Absolvement Fast Leveling & Dungeon Farming Guide

If you’re just starting out in Absolvement, Roblox’s intense permadeath roguelite, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. The dungeons are unpredictable, the bosses can hit like a truck, and if you don’t have a plan, you’ll spend more time rerolling characters than actually progressing. This guide will break down how to level up fast, farm dungeons efficiently, and get the most out of every run—no fluff, just real tips from actual gameplay.

What Is Absolvement?

Absolvement is a hardcore dungeon crawler with infinite scaling and permadeath. You can team up or play solo, fighting your way through procedurally generated dungeons, collecting loot, and improving your character through talent cards and weapons. Combat is timing-based, with a heavy emphasis on parrying, dodging, and positioning—button mashing won’t get you far here.

1. Start with the Basics – Get Your First Quest

After spawning, head straight to the quest-giving NPC nearby. Don’t ignore quests—they offer XP and early guidance for where to go next. Once accepted, your goal should be completing it while farming dungeon floors along the way. To begin, click the globe icon on your screen. This is how you start a dungeon. You can create a party (solo or with friends), choose a difficulty, and begin your run.

2. Don’t Rush the Boss – Farm First

Each dungeon includes multiple rooms. Don’t head straight to the boss. Instead:

• Clear side rooms first to get loot, potions, and power-ups.
• Loot drops randomly, with common, epic, and legendary tiers.
• Look for useful gear like high-IP weapons or shields. Ignore color and focus on utility.

Farming early rooms builds up your strength so you’re not going into the boss fight underprepared.

3. Loot Smart – Not All Gear Is Equal

You’ll get lots of drops, but not all are worth picking up. Here’s what to prioritize:

• High-damage weapons (especially with crit bonuses).
• Health or stamina boosts, especially early on.
• Speed or IP upgrades to help with boss dodging.
• Potions (stack as many as you can—bosses hit hard).

Some maps include special zones, like blue or purple circles. These may include rare loot, inner demon fights, or mini-events—explore them for bonus XP and drops.

4. Learn to Parry – It’s Core to Combat

You won’t survive in Absolvement if you can’t parry. Most enemies telegraph their attacks, and mastering the parry window gives you free hits and better survivability.

• Practice M1 (basic melee) timing against regular mobs.
• Don’t spam—wait, read the move, then parry.
• Rely on stamina management. Your dash bar is limited, so don’t waste it.

5. Prepare for the Boss – Then Dominate

Bosses come in many forms, and most have multiple phases. When entering:

• Heal up and use your best gear.
• Stick to a simple hit-and-run pattern if unsure of attack patterns.
• Learn the telegraphs—some bosses rush, others use AoE or whirlwind moves.
• Watch for their second form. Most transform when near death, changing attack style.

If you’re new, don’t get greedy. Hit once or twice, dodge, repeat.

6. Know Your Build – And Reroll If Needed

Race and sin choice matter. Early players often recommend:

• Greed as a sin (fewer harsh debuffs).
• Katiyr or Cragg races for survivability or speed.

You can’t change race after character creation, so if you don’t like your setup—reroll early.

Final Tips to Level Up Fast

• Always run quests before starting dungeons.
• Stick to easier dungeons at first to farm gear and learn mechanics.
• Use your loot wisely—a good weapon can carry a weak build.
• Farm epics or legendaries, but don’t hesitate to discard what doesn’t fit your playstyle.
• Practice, die, reroll, repeat—every run teaches you something.

Absolvement isn’t an easy game—but that’s the point. If you want to level fast, focus on clearing dungeons efficiently, mastering combat mechanics, and building around the loot you find. Don’t rush, don’t waste early-game resources, and always be ready to adapt. With patience and a bit of grind, you’ll rise through the dungeon floors faster than you think.
