How to pick a Dark Pact when your legion is running low

You’re at the end of a labyrinth floor. Your legion is still standing, but your health is low. The Dark Pact cards offer different rewards and, just as importantly, different ways to finish the floor. Read the objective before looking at the payout.

Break the Seals. The seal is the target. Enemies keep coming while it stands, so clearing every pack can cost time without getting you closer to the exit. Keep a route open and turn your legion’s attention back to the seal.

Massacre. Now the kill count is the goal. Corpse Explosion can turn the first few kills into damage against the next group. If your front line is thinning out, keep an eligible corpse to raise before you detonate the rest.

Survive. The challenge is to stay within the ward. Save a movement skill for when a pack closes in, and choose an escape route that keeps you inside the boundary.

Read the warning and the reward separately. Perilous and Deadly Threat are warnings about the fight. They don’t tell you which pact pays more. Compare the actual reward rows, then ask whether the objective suits the legion and resources you have left.

I’m developing Necromancer: Undead Legion RPG as a paid action RPG for Android and iOS. The trailer shows actual combat from development, filmed with the HUD hidden.
