Here's the bottom line about those realm tears - they're locked at specific difficulty levels which makes them pretty unique challenges (this design choice ensures they remain meaningful tests of skill). When you first discover them you might think waiting to power up would make things easier, but that's not quite how they work.

These encounters maintain their challenge because the enemies inside keep their original stats and behaviors, like those level 5 hel-raiders that'll give you a rough time no matter what (timing those parries is crucial here). The interesting part is how this creates these skill-focused combat puzzles where your actual mastery matters more than your gear stats, though having upgraded equipment definitely helps you survive longer.

Something worth noting - each tear has its own special setup, like that well of urd challenge where you're racing against time while dealing with archers and chiefs. Maybe interesting to know that skilled players sometimes tackle these early using clever combos with the blades, but don't feel pressured - most folks come back after getting more comfortable with the combat systems and collecting better gear. The rewards stay the same either way, so it's really about finding that sweet spot where you feel ready to take them on rather than hitting some specific power threshold.

Tips: focus on learning enemy patterns since they won't get easier, watch those archer positions carefully, and remember your companion commands can be super helpful for crowd control (especially when you're trying to deal with multiple threats at once).
