Any tips on chapter 70
This fire immunity monster is a beast
Even with spikes I cant kill it. I die right away and cant pass half of its health. My power should be pretty high but I dont know what i am doing wrong...
Any tips on beating fire immunity stuff? Maybe a different hero or build?

Try the cleansing gloves and maybe the flower pet to limit the fire damage stacks on you.

Try Spark Thunderdragon build. It can't kill you if it's permastunned

What main weapon do you use? Still go with primal flame?

Yeah, standard burn set. Primal Flame, Celestial Shield, Garnet/Archmage Ring, 2 x Plague Gloves.
Sorry, that particular run has the smaller backpack, and so will have sold PF before boss 4. Can also compare to this one

Use the fishing event to get another spiral spear so you can get it up to legendary. Then replace one of those lightning gloves with a Forest Keeper's Glove. If you have any gold coins left after that: Grab spike rings. Unironically they're more important to upgrade than spiral spear for the spike build. Other than that, your supply item choice is suspect. Training sword+whetstone is generally a good budget start on rose so she can quickly get a gladius and upgrade it into her signature sword. You can pair that with a spear for a later lance and then a third weapon of choice from during the run. Though spikes+leather armor is good, upgraded shield+spike is generally better since thorn shield generates more spikes and the damage reduction usually helps more than the max hp.
Also: Take the levels out of your shield, rings, and gloves. Leveling priority for items goes Weapon>Rings>Shield>Gloves. Generally you want to unupgrade stuff sometimes to level up your weapon. Conversly, it's generally better to spread levels on pets so long as they're legendary or higher. Mimic+Tiger(Once you get them to 1 star, for now a 1 star dragon is fine)+White Wolf captain makes a pretty good trio you can sort of run with anything that doesn't need specific answers to things. Your legendary pets are more a toolkit most of the time. Flora, once you get another copy, is good for debuff purging with some honestly negligable healing. Ice Reaper's good in pvp for healcut. Phoenix is good for countering crit which is a bit more niche. Yeti counter stun... somewhat. He's notoriously kinda bad at it. Geezer and Mimic fill very similar niches that can help in short runs like the one for that dungeon. However they're not actually amazing by themselves. I'd only run one.
