Equipping the {{ItemIcon|Infernal Cape}} after the first clear as this will increase DR, and will make it easier to get the {{ItemIcon|Infernal Claw|qty=10}} needed for upgrading.
 
The {{ItemIcon|Dragonfire Shield}} (DFS) which can be obtained from the {{ZoneIcon|Volcanic Cave}} is another good option, and can be paired with {{SpellIcon|Icicle Volley}} and {{ItemIcon|Witch}}. This combination is very effective against the {{MonsterIcon|Green Dragon}}. Similarly, with at least 20,000 Accuracy {{SpellIcon|Slicing Winds|type=spell}} is another good option.
 
The {{ItemIcon|Dragonfire Shield|DFS}} is one of the best defences against {{MonsterIcon|Malcs, the Leader of Dragons|Malcs}}. However, for an extra increase in DR, consider equipping {{ItemIcon|Silver Diamond Ring}}. Doing so will reduce your Dungeon clear time, but may increase your chances of survival. With {{ItemIcon|Dragonfire Shield|DFS}} equipped as well as 990 HP it should be sufficient to clear this dungeon with ease.
