After completing Day 1 of the Doom Tower, I found out some very interesting information!
The key information I found out was to save your Secret Rooms for Later!
I will explain why:
Floor 10 Boss on Normal Mode is dropping Rare - Magma Core - Materials
The Top Right Corner of the Boss shows you the Blue Material which are dropping.
Here is a super close up picture so you can see what I am saying.
Why does this matter?
Because Magma Core materials are needed to create Fatal Gear.
However, I want you to take a close look at the below Screenshots:
In this above picture, I selected to craft 3 to 4 star gear.
You can see to craft these gears you need Rare Magma Cores.
In this above picture, I selected to craft 4 to 5 star gear.
You can see to craft these gears you need Rare Magma Cores + Epic Magma Cores.
In this above picture, I selected to craft 5 to 6 star gear.
You can see to craft these gears you need Epic Magma Cores + Legendary Magma Cores.
If I complete the Secret Room early, I will get extra Silver Keys from them.
I will than only be able to farm the Low Level Boss which give me "Rare Materials"
I will than only be able to craft 3-5 star gear with these "Rare Materials"
I don't want 3-5 star gear.
I want 6 star gear.
This means I need to save my Secret Room till later so I can use the extra Silver Keys to Farm the higher Boss stages which give me better material quality.
Doom tower is pure joke. Instead of level 40 requirement, Plarium should have simply told the truth - Spend $10K in the shop, then unlock DT. For 99% of the playerbase DT will be a no-go for over 2 years to pull and level up and book the amount of top tier champs needed
Yes its challenging, ive only got 1 6 star player so far,the rest of the core team is at 50..working on my next 6 star..only 1 legendary to work with too.I like a challenge and I like the fact that it will take me a while to be able to go through the Doom Tower . It leaves me something to look forward to and work at..I like it, , that said i can empathize with anyone feeling like its out of reach for them. The game certainly is easier if u start dumping cash into it but, wheres the challenge in that?

Hey Volfer,
Doom Tower was introduced as more of an "end game" area in Raid. Everyone is at differnt stages of the game; 1st lvl 60 farmer, setting up Arena team, auto lvl 20 dungeons for Arbiter, CB team, FW, and now we have Doom.
For end game players that are just running their UNM CB, or are working on getting Lydia, this give them something new to have renewed interest in the game. Develop champs that have been collecting dust in their vault, grind new gear for these champs, etc....
I recently got Arbiter, and can 3 key NM CB.....I wish I could get UNM CB rewards, or get past any FW lvl 10 lol, but my roster is not there yet. It takes time for all of us to progress. Or, we have the choice to $$ and progress faster.
With that said, I do agree that Plarium does charge way too much for packages, shards, books, etc in their Shop. I do spend a little $5~$10 here and there, but only if there is a good deal. Chosen Elite (YouTuber) had a calculator that helps me to decide if I want to buy something.
Not sure if that helps, or if it was needed, but there is my 2₵.
Do you use Renegade in other areas of the game? I am wondering the main difference between Renegade and Painkeeper. I have Painkeeper, naked at 40, waiting for Maneater, and have used a few Renegades as food. Should I be building a Renegade as well?
Don't mean to take this away from your Doom thread, but this is the first time I have seen Renegade come up.
My only gripe so far is the silver cost of moving my gear around to beat the Scarab King. I cringe knowing that I'll have to do it again the next time he comes around if I don't find a suitable champion for a dedicated Scarab King role.
For those struggling or think DT is impossible for newer players; I'm almost 3 months in and so far I'm keeping up on normal mode. No, I'm not much of a spender if that's what you're thinking. This is a strategy game, you have to think about your opponent's abilities and plan to take him down. Either that or just go on YouTube and learn how others beat locations you're stuck on.
I'm not sure if I'm missing something here. I've read a few people state that they are saving their silver keys for higher levels of the secret rooms, but I don't see how that's possible. Your keys reset to 10 everyday. If you didn't farm the boss, and had 12 in bank, at reset you would be knocked back to 10. If you had one left over from the previous day, you're topped up to 10. There is no saving them for future levels higher up the tower.
That being said, as far as I can tell you cannot farm the seret rooms anyways. I have tried on a few different occasions to redo them and I get no rewards for winning and the silver key is not used up. All I have been able to use them for is farming the boss, which lets you auto fight them all by the way!
Wow the doom tower is cool i love it and its bout time :))Only thing i have is i have 2 accounts one of them is only lower end and its hard for that one to beat some bosses im stuck now on that one any clue? I have 2 keals on that account warmadin shrimini is the only lego and i have cold heart but she is only level 50 and apocary im now on that account stuck on the scarub king on normal and i dont have no one that puts shields ?
What is wrong with starting in normal mode? You will always have the time to finish both modes right?
I don't like the "key system" here. I wish I can just use energy so I can finish the stages within the day
But, it is what it is.
I think starting with hard makes sense to get to the furthest boss you can b4 switching to normal. Then each day you can use your silver keys to farm better materials. At least I think that makes sense, I haven't fully grasped the doom tower quite yet...lol.
Renegade is considered to be a "Poor Man, Prince Kymar"
Renegade resets your heroes skill by 2 vs. Pain Keeper reseting by 1.
Hundreds of players around the world use Renegade in Dungeon Speed Farming teams.
You can use Renegade in any of the End Game Dungeon's to blast through the Dungeon faster.
Prince Kymar is considered to be the Ultimate Reset hero.
However, Not everyone has the mad stacks like the Prince. lol
We use what we can to help speed the team along.
Here is a picture of Renegade in my Dragon Stage 20 team.
You can use Renegade in all the Stage 20 Dungeons for Speed Farming.
I don't use Renegade in all of my Dungeons because I haven't built a Speed team for all of them, yet.
It is a work in progress for sure.
Hopefully, You can see how useful Renegade can be if you don't have a Prince Kymar.
I hope that answers your question.

OMG, Is the Scarab King insane good?
I haven't faced him, yet
I wonder how vicious he will be.

I think you might be slightly confused.
You can't save Silver keys.
Every Silver key you get you have to use or it disappears.
However, no one is forcing you to attack the "Secret Rooms".
The "Secret Rooms" give you extra Silver Keys when you beat them for the 1st time.
What people are doing is waiting!
They are not attacking the Secret Rooms.
Players are waiting till they get higher up the Doom Tower to the higher level Bosses.
Than they are going to go back to the Secret Room's to beat them for the 1st time.
This will give them extra Silver keys.
They will use those extra Silver keys to farm the high level Boss Stages to get better Forging Materials.
Some people are saying save your "Silver Keys", but what they really mean is to avoid attacking Secret Room's till you get higher up the Tower.
I think starting with hard makes sense to get to the furthest boss you can b4 switching to normal. Then each day you can use your silver keys to farm better materials. At least I think that makes sense, I haven't fully grasped the doom tower quite yet...lol.
I have different approach. I want to familiarize with Doom tower mechanic's first. That is why I started with the normal mode.
I don't expect to finish hard on first try, knowing how Plarium made faction wars' difficulty, and they did say that doom tower is an "end game" content in their video.
