Fell & Sell Beginner Guide — First Runs, Shop & Upgrades

Complete a small profitable loop first

Open the full dungeon map with the default M binding, or check your rebound control, and learn the route before carrying a valuable haul. Set a stop rule for health, healing supplies and inventory value; use normal available routes to bank progress rather than expecting a pause-menu Return to Village shortcut.

After returning, use inventory sorting, separate immediate stock from equipment and named crafting reserves, and compare unwanted crafted gear with its deconstruction return. Selling a controlled batch and keeping the next run funded teaches which constraint actually slowed you down.

Use evidence instead of perfect information

The September 18 enemies arrive in room groups and have more aggressive behavior. Potions and food now play animations that prevent attacking while they are used, so create space before healing. Relearn familiar encounters before increasing the value carried into them.

Customer reactions, repeated drops, visible stats, and official patch notes are different kinds of evidence. Record the context of your observation, especially patch version and biome, before turning it into a rule for later runs.

Upgrade the constraint, then test again

Choose the next purchase by the bottleneck it removes: poor survival, too little useful display capacity, slow customer flow, or a blocked craft. Keep walkways and the counter accessible because furniture now obstructs shoppers. Check current item prices after changing shop bonuses; an old launch price is not a reliable baseline.

Run another comparable loop and watch whether the constraint changed. This measured cadence—bank, sort, sell, reinvest, verify—is the foundation for every deeper guide on the site.

• Bank progress before greed spikes.
• Keep only stock with a job.
• Test one price or upgrade variable at a time.
