Sinfar Wiki / Player ResourcesLeveling on Sinfar/Saban

Go: Rodrick → Port Saban – Waterfront. Find the bazaar, forge/services and the mounted Saban travel guide.

Hunt: Use exploration and, if needed, a familiar starter rat area before the desert’s first published bracket.

Prepare: Acquire a first weapon, healing and basic defenses. The builder’s desert itinerary starts at 5, not 1.

Keep: Starter supplies; no special Saban 1–4 combat route was established.

Go: Use Saban’s regional travel service and map pins to reach the Southern Desert – Western Shore.

Hunt: Hunt the sphinx encounters.

Prepare: Test their actual difficulty with your character; the builder later adjusted their challenge ratings for XP.

Keep: The itinerary does not specify a sphinx component drop.

Go: Desert spiders are reported in Southern Desert Valley and Northwest Passage. Felias Margeita sand cats are in Eastern Outskirts – South-east Coast.

Hunt: Choose spiders or sand cats, or alternate them.

Prepare: The first rollout said spiders 5–10, but the later consolidated itinerary says 10–15; this guide follows the later list.

Keep: Spider hair; sand cats drop giant hearts and animal meat.

Go: Travel to the desert Plateau.

Hunt: Hunt graboids.

Prepare: Do not infer immunities from their name. The builder later adjusted their XP-related stats.

Keep: Monster scales and vampire teeth.

Go: Guardians: Eastern Outskirts – North, later renamed Saban – Hamunaptra. Elementals and lizardfolk clerics: Eastern Outskirts – East.

Hunt: Pick the branch your attacks and defenses handle better.

Prepare: These are distinct enemy groups. The older rollout’s CR 25–30 label is not treated as a contradiction to the later 20–25 player recommendation.

Keep: Guardians: steel ingots and golem hands. Elementals: gems. Lizardfolk: slaad tongues and gold.

Go: Go to the northeastern outskirts near the reported water source.

Hunt: Hunt the snake encounters.

Prepare: The builder recorded later XP adjustments for vipers. No exact save or resistance threshold was recovered.

Keep: Humanoid/skeleton heads, skeleton knuckles and vampire teeth, as described by the builder.

Go: Use the Saban travel guide to reach Caravan Camp.

Hunt: Hunt komodo dragons around the camp.

Prepare: The builder reduced the strength of their mind attack after deployment. Be prepared for mind effects; the old camp guards were removed.

Keep: Mindflayer brains; camp healer/pawn services were documented.

Go: Hamunaptra: use the mounted Saban fast-travel NPC; a 2026 account calls this NPC the Jawa. Enter the pyramid for the mummy route. Gang: Caravan Camp → map-pinned cave hideout.

Hunt: Caster-oriented finish: Hamunaptra mummies, using the anti-undead tools appropriate to your build. Alternative: organized Sabani Gang groups.

Prepare: Bring suitable help for the gang hideout: its creator described it as not really soloable during early balancing, with recurring traps. Hamunaptra particularly favors spellcasters with strong spell DCs, according to a 2024 DM response.

Keep: Hamunaptra loot/gold; gang loot, gold and magic bags historically reported.
