# Hunts (PvE)

# Fundamentals

PvE focus of the game revolves around the gear “Score”. Player must have higher gear score than their current maximum depth in order to push comfortably.

Gear Score is based on item’s depth+quality when acquired.

Easiest way of checking for the weakest link is by clicking “Score” and scrolling to the bottom.

General strategy when pushing depth is by holding only to the crucial legendary effects and swapping less impactful legendaries for the recently looted epic items that provide build related masteries.

# Mechanics

Clicking on the **JUST LOOT** button at the bottom of your screen will throw you into automatic combat with a random foe on your current depth level. Your objective is to gain powerful loot as a result of these encounters, delving further and further while overcoming the ever-growing power creep.

As you delve deeper you will need to equip new gear not only to deal more damage but also to offset your dwindling power score.
