houndmaster for overall usefulness

Jester has good bleed, abilities that prevent getting hit and stress relief, ergo jester is the best

>>382449561
Finale would have been nerfed anyways, with or without the building.

>>382449000
I think so but when you activate the DLC you're given the option to active various parts of the DLC separately. For instance you can unlock the usage of the Flagellant and Districts but turn off the Courtyard and all the new trinkets/enemies/trinkets/Crimson Curse, which you can activate when you want. That way you can mess around with some of the new stuff and avoid the rest until you feel you're ready.

>>382449000
I wouldn't. It adds a new (almost) incurable disease to the game which makes your characters craving for blood from time to times. If they don't get the blood they start acting if they were afflicted and when they get the blood they also act if they were afflicted. The only bonus is a slight dmg and speed bonus it gives..

>>382449561
Finale was stupidly overpowered even before the DLC.

>>382440449
Do some runs with an antiquarian. You can quickly earn a lot from the stuff she finds.

yeah but not destroying the skill outright. It should be something like point blank shot but only able to hit the first and the second. The abusive part was able to one shot frail but powerfull mobs in the third rank.

Also I dont like the idea of the "setup skill" when I just can mark with the BH and the HM and deal even more damage that a buffed Finale.

I think Jester in general needs a rework of his other offensive skills. Right now, his damage is quite mediocre and he is only usefull as a walking dispenser for anti stress

>>382440965
Hound Master is the best class in the game.
Great Stun, great Mark, self heal, stress heal.
Oh, and Guard Dog may be the only ability in the game that's actually broken as fuck.

Darkest Dungeon is a game about being the CEO of Electronic Arts.

Thus its super effective to convert people into bandages. If you get 500 gold out of a person before throwing them away, it was worth it. You created money from nothing. People are free. Be the CEO.

Best part is that jester is still a really good class, even with finale being dead

Why do people even buy games like this if they know they'll just hate it

>>382457887
They nerfed it a day or two ago to basically complete un-usable status, rather than being able to one shot and then stress heal, you have to stack up its damage by using other abilities.
The plebs are mad.

>cherrypicking most downvoted reviews
Red Hook, pls...

It doesn't sound "shit" like some make it out to be, but there obviously is some hickups with the content. Mite b a good addition to some, but it doesn't seem to be a must buy so far.

These are around half of the top negative reviews just scrolling through when you sort by "most helpful"

>>382458232
Very poorly, no doubt.

I really like highwayman. I'm pretty sure tracking shot didn't used to give you buffs for the whole battle. my fucking crits though man, with tracking shot and the camping skill

wew lads

>>382459184
Yeah, Jester was pure cheese. I hope they don't cave in further for the crybabies.

I think they nerfed abomination as well, doesn't seem to be as strong as it used to be or is it merely a trick of light?
