Help for a starter diver

Hello guys ı recently comeback the game after a long break and currently very broke while playing today someone suggested best way to grind is luck v abyssal diving then selling sunkens and stuff ı looked at the older posts here everyone seems to suggest agile theurgist set with breathing plus swimming gems my question is

1-İs set still the same

2-What is the must have potions

3-Older post mentioned ship attachments since ı havent played long time ı dont have any is it a must have should ı grind them?

Lastly @BlueFighter15 is very experienced from what ı see in older post so ı would like your assistance at this topic man

yes but you just dont get the speed buff while in combat
obviously luck V and waterbreathing V, if you have water breathing gems use revealing or clearsight V
use ship attachements that compliment your build, if your a mage use swivel guns, a warrior use spear guns, berserker use throwing spears and so on, if your a hybrid just pick one

Yes, 5 20% water breathing jewels, 9 10% swimming speed jewels.

Depends how experienced you are with structures. If you can reliably find all chests in a structure, use clearsight. If not, you’ll have to use revealing, but finding caves and stuff might be a pain.

You need those to kill sharks, but frankly, you can do that with any method that works underwater.

Musgravite for waterbreathing and lapis for swimming speed right?

Musgravites for both, you need auric seaweed and storm salt

alright thx for help

id go with what blue said mostly, but one thing to note is that water breathing jewels will no longer have a capped percentage in full release (right now, 100% gives you infinite water breathing, in full release it’ll only double your breath) so if you want to prepare for the update id say only use swim speed jewels

also, agility is getting revamped into range and will no longer boost movement speed, so id go armored so you can survive more hits from sharks and stuff

id do something like this for full release prep, all jewels being 14 perfect swim speed jewels

a few tips would be, use mystery 4 cauldrons (brewed with 5 prismatic geodes and 2 jellyfish flesh) and drink once every 20 or so seconds until you get luck 4, then go craft the jewels to guarantee they get maximum efficiency and for potions you only really need revealing 3-5 and luck (luck 5 if you’re doing abyssal diving and want a really good chance for sunkens)

About waterbreathing jewels the thing is i dont have knowledge about structures so infinite water breathing would be useful in getting used to structures but ı wasn’t aware of percentage cap thanks for information

I would probably 5 %20 waterbreathing to use until full release and 14 perfect swim speed like you said thanks for help

Lastly a potency set worth investing and do we keep the extra time if we change sets?

Yes, you keep the extra time, so the best way is to have a 14 jewel potency set, use the luck 5 aura, then switch to your diving set and get diving.

Obviously the best way for this is the loadouts gamepass. but you can just switch manually if you don’t have it, just good luck finding the right pieces of equipment if your inventory is big.

You need tartarus tears for potency btw.

thank you for help will do
