Soul Hearts aren't just a mechanic for keeping the team alive—they're also vital for maximizing your dungeon runs. Having an extra set of hands to gather Dark and Darker Items or fend off enemies can significantly increase your team's odds of Dark And Darker Gold success. Furthermore, reviving a teammate ensures that any loot they've collected before their death isn't lost entirely, preserving your chance to cash it in for Dark and Darker Gold.

The risk of retrieving and using Soul Hearts also adds to the game's high-stakes atmosphere. Every decision, from whether to retrieve a fallen ally's Soul Heart to when to risk using an altar, becomes a test of your tactical thinking and teamwork.

Tips for Managing Soul Hearts

    Stay Close to Teammates: Preventing deaths is always preferable to retrieving Soul Hearts. Stick together and support one another to reduce the risk of losing a party member in the first place.

    Scout Altar Locations Early: Knowing where altars are located can save you precious time and effort later. If you come across an altar during exploration, make a mental note of its location for future use.

    Balance Risk and Reward: While reviving a teammate can be game-changing, don't jeopardize your entire party for an impossible retrieval. Sometimes it's better to cut your losses and ensure the rest of the team survives.

    Use Soul Hearts Strategically: Timing is everything. If you're nearing the end of Dark And Darker Gold Coins a dungeon and have limited resources, weigh the benefits of reviving a teammate against the potential dangers.
