Step-by-step
Use the video as the walkthrough, then use these notes as the practical checklist.
The video treats Mentawolf as the key hard-dungeon carry when available because it combines tankiness, damage, vulnerable pressure, and self-healing. Doomgator remains important for dungeon damage support, but it is more fragile and benefits from backups.
Hard dungeon is not the place to test underbuilt pets. Cyclone9 recommends legendary or mythic gear on the main six to nine monsters you expect to use, with traits that keep pets above 75% health or reduce incoming damage.
The most important route timing in the video is taking the fountain after stage 13. Even if the team still looks healthy, the fountain gives you a safer setup before the hardest later waves.
Stay on the platform, turn auto off, send pets to the closest enemy, and use mount timing so you fight two or three monsters instead of the whole wave.
The talent priority from the video is straightforward: HP first when available, then attack or crit rate depending on your pet setup, with shield support if your team relies on shield uptime.

FAQ
Quick answers for the route, materials, mechanics, and next steps covered in the video.
Yes, but the video route assumes a strong roster, serious gear, backup pets, and careful mount-reset pulls instead of full-wave face-tanking.
Cyclone9 focuses on Mentawolf as the core survival carry and Doomgator as dungeon damage support, with backup pets filling the rest of the roster.
Thick Hide, Dominance, All Resist, Last Stand, and similar survival or high-health damage traits are the most important examples from the video.
Prioritize HP first, then attack, crit rate, and shield support depending on the monsters and gear you are running.
