The enemies you encounter on your way deal a lot of damage, especially at higher difficulty levels, so it is recommended to practice dodges, blocks and parrying blows from the very beginning. Defensive techniques reduce the amount of damage received, and thus increase the survivability of the character.

Estimate the character's power correctly

Develop the hero on an ongoing basis

When developing the character in D&D Dark Alliance, be guided by character characteristics and your own play style. For example, Drizzt Do'urden benefits enormously from a well-developed dexterity attribute.

Watch your health and stamina levels

During combat, especially with more opponents, pay attention to the level of health and stamina of your hero - Dark Alliance: Beginners Guide - Basics - Dark Alliance Guide

During combat, especially with more opponents, pay attention to the level of health and stamina of your hero. HP points determine how much life your character has left and when they drop to 0, you will have to return to the checkpoint. Stamina is used to performing attacks and is not infinite.

  1. Health: HP in D&D Dark Alliance can be replenished e.g. by using a consumable item, using abilities with health theft or by resting in a camp;
  2. Stamina: the character's stamina regenerates by itself when you are temporarily not performing any actions, but it will be restored only to a certain level (indicated by a symbol). Stamina can also be renewed by using consumable items, activating the ultimate skill or by resting in a camp.

Fast rest and increasing the rarity of loot

While going through subsequent parts of a mission, you will be able to use the campsite to regenerate HP, stamina and all consumable items or to increase the quality of the found loot - Dark Alliance: Beginners Guide - Basics - Dark Alliance Guide

While going through subsequent parts of a mission, you will be able to use the campsite to regenerate HP, stamina and all consumable items or to increase the quality of the found loot.

In most cases, it is recommended to opt for improving the quality of the equipment found. Use fast rest when you have lost a lot of health points and used up all consumable items. Each rest reduces the loot buff level by 1 point.
