Guides · Emberveth · Morass Games Wiki

Each guide beats one boss alone on Nightmare, the hardest difficulty, with a different hero each time. Every guide states exactly how many spells you hold when you get there, the draft rule and talents that were tested, each attack with its answer, and screenshots of one complete fight in the game. The full boss list is in the Codex.

How these were tested

Version 0.20.286. Bosses, spells and talents may change in later builds; a guide is checked against the build named here.
Sixty fights per guide on the shipped rules: ten random draft orders, three play styles (keep range, fight close, dodge first) and two skill levels. The build was assembled the way a solo player gets it: one talent point per scenery cleared, bought on the real talent screen, and one draft after each earlier boss.
The test player is automated but uses only the game's normal moves. It reacts about a fifth to a quarter of a second after a warning appears and does not notice every warning. It is not a person; treat the results as evidence the route works, not as a promise.
Alone only. Bosses scale with the number of players, and a revive needs an ally, so a solo build and its timings do not carry over to co-op.
No checkpoints. Going down alone ends the fight; retrying restarts that boss from full health, with your build unchanged.
