Name him Louis and hope he gets Abusive.

Should I bother starting playing it now when the full game releases in 4 days or so? I've just defeated the necromancer actually. Don't want to get too ahead into a game that will change.

AFAIK its a new class, new dungeon, and balance changes.

If a few of my favorite classes got buffed i'd be pretty happy.

No time limits. No game overs. You can only "lose" if you only have 4 heroes left and 1 of them is an Abomination and another one is a religious class.

You cant send less than 4 people to group?

>>324017941

so if you upgrade the stagecoach it becomes very unlikely you can get a game over even if you die on every mission

>>324016919
>You can only "lose" if you only have 4 heroes left and 1 of them is an Abomination and another one is a religious class.
Last time I played the game the Graverobber wasn't even in the game, can you explain?

>>324018219
religious classes wont group with a abomination

>>324018219
Grave Robber's been in since day 1. Anyway, religious classes, the Crusader, Vestal, and Leper, refuse to party with an Abomination.

>>324018135
So what, the game just locks up if your last 4 guys include an abomination and a religious class?
That seems like poor design. Do any more classes refuse to group up with other specific classes?

>>324018360
>>324018442
They should make it so Vestals/Crusaders/Lepers with the Faithless negative quirk can group with the Abomination.

>>324018219
The Vestal and Crusader and Leper (I think) refuse to join a party that has an abomination in it because he's an unholy abomination (hence the name).

You can't start a dungeon run with less than 4 people, so if you only have 4 people and one of them is an abomination and another one is a vestal/crusader, you can't start a quest and thus can't progress.

Did the devs change it after that update that made the game absurdly difficult?

>>324021762
Ask again in 4 days after the full game gets released.

>>324021762
The game is pretty good right now, as long as you don't do retarded decisions and prepare decent provisions for the duneon the game isn't THAT hard. Untill you reach high level dungeon, they ARE hard..

Someone said that heart attacks now set the character to death's door instead of outright killing it, but I've never checked if it's true. Hell, I never reached 200 stress with anyone.

>>324021579
Both.
Resistance reduces the chance.

>>324010324
shouldnt you constantly be training as many teams as possible and just swapping out party members you lose, if you ever lose any?

>>324022101
yeah, heart attacks just put you on death's door. I've had a guy get two heart attacks in a fight.

>>324022130
So +20% Bleed Skill Chance means my crusader is 20% less likely to have bleed triggered?

That trinket adds 20% to the hero's bleed skill success chance.

As far as I've seen in my 80hrs of play, Bosses are 100% of the time in the farthest away room possible, so as the other poster mentioned the hag should be in one of the bottom right dead ends.

The only time where I've really had to scour a place for the boss was when I got a really strange box-shape in a long dungeon.

>faggot thinks Jester is usefull if you Heroic End - Tune every battle

>>324024174
No, they are not. Jester's concept is fucked up. He's either a bitch in the 4th position or he's a very mediocre BleedBot, easly replaced with almost any other class. Put your git gut deep down your ass, even Devs admitted that a few days ago, they're planning to buff him before the release.

I only hope it will be something more than just a flat damage, Dirk Stab and Finale Combo has a potential to be super fun if done right.

>>324024315
Yes.

>>324024250
I like Crusaders, a lot in fact. I just think they're your typical Newbie All-Arounders without a single flaw. After you master the basics you usually want to try some more exotic mix.

>>324024315
1-2 for each ration. Since you also need it for camping and hunger checks, you want to be stingy with it or just pack a ton.

>>324024390
nah literally git gud. doing one per class playthroughs forces you to learn how to use all classes effectively.

>>324024513
You can't use effectively something that is simply mathematically weaker than other classes. It's a simple math, RNG is also important but you can pretty much pinpoint the average outcome, it's not a rocket science.

And no matter how hard you'll try Jester will always be weaker than a Houndmaster, hence the incoming buffs.

I remember hearing that the guy who voices the narrator did some audiobooks for some of lovecrafts shit or something.

>>324024837
They are pretty much equal right now. Max 2 of them are tiny bit stronger than the rest. Houndmaster is broken but it's okay, he's broken because of his usefulness in every situation, not his damage. Leper is also in that group if you're lucky enough and you hit more than miss. Only Jester can't catch up.

Arbalest+Vestal is a fucking IMMORTAL combo. Arbalest heals and buffs incoming heals from Vestal.
Arbalest+Hound or Arbalest+Bounty are great damage combos.

Note that if you abandon a dungeon, you still keep any loot that you found while you were in there. Just run dudes through and grab what you can, retreat. One or two good runs should be enough to scrabble together enough for decent supplies.

She's admittedly good for Prophet and Swine, but other than that the only time she is kind of good is on a mark team, but she gets outshone like crazy in mark teams by Occultist, Bounty Hunter, and Houndmaster
I just don't see why you would ever use her other than to level her up for the two boss fights she's good at

I like her mass -acc -crit debuff, I like her heal, I like her damage on a marked target.
Like I said earlier, I use the Arbalest+Bounty mark team.
It's how I killed the Siren ez pz.

Last time I played was like half a year ago before the new heroes and game changes.
Used a stun team back then PD+V+BH+Crus.
Now stunlock is not as viable, so I'm exploring new heroes and pretty much liking them all.

Jester still a shit.

disgusting. hes already a hard hitter who can buff his own accuracy.

>>324027870
So how does marking yourself actually work?
Do enemies innately attack the marked more often or are there just enemies guaranteed to attack marked heroes, like the fungus fucks with Rend the Marked?

>>324028015
A hard hitter who can't attack the back two rows, gets matched by the Crusader and Hellion for damage, and is incapable of attacking from the back

>>324026308
hes already dead

you are just picking up the pieces

>>324028150
Being marked increases the chance of enemies attacking you.

Anyone knows any programs that can edit an image's color palette? Thinking of maybe making some skins to replace some of the lamer ones. I knew Mugen's Fighter Factory allowed you to edit the color palette of multiple images but I'm looking for something more easier to use.

>>324029040
Abomination and Man-at-Arms too.

>>324029086
I went Lovecraft to Poe.
The similarities are striking, you can tell Lovecraft liked Poe a lot.

Lovecraft is a bit easier to read, though. Poe IS like 60-70 years older than Lovecraft. Lovecrat's earlier works read more like ghost stories, but they've still got a hint of the "lovecraftian" vibe everyone knows about but probably hasnt read

>>324029040
There's a link to them earlier in the thread

>>324029030
I haven't read Poe since I was a kid so that's about 15 years of shit I've forgotten, but I have read almost everything from Lovecraft within the last few years.

The Colour Out of Space is easily my favorite.

Read all of Poe´s. Read the best of lovecraft. A really nice read.

When, long ago, the gods created Earth
In Jove's fair image Man was shaped at birth.
The beasts for lesser parts were next designed;
Yet were they too remote from humankind.
To fill the gap, and join the rest to Man,
Th'Olympian host conceiv'd a clever plan.
A beast they wrought, in semi-human figure,
Filled it with vice, and called the thing a Nigger.

On the creation of niggers- H.P. Lovecraft.

>>324029804
I really enjoyed Herbert West: Reanimator

but I fucking hated the movie

The Masquerade of red death is easily my favorite Poe, but King Pest is a close 2nd

>>324016528
He's lying. From what I've heard the fastest you can clear all of the bosses is almost two years of in game time, and that's assuming you rush and don't wipe a good party ever.

So I've seen these threads a lot, and I reallyed liked the art style of the game, the vaguely Victorian fantasy feel is also something that really clicks with me too.
But I've never gotten an early access game before. If I buy it now I'll just be able to play it all through out everything and not have to worry about redownloading stuff, or losing my game when it releases, yes? and I won't have to pay more money when it releases, yes?

>>324029901
I'm reading a biography about Lovecraft. I love the guy, but he was a sperg and delusional about his own heritage

he thought he was distant nobility from england and tried to join the first great war when he was 25 to fight for england as an american. His mom found out and dragged him to the recruitment offices and told them about his seizures and chronic headaches

Lovecrafts mom was a serious crazy person and pretty much destroyed any chance he had at a normal life, but I guess it worked out for us

>>324030485
>>324030485
It releases 4 days from now and will be on sale at that time

its missing one section before that, the final section

>>324030485
I can't say for certain that they won't reset your saves, but they've never done it in the past so I doubt they'll do it now. The most you'll need to "redownload" is the update that adds the final dungeon. Might as well buy it right now

>>324030485

Yea I'm a huge fan of Lovecraft. Been working on reading all of his work, maybe half way through?

His short stories are awesome. Dagon and Beyond the Wall of Sleep are a couple of my favorites

I'm just throwing this out, but I think the merchant class will have a special slot to store money

>>324026478
I like arbalest for damage heavy teams with some self heal potential. I almost always take her with Abom because I don't trust the occultists heal or feel like I need his debuffs when I'm just gonna demolish most things super fast anyways.

I've read all of Lovecraft, but nothing of Poe as far as I can remember at least. I am a longtime Lovecraft fan.

Lovecraft and Borges are my two favorite short story authors of all time. I typically dislike works based on Lovecraft though since it's basically always either cthulu fanfiction or someone who thinks tentacles = Lovecraftian style eldritch horror. The other anon here saying color out of space is awesome has to tier taste.

You really need to get the sanitarium up and good to handle quirks. Also, negative quirks will build up, just be picky and choosey on the ones you believe will end up causing your team to falter.

>>324037075
Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.

>>324037704
I think it's because he must have done something bad (theft, murder...) rather than the tone of his skin. People weren't angry because of your skin back then, they would just be afraid/curious/wary.

>>324037704
You don't get torches and pitchforks for a lynching, and a normal person wouldn't have a tricked out crossbow instead of a gun of some kind. Also note that he managed to outrun that mob with his guts hanging out of his chest.

Leprosy tends to cause your skin to develop hard patches, which are disfiguring, and cause the nerves to get fucked up. So one day you could just feel numbness or blinding pain. The really bad portions of leprosy are often due to secondary infections, due to a compromised immune system (it tries to fight off the leprosy, but gets spent). This may occur to not noticing you get sliced good, which can cause other diseases to take advantage of the exposed skin.

>>324041368

Shuffle is easily avoidable if you run with an HM or a highwayman for the camp buff.
Shuffle attacks work pretty rarely too especially considering he has the highest move resist of them all.

Been running with arba healer HM leper for some champion bosses and he's literally unkillable, not to mention he's running with rabies and he has still 105 acc with focus ring and box.

>>324042593
Go for it, no real reason to, if its your first run chances are you ruin it and restart anyways.

I dont mind the game pulling crushing moments of rng horse shit but it would be neat if things like when the whole party dodges your stress goes down or just when you dodge something you have a chance to stress down. These are just loose ideas but even among all of the horrible things the game can do to you, it feels like there are some positive events that would just fit really nicely

I completely cleared a medium Warrens run with 2 houndmasters, an arbalest, and a BH. Only the BH got stressed, due to thinking it was a good idea to examine every pigskin tarp. Everyone else pretty much bled and sniped everything good and dead fast.

0 - 2 for novice. 3 - 4 for adventurer. 5 - 6 for veteran

>>324044203
Exactly! Maybe it could just be a quirk even so its not rediculous balance breaking.

>>324044717
Level 3. I really wish there were some level 2 missions to bridge the gap, really screws you over to have shitty heroes immediately faced with such a damage spike.

Rank 3 for level 1 dungeons, Level 5 for level 3 dungeons I believe.

Even a quirk I think might end up being a bit too OP because you'd foot the bill for locking it in everytime.
Still a swell concept they should put some thought into. It might be too complex to add but for a mod maybe... what if you had it apply a 3 turn buff or something when you got the stress heal.

So i always like the leper, i kinda get an idea of items, but what about skills? of course chop is a must, i always felt meh towards hew but that damage is pretty nice
solemnity is a fucking great heal and ressit on top , and i have purge to clear corpses
should i get rid of hew and get the stress heal + prot? seems pretty important

>>324045792
I dont know anout anyone else but i just load the heals and hew and KILL THEM ALL. i keep chop on hand for big targets but hew and zealous accusation are just fucking fantastic attacks

release date when?

>>324046462
The 19th.

"A King may move a man, a father may claim a son. That man can also move himself. And only then does that man truly begin his own game. Remember that howsoever you are played, or by whom, your soul is in your keeping alone. Even though those who presume to play you be kings or men of power. When you stand before God, you cannot say "but I was told by others to do thus" or that "virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice."
