Imp's Den Tips and Strategies

Team Strategy

The Imp's Den is filled with enemies, and the large map can be quite challenging. To avoid tiring out, ensure you have a healer, a main attacker, and a defender in your party.

Have the Protagonist embrace the Seeker Archetype to cast Wind magic, which several enemies here are weak to. As the party's main healer, ensure you've inherited the Medi skill from the Healer Archetype. Avoid using the Healer Archetype during the Goborn King fight, as Goborns will trigger Frenzy on Mace/Staff wielders.

Strohl should serve as your main DPS, while Hulkenberg focuses on tanking and defending the party. Additionally, consider the Brawler Archetype as a backup option while exploring the dungeon for effective AoE damage against regular mobs.

Best Skills to Inherit

Bring Lots of Healing Items

Since the Imp's Den is home to a lot of enemies, it's recommended to stock up on healing items such as Medicines or Medicinal Herbs. You may also want to have a Healer in your party.

How to Heal

Clearing the Imp's Den Unlocks the Catacombs

Once you get through the Imp's Den and complete The New King of the Imps, you can then talk to the nobleman on Sanmerio Central Street to initiate the A Haunted Heirloom side quest and unlock the Catacombs.
