Really loving the game. But I just don’t know how they expect you to progress at all. My Characters are level 4 and 5 and I’m on the Grocknock boss level and the first room has 2 level 8 spectres and a level 8 skelly with a bow. If I make it past the first room it’s with 2 or 3 characters with half health. I’m all for a challenge and all but it’s just ridiculous. I guess they expect people to buy everything but even so it’s ridiculous. I can’t even get XP because I can’t get through a single room! If a spectre gets top initiative I will have a dead character before I even take a turn. I will eventually grind past but it just kind of sucks that there’s no other way.
Yeah, progression isn’t fast. You have to just keep collecting the free chests every 4 hours and do the sharpstone challenge every 5 hours to build up inventory and gold and little by little improve your team.
I been in the same situation myself. I usually loose 1 character in first room and the other three by the second. Facing level 8 characters who can attack twice as far away. And deal 500+ points of damage in a single blow. Might as well be using spit wads to fight them. I dont see anyone acknowledging this complaint on the developers side either which tells me they are trying to bait you to pay to win.
This isn’t even a problem. I’ve been playing for about four-five days, and I thought Grocknock was one of the easiest bosses. Yeah the dungeons before are challenging, but that’s the fun part. Grind until you get enough gold. Keep going in and losing a few times to stack up on xp and a bit of gold. The battle chest and free chest will help, and the free events. Take advantage of those. Also sell your extra unused items when they allow you too. 
May seem boring to grind now, but give the game some time. I’m sure they’ll add more ways to get more gold.

Doing the Explore Campaign it gets easier when your heroes at level 9 the gear I have attached are Epic level 3 I got there by doing a lot of the Challenges when Challenges are available I recommend doing them as the Challenges can be rewarding.
