01 / Start
Your Journey Through the Dark
Start with the ritual loop, then learn how to adapt your equipment, abilities, and runes to the current patch.
Beginner Guide
Conquest Dark is a single-player, survivors-like action RPG built around Dark Ritual runs. You develop a character build during a ritual and can plan later attempts with the in-game Build Planner. The verified material covers Early Access through 0.21.1, not a final-release ruleset.
Open guide ↗02Builds & Patch Compatibility
Use the in-game Build Planner to import and save a Conquest Dark build, then check its version, unlocks and ability requirements before enabling Auto-Build. The supplied evidence supports a compatibility checklist, not a ranking of the strongest builds.
Open guide ↗03Unique Armor & Unlocks
In 0.21, Unique Armor appears on ritual and faction reward tracks instead of remaining a secret unlock. Deathspeaker’s Handwraps replaces Deathbringer’s Handwraps, and some unlock locations change. The collected notes do not establish a complete current drop table.
Open guide ↗04Runewords & Discovery
Runewords activate from specific ordered sequences of three or five runes after the system is unlocked. If a combination does nothing, check its order, your unlock and Runeword Discovery before assuming the recipe is incorrect.

Check the version. Then the build.
Official patch notes establish what changed. Guides separate confirmed mechanics from practical suggestions and details that still need testing.
