Slaying Sigils and Potions Guide for Dungeons

Slaying Sigils and Potions are a great way to maximize your damage output in Dungeons and add that last bit of efficiency for smooth Dungeon clears. In this guide, you will learn which Sigils and Potions are best in slot for each and every Dungeon.

The game offers different Sigils that increase your damage against a special type of enemy or when certain circumstances are met (e.g. the instance you are in taking place at Night) as well as several Enhancements that we refer to as Slaying Potions. Using both of these in the correct ways will lead to you dealing much more damage than using your standard gear for every Dungeon. Please notice that it is not mandatory to use them in order to finish a Dungeon, but can really help if you are struggling, especially because the Potions also bring a -10% incoming damage modifier.

Before looking at the tables, here are some things you should keep in mind:

  • The Sigils and Potions only work for power damage. If you play a condition based build, just use your usual Enhancement and Sigils.
  • When a table entry says "None", it means that there is no specific Sigil or Potion for this boss or path. In this case, you should just stick to your standard build.
  • For Paths with different Sigil and Potion combinations, it is usually best to just use the combination that is listed under "All other Bosses", unless you seriously want to minmax your gameplay.
