 ** Issgard also is the source of a first proper weapon for your brand new abyss chaser. You can opt to get a normal Glacier weapon at first, which are cheaper, easier and faster to enchant compared to their Dim counterparts. Later on, I highly recommend getting a Dim Glacier Rogue Knife [1], so you can boost your Deft Stab damage. You can start farming for the enchanting materials in Snake’s Nest (you can unlock a direct warp here on the warper by unlocking all the daily quests in Issgard region). I farmed the materials required myself, and this allowed me to save zeny from selling all the extra loot dropped by the mobs. Once you’re confident enough you can deal with Abandoned Pit floor 1, you can move your farming there instead. [https://wiki.muhro.eu/Glacier_And_Dim_Glacier_Weapons_For_Dummies Here] is a very useful info page about farming, enchanting and refining your Dim weapon.
 * '''Glacier armors'''
-** Episode 20 is brand new here and while I haven't yet gotten to getting any of these new gears, I've looked through [https://wiki.muhro.eu/20_The_Immortal#Glacier_Armors the info] about them. They can be considered a bit better option next to Snow Flower gears, or equal at the very least. Looking at how their enchant process works, they lean more towards enhancing  your overall damage source (ATK, mATK etc). Regarding their enchants, they seem to be a bit easier in terms of getting what you want (no NPC to turn into items to just to get an RNG item that's a double/useless). The nice bonus part about these gears is the grading though. It's a good stepping stone for armor grading - just two grades, so you don't get overwhelmed with having to go from D to A with all armor parts at once.

A special mention, however, needs to be made about [[File:460040.png|frameless]] Glacier Guard [1]. When you're able to, try to get your hands on one and enchant it.
 * '''Varmundt gears'''
 ** These gears are your next big thing to work on. Reforming them and enchanting them is a time consuming task, but the finished products are well worth it. The gear set you benefit the most on your melee build is the Fire Rune set. Unlike the previous Snow Flower gears which enhanced your Deft Stab damage with their enchants, these gears boost your traits and melee physical damage. Fully enchanted, refined and graded, you will do more damage with these gears rather then the Snow Flower ones, as they only boosted your singular skill damage. Detailed information about reforming, grading and enchanting can be found [https://wiki.muhro.eu/Varmundt_Rune_Stone_Equipment here]. Varmundt gears also introduce new accessories for you as well, namely the Venom rings. The base item in crafting them drops from Temple / Soul / Venom biosphere dungeon only. Their [https://wiki.muhro.eu/Soul_Temple_Venom_Ring_Enchant enchanting process] after reforming is the most time consuming one, unless you roll around in zeny and can afford to just buy all the [[File:1001189.png|frameless]] Varmundt Venom Waters needed.

 == '''Useful cards''' ==
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300097 Aries Card]
+* Part of episode 17.2 shadow chaser card set, useful for Fatal Menace damage boost.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=4426 Byorgue Card]
+* A good starter card for armor, boosts damage and doesn't require any refines to do so.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=27088 Fury Hero Card]
+* A solid option for mid headgear card, since it doesn't require any refines for any of its effects.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=4413 Hodremlin Card]
+* Good general shield card when you don't need any specific reductions.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=4609 Khalitzburg Knight Card]
+* Use this in combo with the White Knight Card to make the most of it.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300223 Phantom Wolf Card]
+* Solid accessory starter card for melee builds in general.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300263 Rekenber Guard Card]
+* Cheap and good starting card for your weapon when you start out as abyss chaser. Keep in mind you need to be lvl 200 for this to be actually useful.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=27172 Scimitar Buffalo Bandit Card]
+* Part of episode 17.2 shadow chaser card set, useful for Fatal Menace damage boost.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300108 Sewage Venenum Card]
+* Part of episode 17.2 shadow chaser card set, useful for Fatal Menace damage boost.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300360 Shining Seaweed Card]
+* Good early 4th job card for a refined headgear. You'll need a +9 refine for this to be useful though.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300376 Two Eyes Dollocaris Card]
+* Getting this card later on is a good idea. It's not of any use unless you compound it into a +12 armor, that is also a lvl 2.
 [[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=4608 White Knight Card]
-[[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300467 Angel Iceslug Card]
+* For the Khalitzburg Knight Card combo.
-[[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300461 Fake Iwin Soldier Card]
+[[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300467 Angel Iceslug Card]
-== '''Picking a pet''' ==
+* One of the new episode 20 card, gives a HUGE melee damage boost in accessory at the cost of critical rate. This is not an issue for us, because Deft Stab doesn't crit to begin with.
+[[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300461 Fake Iwin Soldier Card]
+* New episode 20 card for weapons, a good upgrade from Rekenber Guard Card. Keep in mind that you need a lvl 5 weapon for this with the minimum refine of +10. Used in combo with Elite Rgan Healer Card.
+[[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300465 Elite Rgan Guardian Card]
+* More new cards, but this one is for shield. While the -25 LUK might seem bad, the other bonuses more than make up for that. The other downside doesn't matter to us either, since we don't rely on magical damage.
+[[File:Card.png|frameless]] [https://flux.muhro.eu/?module=item&action=view&id=300459 Elite Rgan Healer Card]
+* This one can replace the Fury Hero in your mid headgear later on, due to the incredibly nice bonus it gives with the Fake Iwin Soldier Card.
