So, I have gradually been collecting gear so far on my crusader during the last few weeks since I started. I reached 1200 GS around the time that I hit level 34 and it feels like progression kind of hits a wall here.

I’m feeling to weak for the 1200 dungeons and lairs, but those are the only places to improve my gear unless I stumble upon a few million Star Seeds to but pieces off of the market.

Without any special level of DPS or apparent role I don’t really know what direction I’m really supposed to go with my Crusader. I’m really looking for advice or experience on how others have handled this issue.

Focus on upgrading your weapon first. You'll be amazed how much of a difference that makes. High damage > high gear score

Use the common enhancer until your gear hits legendary, then start failstacking https://youtu.be/OGzcUCtZR3k

Okay, I’m understanding now that ideally I would get my weapon to a higher mythic enhancement level before everything else, but I face a different dilemma at that point. For the same amount of resources, is it cheaper to outright but a mythic +5 weapon from the market? A Mythic +3 Stormblade with 2 white runes for example is a bit less than 1.2 Million Star Seeds right now. I feel like you can easily rack that up in upgrade costs. Does anyone have a general rule that they go by for judging the cost investment?

Also, are there any general thresholds for Attack, Defense, Crit Rate, and Crit Damage that I should be aiming for later on?

If you've got the star seeds it's often a good idea to get any mythic5 weapon from the market and use it until you have the resources to get the weapon you actually want

This helps a lot, I hadn’t really been able to find info about failstacking despite seeing it mentioned before. Thank you for making that and sharing it

Thanks I'm glad you find it useful^
