its stupid that you can get fucked by the RNG when you are taking the proper measures to try to deal with it, in this case using a campfire to reduce the stress of a party member. Like the solution to a problem triggers the problem itself, just retarded design.

Cool design, dumb name.

Deckhand, that would be a cool name for a guy like that.

>>323008905
But he had an affliction. Those were the risks. Arguably much of the point or theme of this game is that there are no safe bets. It is all just risk management.

>>323008370
Did he have some trait or whatever that makes him potentially fail to eat or something?

Or can that happen at any time?

>>323009792

he had an affliction, probably paranoid, that made him not trust the food that was given to him. this gave him bad feels that gave him a heart attack.

>>323009792
Paranoia most likey, causes them to act like total shits who think everybodys about to backstab him as far as I know no other afflictions force a person to skip a meal

>>323004972
someone tell me there's a berserk pack so I can have a party of guts's

>>323009792
As >>323009850
and >>323009907
said he likely had paranoia. When anon tried to give him food via the camp options that probably triggered, and since he didn't eat I assume the code says that means he starves. So he took HP damage, and Stress damage which I guess brought him up to 200. Which triggered the heart attack.

I would have been interested to know if he would have not taken the damage for starving if he had Stress Faster.

>>323010096
Doubt it. But you could arguably just draw over the Leper's existing artwork in his hero folder to achieve this.

Plus the template for heroes is in there, but I imagine the animation part would be difficult.

Does the rank a hero stands in affect accuracy at all? Say, would having a Leper in rank 2 make him even more inaccurate?

>>323011410
Give him a captains hat and some fishing hooks on his belt he'd look a bit better.

>>323004272
Anyone made any mods for this game?

>>323011939
No.

>>323011939
No. Unless you have a trinket that has that effect, rank only effects what moves you can do, not their accuracy or effect.

>>323011939
You'll have to upgrade the skills at the guild to improve accuracy. A Leper gets more accurate with levels, to a point where he doesn't really miss anymore.

>>323010930
CONFIDENCE SURGES AS THE BAD OC CRAMBLES

So is their any confirmation on "magic" existing in Darkest dungeon.
I mean I know shit like holy powers and horrors exist, but would do things like wizards exist in its universe?
I wouldn't mind seeing a wizard or sorcerer type class in the game.

>>323012210
>Crambles

Was that on purpose?

>>323012264
I like the idea that the only magic is Cosmic/Holy power desu.

>>323012264
It exists in the sense of all that Eldritch stuff. It is not for mortals to properly wield, otherwise the whole fiasco would not have happened. It is the reason the Occultist is basically only dabbling in the art. Or such would be my understanding.

Proper control of magic would ruin the setting. Though I am not opposed to some sort of magic conduit character who doesn't have real control and is a liability to the team.

>>323012264
Doesnt the occultist basically use magic.

>>323012264
Isn't the occultist basically a wizard?

Plus there is conjured horrors and shit made by magic.

Magic in the setting just isn't meant for those right in the head or of sound mind.

>>323012428
I would like to say yes to you and appear funny, but I'm just pretty fucking tired and didnt' double check. English is not my native language.

>>323012264
It seems like the only magic is religious based. Either you get power from The Light™ or you get it from demons.

>>323012571
>>323012526
I mean not through the powers of satin, more like gandalf shit.
I'm fine with that being setting, as >>323012487 says. But I could see a wizard as a group damage/buff sort of class.

>>323012723
Nah, regular 'I cast fireball!' wizards aren't in the setting.

Plus gandalf wasn't a wizard. He was an angel.

>>323012723
Pretty much the Occultist then, it would be very similar to it anyway, not really sold on the idea.

>>323012675
I thought demons were another category apart from the otherworldly horrors. There is also necromancy.

There is necromancy. The fish shamen seem to be able to use magic to heal and buff, and the witches can cast magic that stresses you out.

>>323006914
>survive 15 turns

>>323012815

According to the wiki it has to do with your inventory being mostly full or something. I beat him but I restarted afterwards because I am a baby and I wanted a good start.

>>323013075

Jester is a niche that has its uses, mostly as a crit buffer and stress relief. his high movement and moveset also make him nice at fixing party formations.

what other games are like this?

>>323014741

Curious since characters with it tend to inspect stuff that add more negative traits or diseases

>>323015252
Approved. Now he just needs a moveset. I feel like he's a mid-row kind of guy, with a skill or two to use in frontline.

Definitely has a pull move, probably can hit backrow. Any heals would probably be self-cast. If he has anything for allies it's either a buff or a stress heal.

The bone captain and his legendary counter part the bone general/commander show up on medium and hard level dungeons respectively

>>323022373
I need to meet them then.

I was busy leveling up the apprentice dudes that I've got left.

>>323022486
Get ready to be ass fucked, these guys are a bitch to handle but then again every champion enemy has some trick to make you tear your hair out.

Bone captains are like the jack of all trades, his got good armour some good damage in his crush and an aoe, that can stun with a low chance of crit unlike the giants who are just massive dickheads with 150 hp and 24 damage strikes.

Further tip, if you go to the warrens and run into a swine tar do no let him retreat into the back line, if he does he'll set up for a huge attack that will 80% of the time crit and death door you safest way is just to kill whatever is behind him.

>>323022834
Wow. Now that's nasty.

Thanks for the tip.

>>323023337
Honestly, I suggest just looking them up on the wiki they have some helpful tips that have saved my ass, most of the info is legit save for one trick here and there due to it not being updated, but that's only for the Prophets damage.

>>323024963
Of all the characters, the Jester feels underpowered.

If the Jester had higher dodge and speed, as well as the ability to have two moves in a single turn, then he'd be much more useful apart of buffing or stress relief.

>>323028502
From what I pieced together by his stress/afflicted quotes, he may have left her before she died to become a crusader. He expresses regret at not staying with her and "trading this life for her". Based on that quote about her being dead she very well could've died while he was away.

Necromancer sucks you should be fine. I'd put someone on the frontline that has an attack that moves them back so your Crusader can keep using holy diver

>>323030340
You may run into some frustration if you can't chop down the skellies fast enough. Leper is destined to do nothing but kill skeletons after turn one, and Crusader will have a hard time using Holy Lance.


I put a lot of value in targeting flexibility, though. It may just work.

>>323037363

>Bad at game
>Play on baby mode

Its okay though.

I played through DD when the prerelease came out and beat all the lowest tier bosses. I don't see a reason to get back to it just yet, because virtually no content that would add new mechanics has been released. The only reason I see to play the game once it's out is to beat Cthulhu.

tl;dr the game needs more arresting features than just stress, RNG and micromanagement. The dungeons all feel the same.

>>323037363
>>323037303

It's how the game is designed. Corpses also keep people from moving forward on the enemies side

ONCE AGAIN. Game design is not objective. Just because its how the developers envisioned it does not make it good design. If they designed it so each time you were hit you took 50 stress damage would you defend it since its "The developers vision?"

>>323037853
There are plenty of gaming communities that convinced the devs to break certain game features and make the game easier, i.e. boring. From my experience, devs should never, ever listen to the community beyond incorporating some features from some of the better mods and then denying their knowledge of those mods.

>>323017502
It's Mignolesque. I mean, you could throw Hellboy in there and it would look just like one of the comics.

This is on purpose obviously. Also Hellboy and the BRPD comics are god tier and worth your time even for normies and NOT capeshit.

>>323037853
Agreed. Just because devs went in a different way than what some of us expected months before doesn't mean we have to just agree with it. Since it's possible to turn that shitty implementation, you can just play however you want.

Darkest Dungeon works in part because it flaunts some interesting ideas - namely the psyche of adventurers, but it doesn't take it further than becoming another layer of the RNG cake. In fact, curing those afflictions - often downright crippling - requires so much coins that the game feels like a f2p effort. I don't know if the developers are scared that the content will get exhausted too soon and therefore they put obscene price tags on every service the hamlet, provides or what? I don't think that the fact your adventurers are getting pennies for their toils adds much to the atmosphere which already tries so hard to be grim it gets too much on the parody side of things. You can't take the game too seriously when hunger RNG kicks in again as soon as you've fed the entire party. Corpses mechanic is another puzzling thing, I have no idea why they would represent such an obstacle and they seem to be geared towards making Plague Doctor have a reserved spot in every party. I stopped playing because the game seemed to be intent on wasting my time with inane crap every step of the way. I guess making a tightly wound 5 hour experience is inferior to making a 500 hour skinner box marathon?

Not a copyrightfag but shouldn't Mignola get some royalties?

Is there a class tier list?

>>323017502
I actually wonder if anyone has tried to contact Mignola and ask him what does he think of the game.

A Hellboy game made by the devs would be pretty cool, actually.

>>323037363
>I can't adapt to these easily adaptable bullshit mechanics because I'm an inbred hick
Corpses can work to your advantage too you know. Pushing and pulling enemies and watching them struggle to get past corpses of their dead teammates to land a scratch on you or run away from you is hell of a lot fun. It also gives a lot of skills more leverage, like the Plague Doctor's and Arbalest's.

nah, try playing with them first to see if you like them. Most of the people complaining about them are just people who got used to playing without them during the earlier builds (Though if you're really pleb, you can turn on the "Lower Crit Damage" for Enemies and "Retreats always Suceed"), I guess you can play now, so by next week you have an A-Team ready to venture to the Darkest Dungeon.

Did you draw any Darkest Dungeon stuff before, Shwig?

Anyway
>Raider
Torch and sword. Burns stuff, including corpses. Could end up damaging the party with the fires he starts if unlucky.
>Mason
Of the Masonic Lodge. I have no idea what they do, but this guy could probably be related to whoever built the mansion of the ancestor. Sledgehammer weapon?
>Shepherdess
Good at exploring footpaths and routes. Rides on a horse. Lassos enemies and wards them off from attacking the party. Reason for joining? Just a villager trying to protect home?

>>323039852
They're not getting out either way since those who enter the Darkest Dungeon won't be adventuring after they do. Either they die or they become beyond God-Like (From what I understood, the developers were planning these Veterans to be able to train your Rookie Heroes)

The Wrestler

can scoop slam front row into the last row
can heal himself with hulking up that also adds damage
big boot that can stun the opponent
pointing a finger at the opponent marking him and giving him -20 dodge

Get a Man-at-Arms and the fight is easy mode.

Just put him in the fucking game already

>>323040627
Compared to the other Fan-Art characters. This looked pretty fucking good. Too bad the guy who made this didn't made in-game mockups for this guy.

The two big ones are corpses and heart attacks.

Corpses were implemented to pretty much kill "kill phasing" as a strategy. Originally, if you killed the frontliner of an enemy party, the entire enemy party would be forced up a position since you just killed a guy and he isn't there anymore.

People disliked this update since this effectively destroyed frontline focused strategies and because it's sort of stupid how your party can't walk over or around corpses lying on the ground.

Some people view it as completely denying a specific player playstyle and forcing a developer approved playstyle. Some people viewed it as an agreeable nerf. The devs then proceeded to add more mechanics around corpses. If you were around before corpses and made a party that worked with kill phasing then it pissed you off. If you're new than this change shouldn't have pissed you off yet. Whether to play with it on or off is whether kill phasing sounds like a fun strategy to you.

Heart attacks automatically kill extremely stressed out characters.

It's basically the most concrete fuck you, just die mechanic of the game which was implemented since some players decided to forego stress healing entirely and made it work. The devs really wanted stress to be fucking important.

People dislike it because again it denies a playstyle to enforce a developer approved one while also kind of being stupid if you think about it. All adventurers in Darkest Dungeon have weak hearts it seems. It'd be a bit more tolerable if they made the method of death class-specific I think. Highwayman slitting his own throat, Occultist making a mistake calling to the powers beyond and destroying his own mind, Abomination ripping himself apart, heart attack would actually make sense for man-at-arms considering his age. lots of fun ideas.

Play with it if you want one more rigid limit on your adventurers. Without it if that shit sounds like a pain.

That definitely applies to me.

Phalanx. Guy with a huge shield and spear. Incorporate gold and red.

They no longer don't. They just send them to Death's Door now.

>>323039352
Or you could just nerf melee and buff range.

I don't have the game, but it seems it would be better to retreat and gather the forces.

They're rather efficient. Especially the Graverobber, who got Unerring and Natural Eye pretty early on.
I used to not really like GR, but she's pretty good.

Gunslave
A chick in tatters (cause why not) chained to a cannon. Takes a round to load, very susceptible to stress damage, needs a mark for any kind of accuracy.
On hit, heals stress damage, shuffles enemy order, and kills the shit out of the target.
Tatters, though. It's important. Maybe a unit brand/tattoo on a leg or something.
