Character and gear progression
Farm the Eye of Helios for level-scaled gear
The post-Zarpedon chests offer a repeatable broad gear refresh as your character advances.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Farm the Eye of Helios for level-scaled gear
Treasure room inside the Eye of Helios, accessible after Colonel Zarpedon’s defeat.
Before you go
- Reach the Eye of Helios story encounter.
- Defeat Colonel Zarpedon and unlock the treasure room.
- Have inventory room for comparing multiple possible upgrades.
Farming steps
- Enter the treasure room after the Zarpedon encounter.
- Open the red and yellow chests and collect potential replacements.
- Compare weapon damage, effects, and item level with your current loadout.
- Check shields, class items, and other equipment for a slot that needs an upgrade.
- Sell or store drops that are not useful to your character.
- Save and quit while inside the room.
- Reload and repeat the chest sweep if your gear still needs improvement.
- Do not replace a familiar weapon solely because a drop has a higher level; consider its special effect and how you use it.
- This route produces varied loot, so use it when several slots could improve rather than when you need one precise item.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeatable chest refresh after the one-time Zarpedon unlock. Save and quit in the room, reload, and reassess the new drops.
Common mistakes
- Expecting a specific Legendary from a general chest room can prolong the farm; use a dedicated source for a named target.
- Leaving before the in-room save-and-quit reset makes the loop less direct; reset from the treasure room.
- Keeping every drop fills inventory and hides useful upgrades; compare and sell or store deliberately.
When to stop or switch
Stop when your major equipment slots are current enough for the next campaign section or when a targeted farm is more efficient.
