Rogue Blight Guide
Meta Progression After First Victory
Sanctuary Fungi spending across General, Map, Fortune, Stats & Defence, and Attributes — priority after each Lady of Blight clear.
Last updated: September 5, 2026
Quick Answer
Each clear pays Fungi for five trees: Stats & Defence first, then Attributes (crit/Int), General (potions), Map (forge points/statue cap), Fortune (gold) last.
Each Lady of Blight kill pays Fungi in the Sanctuary. Spend it before the next cycle — the upgrade screen splits into five categories:
| Category | Examples | Upgrade screen |
|---|---|---|
| General | Extra potion slots, potion potency, bonfire options, skill-cost nodes |  |
| Map | Starting forge points, statue stat cap (30→40) |  |
| Fortune | Gold gain, Jester Set economy bonuses | No screenshot yet |
| Stats & Defence | Max HP, defense, elemental/status resistance |  |
| Attributes | Crit chance, crit damage, Intelligence |  |
Pre-victory basics: hub Phase I. First clear unlocks Cycle 2 (NG+) — new boss roster on all bosses, same five trees, more Fungi per loop.
My spending order (cross-category)
- Stats & Defence — max HP, defense, elemental + status resistance
- Attributes — crit chance + crit damage; then Intelligence (~5 points)
- General — extra health/mana potion slots before potency; bonfire option after
- Map — starting forest points; then statue gain 30 → 40
- Fortune — gold / Jester Set bonuses — luxury until core stats are maxed
Skip one-run-only nodes until the permanent trees above are solid.
Why Stats & Defence before Fortune
Cycle 2 enemies hit faster. Run ends from HP? Stats & Defence problem. Run ends from DPS? Attributes problem. Fortune doesn't keep you alive on Illdrake Knight.
Mistakes I see
- Fortune before Stats & Defence
- Potion potency in General before extra charges
- Saving Fungi for one expensive Map node instead of spreading spikes
