The Ultimate Ironman Guide:
This guide was put up mainly for the purpose of assisting with the basics of playing an Ironman, as their actions are limited. So here's a quick insight covering most subjects for Ironmen/women.

Important Tips/Daily To-Do's
To fully maximise the potential of receiving loot and obtaining most items there are a few things you must absolutely do daily if possible!
- Voting - This provides you 3 Vote Tickets, 2 Boxes and 1 step progression on the Vote Board each time you vote. You can vote up to 2 times a day (with 12 hours inbetween).
- Working on your ELO; You need to kill 150 NPC's on a daily basis - An easy way to get this done would be by going to ;;mbox, heading up 1 zone by using the portal in the middle of the room and killing the penguins with an AOE weapon. (AOE= Area of Effect / Multiple targets at once).
- Finishing Daily Tasks; You should target any that you are able to do each day.
- Daily Reward System; This system provides a way to get loot for free. All you have to do, is be online for 1 hour and have voted that last day reset.
- Events; There are daily events hosted by our lovely event managers on Discord. It's fully free and can potentially net you a huge upgrade if you're lucky.
- Luck vs Droprate; Luck generally affects things that are deposited directly into your inventory such as keys, boxes and raids, Drop rate generally affects items that are picked up by a collectors necklace.
- Clue Scrolls can be dropped as an Ironman by first reading them then dropping them. As you may only have 1 at a time.
- Drop parties that are triggered by donations are able to be attended by Ironman accounts. It is highly recommended to attend every single one as it can provide very good upgrades.
Let the Games Begin !
When you start playing as an Ironman, you also get the "Ironman Set". This set is a keeper for the first few days as it has better stats than most starter gears. It can later be equipped cosmetically to flex that you're an Ironman, there is no way to get it back if you lose it.
As for a weapon, you should try and focus on obtaining Mage weaponry & a Set afterwards.
Most important thing to do; Complete the starter tasks ! When finishing them, you're granted 24 Hours of extra Drop Rate ! - How to complete them? -> Starter Tasks
- Step 1: Claim Achievements, this should get you a large head start in terms of Bronze Coins and head over to ;;shops and talk to the blackmarket dealer, Optimally you should get either an Blizzard Staff > Oblivion > Frostbite.
If it isn't available, Firstly use all of your boxes and keys at ;;soulroom then head over to ;;train and click on the Training master and do his tasks until you afford a Oblivion scythe.
- Step 2: Gaining money from ;;train tasks and spending the points on golden miniguns to sell to black market dealer and Elite/Dream difficulty Clue scrolls. Items for clues can generally found in the clue scroll item shop and off penguins or Crystal Keys.
Once you have all the clue items and Double Experience Ring and Level 75 Scavenger. we will always sell them to the blackmarket dealer for money.
- Step 3: Gaining some form of healing !
SoulSplit and Life gain on hit are the bread and butter of surviving on this server. Note SoulSplit provided by pets(Boosters) do not stack with normal soulsplit. However all forms of life gain on hit and regeneration on hit stacks.
The easiest ways to get them would generally be farming one of the following,
Avery's Ring - ;;joinraid2 or Clue Scrolls (Elite+) or Blackmarket Dealer
Diablo jr - Clue Scrolls (Dream) or Blackmarket Dealer
Necromancer jr - Blackmarket Dealer
Unlocking SoulSplit - Getting a Collectors Amulet from either ;;train, Revenants(;;bossteles) or Voting (;;shops). Then farming penguins and getting their bones and offering them at the white altar within the bank.
Getting Gear
As an Ironman progress is KEY, so what better way to explain which progress is the best one.
As a beginner, we will focus on Magic - as that's our main damage dealer at this point.
If everything went right, you should have bought the Blizzard Staff now or even a better weapon, or obtained it via another way.
--- If you are ever unsure which Gear is the following upgrade, you can always check out the Magic Gear, Ranged Gear or Melee Gear pages. These pages also show you the weaponry from Bad to Good.
The Gear Loadout
So basically, your gear will be looking something like this.
This is the Loadout for beginners.
This is the loadout for Intermediate players.
