Gold farming build
You need gold to level up your cards. Starting from small amount it will quickly require enormous gold piles (17k gold per 1 level, 25k for tier 10 potions). With setup described below you can get up to 200k gold per run.
Prerequisites:
1. Maxed out speed potion.
2. Maxed out Rogue gold find on the skills tab.
3. Unlocked Mythic difficulty.
Build and tactics:
1. Main character: Fighter (for tanking), Rogue (For 2x Gold)
2. Skills:
Fighter: Lucky (will spawn chests from elite enemies more often), any 4 weapons with low cooldown, Move speed skill (unlocked on the Rogue skills tab) and potions find (more speed potions).
Rogue: Avoid any XP shrines. After maxing initial weapon you will get only gold from chests.
3. Tactics:
Prioritise chests, then statues for cards. Mythic difficulty raises cap to 15, it will take a lot of runs to get all cards. Crypt map is the easiest one. You will have more time here to look for chests.
Screenshots:
Fighter build:
Rogue build (less items = more gold in the run)
Chest drop example (Only gold because all Rogue items are 100% already)
Possible outcome:
