Keep dying in the Ruins of Desarune; am I under-leveled?

Post by HIMALAYANs »

I finished LoG 1 and started with 2, and after going through Twigroot Forest I headed East to the Ruins of Desarune. The fighting that takes place there is pretty hard, but I managed to beat all the skeletons, Ice monsters and crabs and grab the Power Fragment (the shiny levitating thing I believe).

But when I go downstairs, there are new kinds of enemies, like ratlings, and there are so many of them + all the previous monsters. I think I'm under-leveled or my tactics are not good enough. I did manage to beat LoG 1 and I have decent experience in RPG/dungeon crawlers in general, so I'm puzzled why it's taking me so long to finish one dungeon.

Was it a mistake to start with Ruins of Desarune? Should I travel somewhere else where the monsters are easier and try to level up? Or do the enemies level up with me, so I don't gain much?
