Chapter 2: Darj Snowfields

How to route the snowfields, what to unlock before the boss, and when to swap into thunder-resistant gear.

Quick answer

Enter chapter 2 with thunder resistance in mind, stack supplies before the long snow route, and use short reset loops around the camp to keep your inventory efficient.

Main Threat

Thunder-heavy encounters

Priority Upgrade

Resistance gear

Useful Hub

Materials and farming

Before you enter the snowfields

  • Craft at least one thunder-resistant piece.
  • Restock healing items and hot-weather support if available.
  • Turn in open village quests to clear inventory.

Route plan for the zone

The cleanest route alternates between story objectives and short side loops that pay for themselves in ore, sacs, and repeatable turn-ins.
