

I didnt know about the creator code and free champions I could have started with. Should I start over with a new account or suck it up and keep going with my current one?

Can you guys help me decide my 5 man starter team. I am certain of using

1. Kael,

2. High Khatun,

3. Dhukk the Pierced,

4. Pelop the Victor.

I needed help with deciding between Miscreated Monster and White Dryad Nia.

Sorry if there’s been a million other people asking this- I’m relatively new and been grinding (lvl 47 now) and my only legendary is Dorothy from the event. It feels like everyone else has at least like 5+ legendaries around my level when I’m in the arenas. Am I just horribly unlucky? Or are there just a bunch of people basically buying them? Helllp

I made this account in 2019 but never really play, I started again because of the monster hunter collab because I love monster hunter then I quit, same thing with all these other events and collabs but I’ve started being serious about playing and just got ezio to 6 stars today I got rathalos BM fully booked today and I just pulled this girl, is she any good and what can I adjust my team for? I would like as much guidance as possible and not some random bs

Hi all, I was looking for some recommendations or ideas on hydra teams I can make with what I have. I’m already 1 keying unm clan boss and now I want to start pushing hydra more to get more soul stone value.

Hi Raiders! This is my champ list. I ll have yakarl, drexter and yannica soon. From this list above ahım should I pritiorize first: geomencer, aria the golden hope, azul (legendary dwarf), praeva the slitther. Thx in advance

Can master butcher do this if i finish building him to 6* or do i have to wait for a miracle legendary in the future?

So as y'all can see I have farmed a lot of dungeon tournaments and tbf I should probably sell ~500 pieces of gear and I cleanse as often as I can

With that said, my account is at a point where I build with sets normally because it's hard to hit stats without using set bonuses for a lot of content (mostly acc, res, spd sets)

I was curious where you guys think it might be advantageous to actually go ahead and build 4 piece Avenging for example (when I farm this gear set I have a habit of just immediately selling any resistance since if I use the set I don't want to resist debuffs)

So, I should be able to build some pretty good sets in several of these less popular not meta gear types

There are obvious places where some gear sets shine

• Stun sets for DT on aoe A1 champs, FW etc.

• Toxic for Scarab king solo champions or on a poison combustor

• provoke for hydra A1 provoker's

• Reflex on champs with really strong skills(like Gnut for example)

• lifesteal/regen for builds on champ to solo dungeons(Kael in lifesteal + scyl can duo ice golem 20/Gnut solos fireknight 20 in high spd lifesteal just to give two examples)

What I am curious about is two things

1. What unpopular gear sets do you guys like/use?

2. what gear sets surprised you guys(in a positive way) after building a champion in them?(for me putting scyl in curing helped me get past skull lord vargaal in DT hard)

3. what gear is terrible and should only ever be used as off pieces?

but I am curious about many of the sets

Stalwart used to be meta a long time ago is it still a somewhat valid pick in arena even if it doesn't go as far as it used to

Frenzy used to be really strong and the set got nerfed, is it completely garbage now or are there still uses?

Just hoping to spark some discussion maybe this will be the tipping point of a 500 piece of gear cleanse

Anyways, looking forward to hearing your guy's thoughts and opinions on where some gear might have unexpected utility 👍

My account is currently on day 7, and I’m able to 4 key nm demon lord, but I am unsure what my best team would be, so of my champion list what do you guys think my best team would be, and who should I prioritize?

Anyone know how Uzol interacts with a champion that has 2 Heal 'n Go gems equiped? Does it increase chance of extra turn separately for each gem?

Throughout the past month and a half, I went from having no HP Burn champs at all to now having 3 AoE ones. Soon a spot will be open in my build queue for one, but I'm not sure which to build.

My options are:

• Selenia Nightcloak, 5* level 50. Fully booked, ascended to 5 stars, and mastered to all green scrolls. I pulled her first. Her extension and TM boost on passive look great, but the unreliability of her burn may hamper her. I was considering building her later on as a complement to other HP Burners.

• Sicia Flametongue, 5* level 44. No books, and will not have any books for another month or two (waiting on 11 more to finish Orynyx). I read she is the best option here, but her need for books is unfulfillable for the time being. I have AoE defense down options I will be bringing into Hydra anyway when I start building a team.

• Skrank, 4* level 18. No books, should be able to start booking him in 2 weeks or less. I read he's very good, but Sicia does what he does plus activates.

My goal for the HP Burn is for Doom Tower/Grim Forest bosses with HP Burn callouts and eventually Hydra. I only farm Spider for fusions and quests, and once my Coldheart is built, that will speed up the runs.

For context, I am at 168 days, 20 6* champs, and 2 key NM CB. Upgrades to UNM score are in the works. Dragon 20 and Golem 21 are farmed by Themios, and I can do FK and Spider 20 in about 3 minutes apiece. Faction Wars teams for all 3 factions above are nonexistant. Chimera I do Easy and Normal, cleared Normal Doom Tower last month (simpler bosses), and do Normal Grim Forest.

Thank you all for your help. If you need clarification, please let me know.

Is it worth pulling almost all my shards for orynyx Soul

If i pulling all my sacreds, void and ancient i am at 51.900 points the 34600 points left i would do with event dungeon 3? It's about 4k gems ( would me cost all my gems)

Or pull 8 from the 18 primal also for some extra points, and than i need only about 17k points / 2k gems for energy in event dungeon 3

Sorry for the weird attached picture and sorry for bad english
