For your Blizzard build

  • The main route focuses on monster packs; named enemies listed as optional are detours.
  • Some monsters here resist your cold damage completely. Use an attack that can hurt them or skip those packs.
  • Start from Arcane Sanctuary; the route has no area changes.
  • Skip optional detours when you want a shorter run.

Area levels and ordinary monster immunities are checked for Arcane Sanctuary. Clear times and rewards per hour are not measured, so rewards and safety are not rated.

What to clear with Blizzard

Include champion and unique packs, plus bosses on the selected route. Their drop pools differ; use the item finder for a particular item rather than assuming every enemy can drop it. In Arcane, ordinary Specters do not drop weapons or armor. For those items, focus on other monsters your attacks can hurt; champion and unique Specters use different drop pools.

Follow the pack-clearing route; named enemies marked optional are detours.

Arcane Sanctuary · Hell

Specter, Hell Clan: Use cold damage.

Ghoul Lord: Skip unless you can break the immunity or use another damage type.

Harem Level 1 · Hell

No ordinary monster pool is listed for this area. Fixed encounters may still occur.

Harem Level 2 · Hell

Invader, Dune Beast, Horror Archer, Blunderbore: Use cold damage.

Horror Mage: Skip unless you can break the immunity or use another damage type.

Palace Cellar Level 1 · Hell

Invader, Dune Beast, Horror Archer, Blunderbore, Horror Mage: Use cold damage.

Palace Cellar Level 2 · Hell

Invader, Dune Beast, Horror Archer, Blunderbore, Horror Mage: Use cold damage.

Palace Cellar Level 3 · Hell

Invader, Dune Beast, Horror Archer, Blunderbore, Horror Mage: Use cold damage.

These suggestions use ordinary monster immunities for the selected difficulty and your build’s listed damage types. A damage type may require another skill, a corpse or a particular target type. They do not guarantee a fast or safe kill. Named enemies and unique modifiers can differ; check immunities in-game. Immunity-breaking gear and mercenary damage are not assumed.

Checked facts: Arcane Sanctuary

Hell · Base area level 79 before terrorization. Terrorized levels depend on the game creator.

  • Specter — Physical immune.
  • Hell Clan — Fire immune.
  • Ghoul Lord — Cold immune.

These are ordinary monster immunities. Unique monsters can have extra immunities.

These monster facts cover the Arcane route. Harem and Palace monsters, including the optional Fire Eye detour, are not covered by this summary.

Ordinary Specters have a restricted drop pool that includes runes, jewelry, gems and consumables, but no equipment branch. Champion and unique Specters use different drop pools. This alone does not establish better rewards per hour.

The Summoner can drop the Key of Hate on Hell. It is a chance per kill, not a guaranteed reward.

Still needed for a reward comparison: Monsters killed per run; Clear times for your build; Rewards per hour.
