¶ THJ Tips & Tricks
Welcome to a quick rundown of must-know tips for The Heroes’ Journey server (THJ).

Watch the video by Ion Blaze Gaming for extra insights.
Some reminders, tips, and tricks to help in your Heroes' Journey experience.
1) Sympathetic Items — Big Boosts to Damage & Healing
Sympathetic effects provide significant bonuses to both damage and healing. Here are some highlights:
- Tutorial Ring: gains Minor Sympathetic Strike once it becomes Legendary.
- Pal/Clr Summoned Hammers: come with Sympathetic Healing I.
¶ Farmable Sympathetic Items (1–50)
- Sacrificial Dagger (Strike II): Mistmoore demon near the GY/crypt area (PH). Alt: Mithril Quill in SolA gnome castle.
- Fine Steel Warhammer (Heal II): best if Legendary, but any drop is worthwhile.
- Black Tome with Silver Runes (Strike III): Frog Tactician in LGuk (live side, King room).
- Prayer Shawl (Healing III): Estrella in Kedge — unconfirmed.
Use our fan-made sites like EQDB to lookup items from our database!
2) Skill Leveling + Sympathetic Items Synergy
- Spam low-level spells (Lvl 1-ish) as you go — extra damage and steady skill gains.
- Equip sympathetic items so procs boost damage/healing and skill-ups simultaneously.
3) Bags — Capacity & Weight Reduction Essentials
Bags can’t be upgraded in the power slot, but Enchanted/Legendary bags often have extra capacity and WR.
¶ LGuk Farming Options
- Supplier Bags: not lore; farm multiples.
- Evil Eye Bags: also not lore; grab all you can.
¶ Bazaar Vendor
Super-cheap 20-slot large bank boxes on the bag vendor — perfect bulk storage.
