Palace of the Dead Starter Guide, in detail!

Everything you need to start, and maybe even get far in the Deep Dungeon, Palace of the Dead!
This guide covers how all the party options work (fixed/matched, floor 1 / 51), how all the floor buff / debuffs work, how the traps work and how the Pomanders work, among other things. It also includes tips on how to memorize where each pomander is located in your inventory!

So for a necromancer run you grind 51-60 for aetherpool without wiping then start at 1 then try for 200 right?

[@CaetsuChaijiCh]

Yeah that sounds about right!
Of course you don't have to grind aetherpool in that way specifically but you so have to start from floor one for the necromancer run! 😊

[@thrillhouse4151]

This game is so good, only thing I have a problem with is how everyone’s character looks like the same underwear model bunny man.

[@CaetsuChaijiCh]

I don't quite understand what you mean, but I am guessing what you are referring to is that a lot of people use the same looks and glamours? ^^'

[@theroyalaustralian]

The issue is, I have completed Copperbell Mines.
Yet the Quest line still won't show.

[@CaetsuChaijiCh]

Just to be sure, have you handed in the quest associated with copper bell mines?😅

[@theroyalaustralian]

@@CaetsuChaijiCh I never came across that.

[@CaetsuChaijiCh]

@theroyalaustralian copperbell mines is part of the main quest. If you took the part that unlocks copper bell mines, finish copper bell mines but never hand in the quest to proceed then palace of the dead's starting quest won't appear 🤔
If you have done this and the starting quest (in the adventurers guild of gridania) still isn't there, then I don't know

[@theroyalaustralian]

@@CaetsuChaijiCh It still isn't there.

[@CaetsuChaijiCh]

@theroyalaustralian perhaps you already have the quest buried in your quest log among many others? Maybe you already completed the quest and forgot? 😅
