[ ] Complete mission #21, Thunderhead Keep. If you’re having problems keeping the king alive during the siege at the end of the mission, have your party huddle around him and refuse to move much to engage the incoming foes. If you’re using a degeneration build, you can tag some of the foes with degen hexes from atop the keep’s walls, which will weaken them and may even split them off from their units or kill them altogether. Interruption is also good here due to the prevalence of caster bosses. After the mission, you’ll end up in Ember Light Camp in the Ring of Fire island chain.
