In Chapter 7 of our step-by-step guide, our focus is to make a reliable fodder farmer that can solo farm an area in Hard Mode. After using your 1st premium pack and realized RNG hates you (for not giving you good summons), we will use Lapis to farm Faimon Hard and evolve your Dungeon core monsters to 5* Max (Bernard, Shannon, Belladeon). For those of you who are blessed by Com2Us with OP monsters, you can also follow the farming process by equipping the desired runes for your fodder farmer. Check out the list here.
Since Lapis is a Water Type Monster, the best place to fodder farm is Faimon Volcano Stage 1 (Path). This process is necessary so you can transition into farming Giant’s Keep B7 after evolving your monsters to 5* and 6*. As you should know, GB5 only gives out a maximum of 5* grade runes while GB7 can give you a 6* grade which will give you the edge to safely farm GB10 soon. Being able to farm in Hard/Hell mode is a milestone to our goal which is GB10 Auto-mode.
Now, let’s go back to where we left last chapter. We finished Hydeni Ruins and opened a new area called Tamor Desert. From the name itself, the area consists of Fire and Wind monsters. Here’s the good news, remember that you farmed GB5 for almost a week right? Definitely your monsters have already improved in terms of rune quality and level. It will be very easy for you to clear this area including the next few. So you can throw almost any lineup to clear them!
Road to Faimon Volcano
Faimon Volcano is an infamous farming area for its high Exp and Mana compensation per Energy. It is also the ideal place to farm using Water-type fodder farmers like Lapis. Before that, we need to clear the prerequisite areas, Tamor Desert and Vrofagus Ruins.
Tamor Desert
This area consists of Wind and Fire type monsters. We don’t need specific counters to clear this area. Your monsters will just outclass the enemies so you can use any lineup. For example:
- Bernard: Swift/Energy or Focus
- Shannon: Swift/Energy or Focus
- Lapis: Fatal/Energy
- Belladeon: Swift/Energy
Just auto everything! *Chomp* *Chomp* *Chomp*
Tamor Desert monsters and drop info:
- Endure Runes: +20% Resistance increase per Endure set equipped (+60% Resistance with 3 sets).
- Monsters: Lukan (Wind Salamander), Serpent, Sandman, Salamander, Griffon
- Monster Drop: Wind Griffon (Skill-ups for Bernard), Wind Serpent (Skill-ups for Mantura), Wind Salamander, Wind Sandman
After clearing Tamor Desert, you will be rewarded with 4* Rare Fatal Runes:
Vrofagus Ruins
This area consists mostly of Fire type monsters. Same with Tamor Desert, just auto everything! *NomNomNom* Use the same monsters.
- Bernard: Swift/Energy or Focus
- Shannon: Swift/Energy or Focus
- Lapis: Fatal/Energy
- Belladeon: Swift/Energy
Vrofagus Ruins monsters and drop info:
- Shield Runes: +15% of HP as Ally Shield for 3 turns per set equipped. (+45% of HP with 3 sets).
- Monsters: Tagaros (Fire Inferno), Low Elemental, Elemental, High Elemental, Werewolf
- Monster Drop: Fire Inferno, Fire Werewolf (Skill-ups for Eshir and Jultan), High Elemental (Skill-ups for Kahli), Elemental, Low Elemental
After clearing Vrofagus Ruins, you will be rewarded with Energy x100 + EXP Booster 1 day:
Faimon Volcano
This area consists of Fire type on the first half, and Non-elemental on the last half. You might have some difficulty in clearing the last half but you do have your Friends Rep monsters right? 😉 Anyway, use the same lineup when you are feeling confident.
- Bernard: Swift/Energy or Focus
- Shannon: Swift/Energy or Focus
- Lapis: Fatal/Energy
- Belladeon: Swift/Energy
Faimon Volcano monsters and drop info:
- Revenge Runes: +15% chance to counterattack with 1st skill. (+45% chance with 3 sets).
- Monsters: Otherworldly Dragon (Boss), Hellhound, Inugami, Succubus, Turtle, Ice Beast, Taotie
- Monster Drop: Fire Inugami (Skill-ups for Raoq and Belladeon), Fire Hellhound (Skill-ups for Sieq, Tarq, and Shumar), Fire Salamander
After clearing Faimon Volcano, you will be rewarded with Light & Darkness Scroll x1:
Fastest Way to Awaken Lapis
Extensive farming on Hall of Water could be a little tedious. Monster Challenges Quests saves the day, you can actually collect a good amount of essences after meeting the requirements. Lets take a look:
Conquer 3F
Conquer 5F
Conquer 7F
Now you only have to farm 5 Essence of Magic (High) to awaken her!
Full Video of B7 Auto-run:
Lapis as Fodder Farmer
After clearing Faimon Volcano, Go to Challenge -> Challenge -> III. Fast Leveling Strategy. Then clear Path (Normal) using only Lapis:
Collect Mystical Scroll Reward. Then clear Path (Normal) with 3 Monsters (Lvl 1) in Auto Mode using Lapis.
Collect Vampire Rune x4 and Revenge Rune x2.
Remember I told you to save Mana Stones for rune Power-ups? Equip the Rune Rewards to your Lapis and power-up slots 2/4/6 to +12. 1/3/5 to +9. This should require you a range of 300k~400k Mana Stones to complete.
Your Lapis stats should be similar to this:
Full Video of Auto-run:
Now you can enjoy solo farming Faimon Hard! Remember to pop up your x2 EXP and evolve your Dungeon Core Team to 5* Max.
Game Progression Guide
Monster Leveling:
- Use your friend or mentor’s Rep Monster to gain higher Exp. Farm in Hell mode if possible.
- After using all the available Rep Monsters, use your fodder farmer to continue your quest to monster evolution.
- Friend/Mentor’s Rep monster refreshes every 12mn Server Time
Key Monsters to Level Up:
- Shannon, Bernard, Lapis, Belladeon, Konamiya.
- All should be 5* Max lvl 35 to farm GB7 in auto-mode.
- Start collecting monster for Dark Ifrit (Veromos) Fusion.
- Farm Darion (Light Vagabond) for your +1 on GB10 team
Resource Management
- Edmund is unlocked on your rivals. Remember to collect guaranteed crystals from defeating your rivals every time they are up.
- Rune power-up priority: Slots 2,4 and 6
- Don’t bother powering up 3* runes anymore. You will get better quality runes from now after being able to farm GB5 and higher.
- Only power-up runes to +12 if they are at least 4* and with good stats/substats
- Collect rewards from Events, they give plenty of resources
- Continue upgrading your Sanctum of Energy
- Always save up Mana Stones for future rune drops.
Monster Storage
Allows you to store additional monsters outside of your Monster Box/Storage. Costs 200,000 Mana Stones for building, then each upgrade costs another 200,000 Mana Stones or 50 crystals for additional capacity of 10 monsters.

Got a dark minotaurus for my l&d 😂😂😭
I spent about 500k Mana Stones to power-up the runes for Lapis! Is it bad luck?
Um so I think I screw up my current account. Not only did I accidently fusion those runes who at that the time I had it on Fire Litch.. Now that I have fusion him without removing the runes of course by accident not design and I really need both Bella and Vero but Com2us didn’t blesswant me with gorgeousness I’m ducked! The monster I have now r questionable because of my stupidity. I have Lapis (Haven’t awaken her just yet, but almost), I’ve got Tanya (Not awaken), Sath (Awaken), Galleon (Not Awaken) that’s only five stars Level Mon. I could go on but you don’t want to read my nonsense and ducked up crap. Generally I ducked up my account so bad that in my level of 32, I think I’m lowest than my bro who’s in level 20 and already has good Mon. Idk, what to do at this stage. I don’t want to delete account again, cuz I did my design and was that REGRETS. Any who I just want to know what I should do at this stage cuz… I’m frontage game but I’m far ducked.
Just want to say there are so many typos sorry… Plz, let me correct the autocorrect…
Bless me not blesswant
By design not my design…
Far into the game not frontage game
Do you have a recommended b7 water team I don’t
know if I’m ready
The standard core team is good enough or use darion in place of konamiya 🙂 A little bit slow but can definitely clear. Kill the right tower first.
Very nice guide thank you so much!
But I don’t understand how do you finish the water Hall stage 7 auto for essenz… I don’t can clean stage 6 with this team 😐
I farmed GB5 for a week and got the runes good enough to clear. Also in the video, i destroyed the tower first then boss 🙂
For everyone who want a good newbie team for b7 water. The key is the dots !
Take you normal team composition but replace Darion with Decamaron (you can have it with the achievement of b3 water quest)
If you don’t have Decamaron, take anything that can cast dots on the boss.
Team :
– Lapis 5*
– Bernard 5*
– Shanon 5*
– Belladeon 5*
– Decamaron 4*
You don’t necessary need all your mons 5* but it’s more safe 🙂
Thank you so much DK! 🙂
Nice guide! I wish I had read this earlier. Now i`m lv 22 but cannot do gb5 auto. My mons: Magic knight 5*, fire Anubis, Megan, Tarq+ Sieq 4*,wind Sky dancer, Sath, wind Fairy, Konamiya, wind 9 tailed fox, Bernard. Please help me team set up and runes to do gb5 or higher auto! Sorry for my bad english
DK pls respond! I have light Inu & vegabond now
Lapis (L) – Fatal/Blade or the Vamp/Revenge (SPD/CD%/ATK%)
Chasun – Energy3x (SPD/HP%/HP%)
Bernard – Swift/Energy or Focus (SPD/HP%/HP%)
Konamiya or Light Inugami from Sunday Secret Dungeon – Swift/Energy or Focus (SPD/HP%/HP%)
Light or Wind Vagabond – Energy3x (HP%/HP%/HP%)
That should help you a lot in GB5 up to GB7 🙂
Sorry for late response. would be able to assist you faster on Discord channel https://discord.gg/zJ6F8sC 🙂
Love the guide, just one thing trying to do the solo Lapis for the challenge, but what is the setup you need to do that cause you have to do that to get the runes from the challenge ? Should I wait until she is 5 star or can I do it at 4 maxed? Thanks
Nevermind was ablt to get it with some rune power ups
Way to go! I did it with Fatal Energy sets 🙂
Where yo get Light Inugami from? I don’t have it. Do we get it as a reward or something?? If so theN I guess o have probably made it fodder. Is there any other way I can get it.
You can get Light Inugami from Secret Dungeon when Hall of Light is open (every Sundays) 🙂
Thankyou DK
Hi! i already did my first prem pack and got amelia and kaz. because of the current event, i have again 670 gems. i am level 23. should i spend it on another premium pack soon or for magic shop slots or anything else?
Goodness! congrats on Amelia!
Yes, collect crystals for packs until you can safely farm GB10 🙂 When you do, spend them on refills.
Hi?! I just love this guides I am a new player, but I do not know what monsters should I keep and what not
I also got the unicorn of fire and I’m trying to use him instead of darion but I cannot get the runes for slot 2 4 ?& 6 even in hell difficulty in their respective area’s like e days trying to get % health and no luck
Hi there! Can you share your monster stats? Particularly Lapis, Bernard, Shannon, Belladeon, Darion and Konamiya.
From there we can adjust which monster needs more attention.
I suggest to build Fire Unicorn later. The priority is to farm GB10 asap and Fire Unicorn won’t be of help until you are ready for PvP.
I just pulled a wind panda yesterday, does he work on a gb10 team?
The roster would look like Vero, Bella, Shannon, Bernard, wind panda
Congrats on getting a Wind Panda! 🙂 He is OP in PvP.
I wouldn’t recommend him for GB10 though, 1st skill hits 3x which makes the boss counterattack often. I’ll recommend him for NB10 instead.
Vero (L), Bella, Shannon, Bernard, Darion is much better. What other options do you have?
I have an arang, mav., my lapis is 6*, .. wind rakshasha, water brownie magician, water barbaric king, and some others
Water Barbaric King is a good option and also a viable unit for DB10 soon. If he is still 5* you can rune him as SPD / HP% / ATK% in the meantime. He has increased accuracy when awakened, you just need 20% more to make it 45%. Remember that your HP must be at least 17k. 🙂
Great post dude.
I’m following your tutorial step by step, thank you.
I’m waiting for the next step, it’s helping a lot.
Welcome. Chapter 8 will be released in a day 🙂
Thx. i get ritesh XDD. can i use in GB7 ?? Ritesh/shennon/konamia or darion/bella/bernard ??
I started a new account because I got hacked and can not recover it.
I’m following your step by step.
I currently have lapis / su / lumirecia / water mermaid / beast monk wind / hwadan / collen.
Can I use any in GB7?
Wow congrats! Ritesh is a game changer. Useful in GB7 and i recommend you to use him in GB10.
For GB7 i used Lapis (L), Bernard, Shannon, Bella, Darion.
I recommend you to use:
1) Lapis (L), Bernard, Shannon, Darion/Bella, Ritesh or
2) Ritesh (L), Bernard, Shannon, Bella, Darion
with Ritesh your road to GB10 will be easier. Cheers!
Thx dude. I Will try Thiago comp.
awesome Guide keep it going please this has come in 100% handy to know as im a new player who was stuck on how to get to a point where my magic knight was suck in a rut and could’nt hold the monsters or take them down
You’re welcome 🙂
how long into the game do you think you will do this guide?
you mean how long should you follow this guide?
until your core units are 5* Max
I will continue making progression guides until NB10/Raid5
Can Pungbaek replace Bella in GB 10 team? I have Chansun as a healer so would North Stars Wisdom be a good blocker instead of Bella’s removal? My team would be Vero (L), Shannon, Bernard, Pungbaek and Chansun
Yes that should be viable. If you have a fast Chasun on SPD / HP% / HP% 170+ spd, you can go Vero(L), Chasun, Bernard, Pungbaek, Bella.
I’m at level 29 now, nearing to finish Vero Fusion got all the mats required, got 5* Lapis, and all on 4* Bella Bernard Shannon Konamiya and Darion, just want to ask there is an Event where you can Craft Runes for 10x right? What runes you recommend should I Craft? Thanks!
Definitely Violent runes, hope you get usable stats and equip them on Vero/Bella 🙂 Good luck!
Hey Friend, great guide. Pretty new to this game but totally into it 😀
Can´t wait for next Chapter. Any hints, when to expect it?
Best regard!
I’ll try to publish on Wednesday. GB7 auto team 🙂
Thanks, glad you enjoyed our guides 🙂
Is there a guide on what stats to aim for with runes? Kind of lost atm
You can check on the monsters page and you will see rune recommendations and preferred stats.
for your convenience:
Lapis: Vamp/Rev (SPD/CD%/ATK%)
Bernard, Shannon, Belladeon: Swift/Foc (SPD/HP%/HP%)
Konamiya: Swift/Energy (SPD/HP%/HP%)
In the future you would want Shannon to be in Despair set for additional CC. Remember to keep the required stats. 🙂
Hi there.. I’ve been following your guide since chapter one and i’m reallg thankful for this amazing guide. But before you publish this chapter 7 i got wind sylph and wind samurai and i already made them 5*.. my current 5* monsters right now is bernard, shannon,wind samurai,lapis and wind sylph.. is it ok to farm GB7 with my current 5* mons? By the way i can auto GB6 right now
Wow congrats! Try the same lineup first. If you’ll encounter a problem clearing GB7 on Boss stage, try to replace Lapis with Belladeon 🙂 it should work since you already have good runes from GB6
Thanks for your reply sir.. i just got my bella and i will just 5* her. My wind samurai does little damage compare to mg lapis..
You’re welcome 🙂 just try swapping your monsters to see which is the better team composition. Have fun!
Hey!, i was following this guide, but for some reason i have made some different choices, so i want to ask if this team is a good team to focus on: Lapis, Emma, Bernard, shannon. For the fifth slot i keep rotating some mons like lulu, Sieq, Roid and Purian.
Another question, if i have Sieq and Emma in my team (they can give Att and Def buff) can i get another support inside instead of shannon? like a healer or maybe even a DD/TANK like Roid?
I forgot to say thanks for the amazing guide!
Are you using that for Giants? Emma is good as a +1, but Sieq is completely out of the question due to him being squishy and at elemental disadvantage.
Emma is a good monster to take into Giants as she can serve as both a backup cleanser and def buffer, but without Bella you won’t have a strip healer, which is highly valuable for that dungeon. For any beginner looking to break into GB10, your core team will be Vero, Bernard, Bella, Shannon. You can start off with a good non-fire support as a +1 and then replace that with Sig when your team stabilizes, but it’ll be a while before you replace Shannon. Lol, I’ve been farming GB10 for about 2-3 months, and I’m still using Shannon.
Oh wait, I forgot her S2 strips. And she gives shields, not defense buffs. But my statement still stands. Keep Bella. I would still run with Bella though since his def break is still highly valuable, and he’ll be easier to skill up than Emma for better heal/strip consistency.
About shannon i agree, but right now i dont have bella, so would be emma a good supply? cause her 3rd heals, gives def buff and shield. And of course i will not get Sieq GB5 or Water B7, but i think it is a viable combination for other dungeons
For now you can go Lapis, Bernard, Shannon, Emma, Roid. You need to get Bella soon to replace Roid and farm GB7 🙂
I am a little confused , there is belladon come from ?
Have i am the worst luck , that i don’t have him after 4 month play time ?
you need to farm Light Inugami (Belladeon) on Secret Dungeon during Sundays when Hall of Light is open. This is the fastest way to get it or from Light and Darkness scroll.
Same with Light Vagabond (Darion) you can only get it from Secret Dungeon or Light and Darknes scroll.
I’m having a hard time clearing b7 water to get the High water essences. You were able to do it with all 4* Water Knight, Belladeon, Bernard, Shannon, and Konamiya?
I added a full video of water b7 auto run. Lapis is already 5* with Vamp/Rev runes from challenge quest reward. Bella is also 5* but you can clear it even as 4* with good runes. 🙂
Thanks! Great guides – for future viewers of this guide – you can also use 10 crystals to revive your team while auto fighting. It will still count for the challenge. I revived 3 times and got the high essences. Still worth!
I don’t get it. These guides are great, I follow thrm, but I’ve got a problem with doing quest for awakening lapis, could you tell me how I am supposed to make b7 water? It is impossible with these monsters.
1. Is your Lapis 5* Max? Use the Vamp Runed Lapis as reference.
2. Support monsters skilled or near maxed?
3. Floor 7: Attack order (Right tower, then Boss)
4. It may take a while to clear but with Bella and Konamiya you have enough health sustain
5. Otherwise go back to farming runes on GB5/6. 4* runes are preferred.
I cleared Water B7 after farming Giant’s Keep B5 for a few days. Maybe rune quality is the difference.
okay, thanks for the response, I will get more runes 🙂 My Lapis is not yet max lvl 5*, vamp revenge runed from the quest, I can farm with it faimon hard. I will farm some runes more on gb5. Probably these are the runes. Thanks for the great guide 🙂
Glad to help. 🙂 I also posted the full video of Water B7 auto run for reference.
how to get good swift rune slot 2 spd with substat hp% acc and more?
also why do some people use flat runes in slots. Is it because of low base HP in first place, they will take a flat rune and it will give more than % rune.
thanks
If you are lucky enough in GB5 or higher, you can get a Swift slot2 spd with at least Rare quality. But in this article my monsters Swift slot2 spd runes are from Scenario drops (Mt. White Ragon, stage 2) while other runes coming from GB5 drops.
Some starters use flat runes on their monsters because of low base stat. But once you evolve them to 5*, % runes give more total value. So never invest on flat rune power-ups. you will need to dispose them soon anyway. 🙂
These guides are very well written! I’m currently a little ahead of the guides, but it’s nice to read over it to see if there’s anything I missed, and especially gathering info on prepping for GB10.
I can’t stress enough how important it is to get friends and (especially) mentors! 5 good mentors = 25 free energy every day, plus 5 powerful rep mons. Your friends can also contribute powerful rep mons, so important for speeding up farming!
Also, I’d add that since your energy and arena tickets refill when you level up, make sure you spend them beforehand! Here’s my strategy: when I know I’m getting close, I’ll first spend my arena tickets. Use as many as you can without leveling up (you can calculate this by looking at your summoner exp percentage, then run a battle and check it again afterwards). Once you’ve run out of arena tickets, spend as much energy as you can without leveling up. If you’ve unlocked the dimensional rift, your goal is to get to 20 energy so you can run the rift. If you haven’t unlocked the rift, get down to just enough energy to run faimon.
How do you do this without leveling up? Secret dungeons don’t grant summoner exp! You can run secret dungeons as long as you want, and you won’t level up! So find a secret dungeon in chat, preferably one that will be useful to you in some way, but if nothing else get one that you can farm easily so you get good mana from it. Then run it until your energy drops to your target for the rift or faimon, and run that to level up.
After leveling up, I recommend doing a quick run through faimon to burn off energy points (my lapis normally takes <1 min) then run the arena. The reason is simple – if you get energy drops in the arena but your energy is full, you won't get any energy! Energy drops don't take you over full capacity, so they're simply wasted otherwise.
Nice to hear those positive remarks. Also thank you for sharing great tips! May RNG be always in your favor 🙂
When is the next episode? And thanks for the guide series!
This weekend 🙂 Thank you and keep tuning in for more updates.
I’ll publish Chapter 8 on Wednesday. 🙂 sorry for few days of delay
This is awesome news.
