Soulstone Survivors Beginner’s Guide
How to Unlock Everything - Achievements Guide
The best way to find out how to unlock a specific thing in Soulstone Survivors is touse the Achievements tabon the home screen. To see everything, check the “Show only incomplete achievements” on the left-hand side of the menu. Knowing what you need to do to unlock a character, rune, map, or weapon will help you in planning your actions.
Best Starting Character
While the Barbarian and the Pyromancer are very good choices for starters, you should switch to the Spellblade as soon as you unlock it. It serves as a superior version of the Barbarian, offering better protection and movement speed. For glass cannon strategies, instead of the Pyromancer,unlock the Arcane Weaver. This magic user focuses on damage, cast frequency, and experience.
Best Character in the game
Thebest character in the game is the Samurai, with his focus on critical damage, fast movement, and fire damage. Having said that, I had themost fun playing the Death Knight! This undead champion is the only character with a mount, which makes him very fast. In fact, he’s so fast he can’t use Dash.
Best Runes in SoulStone Survivors
Runes inSoulstone Survivorsare divided intoVersatility(you may equip three runes) andTenacity(you can equip four runes). Depending on what you want to achieve (farming or completing achievements), focus on runes that improve your chances.

1. Always move!
No matter what character you choose and how much armor they have, you’ll always be vulnerable if you’re just standing around. Granted, you’ll sometimes be so dominant that you’ll be able to go AFK. However, in most cases, especially when dealing with bosses, constant movement and dashing are a must.
2. Keep your resources
Resources are precious, as upgrades are expensive and you’ll need a lot of grinding to get enough (and it’s never enough). So, avoid spending on things you don’t need by not using them unless you’re certain you really need to spend materials on something. Why would you spend resources on upgrading things for a character you won’t use much?
3. Focus on unlocking new characters
Instead of being satisfied with what you have, focus on unlocking as many characters as you can. It will give you more options to play, and it’s the main driving force for grinding. If you’ve ever played anysurvivor-likegame, you’ll know that unlocking characters is the main thing that drives you to play.
4. Choose skills carefully
The best way to choose the best skills is to pick ones that maximize your character’s powers. For example, as the Pyromancer, focus on fire skills and casting speed. Skill tree in Soulstone Survivors looks very similar to one you saw in Path of Exile. But it’s much smaller; each class can’t “jump” into a skill tree from another class.
5. Plan your sessions

Refer often to the Achievements tab to plan your activities, as each session may bring you closer to unlocking new characters, weapons, maps, runes, or skills.
