How to Beat Depths of Illusive Realm 2

Best Character Build

Character and Echo Combination

Best Character	Best Echo
Calcharo	Bell-Borne Geochelone

Since Calcharo does not have any utilities for healing and survivability, it is best to opt for the Bell-Borne Geochelone to keep him alive throughout your runs.

Character Upgrades

You will always have 1 Character Upgrade every run, and you can get more through Memory of Training.

We recommend taking Pack Assault as much as you can due to the insane amount of damage it brings, while also turning your Resonance Skills to count as Resonance Liberation DMG. This means all the upgrades and Metaphors you pick up that affects Liberation DMG, will also affect your Resonance Skill.

List of Character Upgrades

Best Metaphors

Concerto Characters

Character	Explanation
Baizhi	Baizhi will be your main healer whenever you get low so Calcharo can trade hits while dealing huge damage.
Verina	Verina can keep you alive during mobs and boss fights but requires a good amount of Concerto Energy which Calcharo does not do well in.
Sanhua	Optional: If you cannot roll for a Baizhi, you can opt to just get a Sanhua for a more offensive approach.

Regular Metaphors

Metaphor	Explanation
Any Glacio Metaphors	Glacio Metaphors are one of the metaphor sets that you need to maximize Bell-borne's buffs. It also makes sure your damage is increased as long as you have a shield, which you will always have if you run Bell-Borne.
Any Electro Metaphors	The other required metaphor set for Bell-borne is the Electro metaphor set. This will increase both Resonance Skill and Liberation DMG which Calcharo will appreciate in this game mode.
Elastic Spring	Elastic Spring increases your Resonance Skill DMG by 72% and adds 3 Electro which greatly benefits Calcharo's damage.

List of Metaphors

Best Tokens

Break Shining Pool Floaters

In the new stage maps introduced in Version 1.2, there are shining pool floaters that looks suspiciously different than the other items in the stage. When you see one, always break these shiny floaters because they would reward you with Dream Fragments!

Spam Calcharo's Resonance Skill

With Pack Assault as your first upgrade, most of your damage will come from your Resonance Skill so use this as often as you can, especially since you can recast it up to 3 times.

If you are not fully built yet, you can use your charged Basic Attack for iframes and a good amount of damage while your Resonance Skill is still on cooldown.

Experiment With Your Own Playstyle

This is just a general guide that can help most players beat Difficulty 2 of the Depths of Illusive Realm. Since this is a rogue-lite game mode, there may be other builds that are stronger or better suited to your playstyle.

If you completed Difficulty 2 with a different or stronger build, let us know in the comments down below!

Best Echoes to Use for Depths of Illusive Realm 2

Best Echo for the Recommended Character

Characters	Recommended Echo
Calcharo	Bell-Borne Geochelone ・Provides a good amounf of survivability since Calcharo purely has damage capabilities. ・Make sure to get a Support as your concerto character for a more balanced gameplay.

Best Echoes for Trial Characters

Characters	Recommended Echo
Verina	Inferno Rider ・The Inferno Rider can work in tandem with Verina since most of her Basic Attacks can heal herself, turning her into an offensive DPS with great survivability.
Lingyang	Inferno Rider ・If you want to run Lingyang with a fully offensive set-up, we suggest going with the Inferno Rider.
	Bell-Borne Geochelone ・If you're having trouble surviving your runs, a safer bet for Lingyang would be the Bell-Borne Geochelone.

If the recommended Echoes above did not show up in your run, simply quit the challenge and start another run of Difficulty 2. Repeat this process until the suggested Echo appears.
