Strategies/New

New
AKA Nothing Unlocked. The following strategies are very barebones, but that's ok! Before you have many things unlocked, there isn't much else to worry about.

Spam rooms
One of the first things a new player can do is to simply place battle rooms everywhere with maybe some traps. A dungeon tile with a room in it is much better than one without. If you do this, and trade out weaker/lower ranked monsters with those of higher levels/ranks as you go through your first few days, you should easily be able to reach Day 100 of the earlier difficulties.

Warhorn up
Combination rooms are cool! Play with them! They'll all perform pretty ok for new players. The warhorn is a room that is especially helpful for new players. You will often be told when you ask an experienced player to place this at the entrance of your dungeon. This room is one of the first dungeon wide monster buffing effects you will encounter as it provides everyone with fury, which is basically a damage bonus to all your monsters, including your Dark Lord. With this room, and once you've unlocked even one facility successions from the Original Pack, you will easily breeze through the difficulties day 100's until you reach trial 5 through 8 ish.
