Haze and leveling
Use Depths for repeatable Haze
Depths offer replayable enemy branches and boss clears that combine Haze collection with materials and items.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Use Depths for repeatable Haze
Davis at Home Base selects unlocked Depths destinations; Den of Darkness is the first map from Shang at Outer Crossroads in Ruined City Underground.
Before you go
- Visit Shang at Outer Crossroads after reaching Home Base and obtain Map: Den of Darkness.
- Deliver the map to Davis at Home Base to unlock the destination.
- Carry a build and healing supply suitable for the dungeon’s enemy groups and boss.
Farming steps
- Speak with Davis and choose Head to the Depths, then select an unlocked map.
- Start at the central Mistle and note the locked boss route before branching out.
- Explore a branch, defeat its enemies, and collect its key and items.
- Continue through the other branches needed to obtain the remaining route keys.
- Return to the central area and open the boss route once you have its keys.
- Defeat the boss, collecting the Haze and dungeon rewards along the way.
- Return to Davis or the central Mistle and choose whether to replay, change maps, or spend your Haze.
- If a dungeon is too hard, leave it for later; Depths do not scale with your character.
- Check the specific boss or map reward before repeating if a material is your main goal.
Repeat, collect and use
Depths destinations can be replayed. Haze depends on enemies and bosses defeated; map pickups and one-time collectibles should not be counted as recurring rewards.
Common mistakes
- Entering a boss route without gathering the branch keys: clear the side paths first and return to the hub.
- Expecting every map to yield the same material: target a named map and reward, especially for rare upgrade metals.
- Carrying a large Haze balance through a difficult first clear: spend it at a Mistle before continuing if a level is available.
When to stop or switch
Stop when you have the Haze or dungeon reward you need, or switch to a more suitable map if the current route is costing too many healing items.
