==Strategies==
* Fountains and Afflicted Fountains provide no benefits.
* Prioritize using Gain # Inspiration when you receive an Affliction relics to have a big buffer for unlucky/dangerous Afflictions.
* Prioritize Merchant rooms whenever possible. Minibosses can also be beneficial if using the Relics listed below; the 2nd floor boss ([[Braom]] and [[Uzar]]) will proc the modifier twice. Accursed Pacts can be beneficial, as Pacts that cause you to {{c|prophecy|Lose #% Maximum Resolve}} only affect the Maximum Resolve value, so if the player is already missing current Resolve, the impact of these downsides is lessened.
* '''Boons''': Avoid Boons that modify Inspiration or Resolve recovery as these will have no effect.
** "Holy Descry" can save a run if your Resolve hits 0, as long as you have Boons to remove.
* '''Afflictions''': Avoid the following Afflictions early in the run: "Liquid Cowardice", "Spiked Exit".
* '''Relics''': Use a few large Relics with {{c|mod|#% increased Maximum Resolve}} and/or {{c|mod|Gain # Maximum Resolve when you kill a Boss}}. The latter modifier will add a proportional amount of current Resolve when gaining Maximum Resolve. Afterwards, use Relics with additional Merchant choices or additional revealed Rooms.
