Starting off this is similar to the Arcane Mace variant, and you will decide what version you run based on what you find early game, You're looking for as many Arcane Mace copies as possible to get it to 2 star as early as possible, but a long the way, if you find a lot of Voidspike copies, you can easily change your plans and pivot to going to this Voidspike version instead

By this point you would of likely got yourself a 1 star Arcane Mace or 1 star Voidspike, its possible that one of them could even be 2 star, if this is the case make your decision here to which version you're going to hard commit to, if you choose Arcane Mace, please read the Arcane Mace guide, if you choose Voidspike continue reading Around this point you would be level 2/3 which means epics can start to show, keep an eye out for Arcane Orb, this will be crucial to ramp up your Voidspike damage really fast later, for now if you see one grab it, and then put it on the Voidspike, as well as start levelling from this point, we need to make up the lost ground we gave up by rolling early If you have your 2 star Voidspike and a 2 star Arcane Mace by this point, you can play completely around those two items, doing what we did in the Arcane Mace version of the guide, replacing the Void Stinger with the Voidspike instead.

same as Day 4, if you have your Voidspike 2 star , keep an eye out for Arcane Orb you don't need multiple, just 1 plain copy is enough, also keep a look out for Soulsplitter, if you see one grab it and move the orb onto your splitter instead this will become your "Engine" in getting your entire board flowing (at this point, if you have Soulsplitter on the board, you can look out for Midas Diary too, as this will pair nicely with the Shardfang later to generate gold for you)

If for some reason your Voidspike isn't 2 star by this point, consider using the Day 6 encounter "Enchanter" to 2 star it for you, this will save you gold in the long term, otherwise we will look for either Elder for the Experience boost (the flat +40) or for Granny to steal from her shop, finding a strong potion such as Crownforge or any status related potion will be great (we would use the Crownforge on the Voidspike) Continue to passively level yourself towards level 8 for your HP as well as looking for Shardfang, Soulsplitter copies and Nightquill to pair with your Soulsplitter, if you see a Void Stinger, it would also pair greatly here (at this point, if you have Soulsplitter on the board, you can look out for Midas Diary too, as this will pair nicely with the Shardfang later to generate gold for you)

The goal from this point is to level to get our health to around 20k - 23k, this way we will avoid being "Health diffed" in the closer fights, but we also want to pick up items such as Shardfang as they will help greatly with our DPS output, and look to get our Soulsplitter to 1 star or 2 star so it can do what it does best, which is trigger your Shardfang, Voidspike and Void Stinger damage ramps like crazy
