Tips & Tricks

 * Before accepting a Devotion or Statue which would replenish full Focus, burn/use all your focus as additional movement. You'll have this additional movement after the focus replenishment which you can use for additional movement or to heal with by resting.
 * Use Scholar's Worts for healing. Pay close attention to how close a hero is from leveling, and rather than using Godsbeard or an Inn to heal, use a Scholar's Wort to level and heal from leveling.
 * Some Weapons can restore focus to self or party. (Ukulele, Water Wand, Water Tome, Starfish Staff, Great Water Tome, Angler Bow.) You should use them in easy fight, to keep your Focus pool high.
 * Spend focus and gold wisely as they are the most valuable resources. Using all the focus on running or all the gold on armor or weapons won't help your team! Gold should be prioritized to buy consumables as equipment can be acquired through fights. Focus should be mainly used on skills. Using 1/2 per fight is the key. Although, if you have refocus items or you are about to rest/meditate remember to use it more!
 * Don't sell everything you're not immediately using. Not only can items come in handy later on, your equipment can be destroyed in combat (meaning if you don't have another weapon in your bags, you're fighting with your fists). Additionally, many items carry helpful effects like immunities, which can help you navigate special encounters and corrupted hexes on the overworld, or even cheat your way through certain traps in dungeons. Simply equip the item while you need it, then remember to unequip it once you're done with it!
 * If you want to have a successful run in coop, don't split too much! Fights are meant to be taken together to split the gold/xp/items.
