But longer dungeons sort of give you more camping than you often strictly need, especially if you're running a party with upgraded stuff and synergies and a dedicated healer. But especially at lower levels medium dungeons' single camping point almost needs to be used to recover. Not that you're going in *just* to do that, but it's definitely a way to save gold and not tie up heroes.īut you can use camping skills in medium quests? Yes. Or you can use camping skills to remove disease. Maybe you start with the stressed heroes then use camping skills to destress. Have a good lineup of stressed heroes? (But if they were really good probably they shouldn't normally be stressed you know? because they should kill things so fast they won't accumulate much stress during combat). Once you get the hang of proper provisioning, you can really abuse long dungeons and multiple camp times, even ridiculously so. Yeeeeees, more or less I'd agree sort of kind of.

Short runs are actually the most inefficient, IMHO, and are much more RNG sensitive since you can't camp. In general, I find that I almost always find a secret room on long runs, so there's a huge gold bonus for that too. when I needed to get my final blacksmith upgrades, I found I could pull 30-40 deeds out of a single long run on the Weald. If you're looking for heirlooms, you can also get a lot more of the ones you want on long.

I'd rather do a long Veteran or even a long Apprentice than a short Champion. Short runs on Champion I find are quite risky and not very lucrative.

I find long runs also tend to be more forgiving since you can double camp, so it's a bit easier to recover if you get in trouble. The gold reward for finishing the quest is massive, and you also get an ancestral trinket. You do actually end up getting more loot-the main thing is that you can stuff your inventory with better quality stuff, like a stack of 4 sapphires and 4 rubies. On Champion level, I prefer to do long runs if I can.
