Iron Soul: Dungeon What to Upgrade First
Upgrade priority FAQ for Iron Soul: Dungeon weapons, armor, blessing, enchanting, pets, and cave tickets.
Short answer
Upgrade based on the bottleneck. If clears are safe but slow, upgrade weapon or attack plan. If you die before measuring the route, improve armor, blessing, or survival. If gear is stable, use tickets for runes, crystals, or pet materials based on the next blocked system.
Step-by-step answer
Damage bottleneck
When rooms are safe but slow, weapon upgrades, Attack Potion tests, or attacker build direction are higher priority.
Survival bottleneck
When attempts fail from damage taken, armor, blessing, Life Potion testing, and Dungeon Survivor direction should be checked before chasing faster weapons.
System bottleneck
Use Cave of Crystal for blessing materials, Cave of Runes for enchant effects, and Abandoned Courtyard for pet enhancement materials.
Quick steps
Step 1
Run a familiar route once and note the failure reason.
Step 2

Step 3

Step 4
Record clear time, deaths, potion use, and loot after each change.
