Tie between Abomination and Jester. Jester isn't heroic nor tragic or intimidating, he's nothing of that sort. He's sort of there on the sidelines, like the neutral character of the bunch is how I see him. He's there to play his guitar and land fucking killer Finale crits, and laugh about it.

Abomination for the opposite reasons really, he's tragic with a dash of heroic, because he becomes a total beast when transformed, and whenever he's done, reverts back to a crushed but kind spirited individual.

I recommend taking a troupe of antiquarians on a Slumber Party run.
Take four of them, go on a long dungeon, and camp out the first room you find, twice in a row. Have all of them trinket scrounge each camp. Then, flee and abandon the quest.
Instant 8 trinkets (or 12,000-ish gold)

Use the Antiquarians for cash money. They're pretty decent units that can get stuff done and it can be a lot more pay out for far less grind.

My heroes kept heart attacking right and left after that, but thankfully the vestal I had kept people alive enough to finish the dungeon and leave.

I'm still just grinding out four parties that have nothing but specifically useful quirks in each of the four dungeons. What teams does /dark/ use for each zone? I've got */PD/Crusader/Hellion for the weald and Vestal/Vestal/Crusader/Crusader for the ruins, but I haven't messed with a group for the others.
>>
>>165636242
The secret to dealing with them is knowing that they can only hit position 1+2 if they're in position 1+2 and 3+4 if they're in position 3+4. With that, you can greatly reduce the damage they deal with someone like the MAA guarding a target or simply stunning the ones that can hit vulnerable targets.

Also, their accuracy is somewhat poor compared to other enemies, so consider using a few solos from the jester or suppressing fire from the arbalest. A couple hits of that will drop their hit rate to less than half.

Fanatic is going to be a new boss that shows up when your characters contract Crimson Curse. No idea if he's going to be recruitable or stay dead or anything of that sort, but I doubt he'll end up being friendly. I've heard we're getting a new area and enemies with the DLC. I don't know if there will be new classes as they haven't officially stated much about it beyond The Fanatic, but they've said they want it to be big so I'm pretty confident we'll be getting a new class or two. Personally hoping they play with the Faith system more in the DLC so there's less downside to using the Abom regularly or just not using him or the three Faithful heroes.

I think that town event specifically refers to heroes who aren't doing anything at all. So not even doing stress relief. Might be worth looking that up though, I don't know for sure.
>>165641639
Depends on the character I'd say, but I think it's either Weapons-Armor-Skills or Armor-Weapons-Skills. I think a case could be made for either and I've seen it done, I personally prefer Weapons-Armor-Skills because I run DPS parties a lot and the speed/damage/crit upgrades are imperative to that.

>2 Crusader 2 Vestal party

This is awesome. I wish named parties gave some sort of buff, even if it was a +scouting or -stress secondary perk, as opposed to a combat perk.
>>
>>165644956
I like all the unique names they have for parties. I wish they had some more, but a 4 party combo of 15 different classes is a lot of combinations.
>>
>>165644956
The holy party combos are really nice. The Faithful camping bonuses are fucking great from the Vestal.
>>
>>165645345
I JUST figured this out as I took them camping for the first time. Holy fuck. I really hope they add future secondary traits akin to Religious in more expansions. People have been suggesting Necro or Vampire classes, would love to see camping and maybe even supportive skills that synergize with an Undead or Vampyr type classes. They really have something here with the Religious trait.
>>
>>165645428
It has a lot of potential and could be developed into some really interesting party combination choices. Could add more depth to camping and classes.
>>
>>165645428
Damn son you didn't know that was a thing? That's the bread and butter of the only Faithful party lineups. Especially that group double buff from the Vestal.

/vg/ is shit at doing what it's supposed to do. I've tried following different generals over the years and all i've ever found are stagnant groups of circlejerkers memeing around, bumping endlessly for no purpose and ignoring anyone trying to start an actual discussion. If the resident samefags are autistic enough you might even get report spammed because you triggered them in some way, like mentioning a mod they don't approve of or saying a certain character is bad.

/v/ is a better place to discuss games if you're lucky enough to not get immediately pushed in the archive by the countless shitposting. Keep this general up long enough and you'll see it devolve into a series of turningtides.gif and ancestor quotes used once an hour as page 10 bumps.

This reminds me, +DMG modifiers don't apply to say Bleeds or Blights on like, Abom's acid or Bounty Hunter's bleed hook or anything, right? There's no way to increase the DoT damage they deal, aside from just leveling the skill up for some of them?
>>
>>165646807
Is Rabies good? I usually just remove it asap as I value the ACC more
>>
>>165646971
DMG mods don't change DoT damage; the only modifier that helps DoTs is any sort of +crit, because with a crit those sort of skills get an extra 2 turns of DoT applied.

>>165647079
For -10 ACC you get +15% damage. Almost invariably, this causes characters to hit a lot harder than normal, at the cost of some consistency. It's certainly the most beneficial of the diseases - if the only that's positive.

how hard is it to make a custom class?

>>
>>165648249
The sprite is probably the hardest. I tried it before but you have to fit a custom one into one of the original sprite's size, not to mention you don't see the actual border of each sprite.

The lighting is terrible too. It varies a lot depending on your torch level and looks really bad.

On the other hand, abilities are much easier. You just need to look up some of the original codes and edit them accordingly. I messed around with that once and make jester finale hit the entire formation with +99999% mod. Good times.

I mean stuff in the vein of Darkest Dungeon, or Metal Slug, even though it's less detailed even stuff like Final Fantasy Tactics. If anyone is into any sort of sprites anymore, it's all pixeelated crap.

On day like 5 of owning the game I realized like half of the classes are chicks and half are dudes. Made me wonder if that was intentional or if it was just a matter of taste. I don't really want to know, so I'll choose to believe it was just a matter of taste, and they weren't trying to be like "GIRLS SHOULD BE REPRESENTED AS MUCH AS THE GUYS!" and all that bullshit. The one thing that made me wonder that though, was the PD. Because I automatically assumed it was a dude, because that's just how it is, the Plague Doctors in games are always male probably because the majority of them were probably male back in the day.

>>
>>165632026
None of the dungeons really bother all that much anymore, but if I had to choose my most hated to enter without preparation, I'd say the weald.

The fungal brutes will either stack blight on your front two heroes or tear into a marked target, the artillery will stack tons of blight on your back line and if you drag them to the front, they'll just retreat while stacking blight on your front two guys, dogs aren't super threatening but can hit anywhere in your line, stack bleed, and have high dodge so you might have trouble dealing with them before they rack up damage, fungal giants have no real tricks to deal with them beyond stacking damage reduction to alleviate treebranch smackdown, and hags can put a lot of stress on your party while still having high dodge. You really need blight resist trinkets to help overcome the DOTs before they stack to ridiculous levels and a man at arms to try and reduce damage from most of the weald specific enemies, but if you can get both of those, you reduce most of the threats in the place to nothing.

Best trinkets for 4 houndmaster party ?

So is there actually a reason to clear out all the level 1 bosses or should I just move onto the next stuff?
>>
>>165663176
That's why I like the crusader though, it seems like back row slots are always in demand while most of the front row characters are good, but I feel like anything can go there as long as it has a good amount of health.

Plague Doctors, Arbalests, vestals with direct heals and stuns, and healing occultists all demand position 3 or 4, while position 2 is usually occupied by someone like a bounty hunter or highwayman or one of those offensive vestals. Only my position 1 has some flexibility on who to put there, which is usually filled by a MAA, Leper, or Crusader, and by putting a Crusader there, I get stuns, heals, stress heals, and a tank all in one spot, freeing up more positions in the back.
>>
>>165665137
explain

do i just sit in the back guarding and buffing?
>>
>>165665591
I wish bosses had a little more reason to kill. The champion trinkets they drops aren't always that useful and it's not like you get anything for getting rid of them. It would've been nice if they granted some boon when raiding the darkest dungeon at the end by killing them, and would've made a good strategic choice for NG+ when deciding if you should kill a boss or just try and bust through the DD.
>>
>>165657546
A lot of the time you won't even notice unless it's a big increase or you have absolutely no way to counter stress in your party.
>>
>>165666549
Either that or use him in a shuffle party. They're both valid. People bash 4th row MAA, but his buffs and guard are so good that if you have a strong party comp you will literally never notice the difference in damage from the MAA not attacking.
>>
>>165665591
You get special trinkets and an achievement. Those missions also give a fair bit of dosh and it's fun to mess around with the mechanics.

Only reason I bash 4th row MAA is that, unlike a lot of other fourth row characters, all he does is defend and buff. Not being able to contribute to damage in a pinch is sort of what ruins it for me.

It's still kind of cool with a recovery charm and a buffed out vestal group healing everyone for 6-8 health a turn while the MAA is getting 24 and taking almost nothing.
>>
https://arnaud.rocks/darkest-companion/
>>
>>165678501
He has a chance to do it on the second turn and an increasing chance every turn after. The only surefire way to stop him is to kill him on turn two before he moves or continually stun him from there on out.

I like to pair 4th rank Guardian Shield MAA with rank 2 Profane Scroll Vestal.
>>
>>165680495
Precisely the party I use it in. MAA defends whoever's in the most danger, vestal patches him and everyone else up. Throw a jester or a crusader in and you can outlast pretty much any fight short of a shambler.

I started writing up a hero to fit in with a Crusader/Leper/Vestal/X combo, but there isn't a whole lot of ground it could cover without simply being a composite of other heroes or breaking the game. I had tried to make one called the Confessor, which had the following abilities and who's major focus was on debuffing the enemy, healing stress, and whipping his allies into a frenzy, but I don't it's anything new beyond a synergy with healing death's door allies to prevent them from just getting beat down again next turn.
>>
>>165686648
The classes seem to cover pretty much all the combat stuff you could think of, so why not cover different like the Antiquarian does of a support role outwith combat? Maybe better scout/camp/trap abilities or being able to hold/scavenge more practical items (not treasures) from dungeons?

I haven't played DD in a long time and I forgot how I used to handle the Hag. How do you guys usually go about it?

I was planning on going Arbalest-Occultist-Highwayman-Helion, since there's a marking and a bit of bleed going on, plus I can always buff up my Helion with a camp before the fight so that if someone else gets traped in the pot she can knock it down. Would this be an ok way to go about it?

I used to go with a lot of flexible characters that could hit her no matter where they were. Never knew who'd get grabbed, so instead I prepared for any of them to do so and focused on killing her that way. It was usually Bounty Hunter/HWM/GR/Vestal.

Crusader has a good Stress heal. Leper and Abom have great self heals for stress. Houndmaster has an alright group stress heal, the thing making it weak is that it's on a 67% or so chance to proc so it's not really reliable.
In terms of camping skills no one can beat the Jester's for stress relief, but all those same classes I already mentioned, with the addition of Vestal for Faithful characters and Hellion if you have Medical Herbs, are also varying degrees of helpful with their unique skills.

No prob. In addition, if you're finding yourself having trouble with HP there are a couple party members with exceptionally good camping skills for that. Arbalest always comes to my mind due to her cheap, being only three cost, full party 35% HP heal.

A pure utility/buffer/debuffer with no damage dealing or stress/healing. Give him the ability to swap his position with an ally, provide new or uncommon buffs like life leeching or riposte to other allies, maybe a debuff that has a chance to cause enemies to misfire and hit their own allies.
>>
>>165686648
More religious classes
A class focused on scouting/finding secret rooms
A class focused on acquiring more heirlooms
A meme class that heavily relies on RNG like the occultist heal does
A vampire hunter class ala Blade that benefits from the crimson curse while also dealing extra damages to vampires, and that can turn other party member vampires while camping

What this game honestly needs is more dungeon mechanics (like scouting, camping, shit like that) to keep it interesting because right now theres not much to it
>>
>>165703301
I think if they ever add an additional ability to classes, MAA needs that one. Some sort of ability to force an ally to move to a different position.

Here are just some ideas

A norman-style character with an almond shield and arming sword as well as a nasal helm, he came to the darkest dungeon to be known as a famous warrior, wants his famous combative exploits to be put within a tapestry??

A saxon/germanic tribe/pagan? type, with a dane axe and a distinct sutton-hoo type helmet from the vendel period. He could be a noble pagan coming to avenge his ancestor in a religious way (although the ancestor killed himself, maybe this could work?)

A knight in full plate, wit ha hammer, unlike the crusader or man-at-arms this guy is here for land claims, not for religion or because all he knows is war.

Are these ideas shit or are they in the right direction??

Those are probably too close to what are already in the game. Hellion is a Pagan barbarian, the Crusader and MAA are both heavily armored frontliners.

You'd probably want to think on the lines of "Byzantine Tagmata Cavalryman" or "Islamic Roaming Preacher" in terms of flavor. If thats not what you want to do, they need to be mechanically unique from the other heroes.

I hope they add more classes with special traits, like Antiquarian's ability to find extra treasure and whatnot. Not necessarily stuff for finding items, but something along those lines. Perhaps classes that interact with your Torch level, or Scouting, or Curios, etc.

Dankest Dungeon uses a file extension called .darkest

I don't know what exactly it is but it's basically a lua file. So everything important is in plaintext and easily readable. So you'd open a darkest file and tell your OS to use Notepad++ to open them. Now here comes the easy part.

>Press Ctrl-F
>Go to Find in Files
>Tell it to search your darkest dungeon installation folder
>Search for something ubiquitous like blacksmith

Now we can actually make this a step easier by glancing at the folders or alternatively downloading a mod that edits what we want to edit and see what it did. For the blacksmith which you care about it's in

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DarkestDungeon\upgrades\buildings

So to save time and not search sounds and all these folders we know its not in.. yeah. Just search there.

Well that's obviously weapon upgrades at the blacksmith.

Again that's pretty straightforward it's what we're looking for. The price.

And here is what you want. Just change the amount to what you want.

Then repeat for each level of upgrades, and each building you care about. Alternatively you could download a mod but really we're talking under five minutes of work here.

I gave it a shot. Reducing stress to zero did not remove the virtue.

HOWEVER.

Ending the dungeon did remove the virtue.
>>
>>165719550
On this note, there aren't any classes that somehow have more of a chance to roll a Virtue, are there? I ask because oddly enough the only classes I've had become Courageous or Hopeful, etc. have been Vestals and Crusaders.

If that's pre controller support then yes, unless you're running this game on a toaster in which case no. That update gave some players a heavy CPU/GPU load for some reason and it hasn't been fixed yet. They have a rollback though if you wanna update to right before that.

HoundMaster is the best character in DARKEST DUNGEON. There's no need to tell you what he

can do, because he can do everything, but I'll do it anyway. He has awesome damage, can

heal stress you, a great bleed, a great guard, arguably the best (through certainly the

easiest to use) mark, a nice self heal, compatible with every composition, more bleedings,

even a stunt. He can shuffle, cross up, turtle up, pressure, bait, move, space, zone, run

away, and bake a cake. He is the Alpha and the Omega. He can be a battery, he can be a

user, and he can be an anchor. Open an orphanage or do the accounting (good thing he can

only be one of those at a time).He is a fine choice for a beginner
>>
>>165720494
>a great bleed

I think all classes have a 30% chance to go virtuous. I don't think it changes depending on the base class.

>>165720494
t. Hound Master
>>
>>165720075

Religious classes have very rare trinkets to give extra roll virtue chance. But its shit since they dont keep it after dungeon.
>>
>>165721475
I don't know if I agree with that. On Medium/Long attempts, having a decent chance at getting a virtue AND reducing stress by 60 is pretty good.

Yeah, you don't keep the virtue and that's pretty fucking annoying. But when it works, it works really good and keeps you going without having to spend time on it.
>>
>>165721704

Virtues are "win more" because if your party depends on rolling a virtue its shit since its random. You always want to be able to handle an affliction or you would just retreat to keep from an affliction cycle where you have 4 people rolling 10 party wide stress a turn.

If the virtues gave the people a positive quirk after leaving the dungeon from a selected pool depending on the virtue it would be pretty nice.

>>165721994
mm. I don't know, I think you're undervaluing them as a way to mitigate disaster. But they are luck based so it's hard to disagree. It is probably always better to have a robust team than have a lesser team with a chance of saving itself in bad situations.
>>
>>165710995

Yes there is
>arbalest
>Occulist
>Houndmaster
>Booty hunter/MAA street fighter

Occulist is your -dodge mark, houndmaster is your -prot, maa/booty hunter are your debuff/stunner along with your Houndmaster. Arbleast is your cannon to hit the occutist target on turn 1. Having on guard on your occultist along with a +debuff chance trinket so the occultist always acts first is godlike.

Oh yeah and this comp is shit if you run into hosses that need to be bled/blighted like Hag. You would want a +Blight chance trinketed PD/Grave robber/hellion/etc combo for that.
>>
>>165720690
It's 25%, minus 5% for every level below the dungeon they go to (Which is a little strange, there's a single level tolerance in doing dungeons, so a resolve 4 hero can enter a champion dungeon without penalty, but a resolve 3 will get -5% to virtue chance for being too far below.). There's a few trinkets in the game that increase virtue chance, a few class specific ones, but mainly Hero Rings which give +15% chance and the tentacle idol which gives +25%. 60% is the cap on virtue chance.

If you're looking to exploit it, you can continually hit 100 stress and then lower it to 0 to remove the affliction until you get a virtue. +virtue chance trinkets can help you get there faster, and after a hero has a virtue, you can remove the trinket and move it to another hero. Practically speaking though, there's very rarely a good time to do this, since you're usually going to be able to complete the dungeon normally by the time you finish cheesing out four virtues, and it's somewhat difficult to find a stress causing enemy you can keep alive and out heal to get it in a single fight. Still though, if you get it, you might as well snuff your torch because you'll never go above 100 stress after getting a virtue.

Personally, I don't like virtue trinkets that only provide virtue chance because they're not helping anything before you hit 100 stress, and even then they're just a chance to get a virtue and not an affliction. Only time I make an exception for that is if I have a very underleveled hero in a dungeon since if he rolls a virtue he's considerably easier to take care of and you've never going to be able to stack enough stress resist on him since he'll get +25% stress per level under the dungeon he is.
>>
>>165722271

Actually, its just Crusader that gets a +virtue chance very rare trinket. I thought it was Vestal/Leper too but I was wrong.

Have you guys tried out a 2nd row vestal? She's actually pretty good in the right party.

>>165637208
>>165686648

To be honest, I hope we don't get new heroes. The devs have a hard enough time making sure the current crop of heroes we have is balanced, adding new ones to the mix would cause endless bitching about them being over/underpowered and classes being redubbed as "just a worse version of X."

>>165703594
>What this game honestly needs is more dungeon mechanics (like scouting, camping, shit like that) to keep it interesting because right now theres not much to it

I think a good idea would to have curios be compatible with more things. Right now, for most curios, you give it the right item to get a reward, or waste it to get nothing.

But what if they had different results? Many curios either give you a buff or treasure, but it'd be cool if they were curios that did both depending on what you give them. You can choose to lose out on loot, or buff yourself so you can better weather the enemies ahead.

>>165637561

Back when they introduced the Protection mechanic, maggots had like 70-90% protection. The devs toned it down after a while, but when the cove came out sometime later, they dubbed the snails as sea maggots as a reference to the earlier maggots with obscene protection.

>>165644024

I'm waiting for the patch.

What about an assassin based off the Persian order lead by the Old Man of the Mountain?

Since we already have a crusader, I figured he'd be somewhat of the crusader's opposite thematically (heroic/villainous, European/middle eastern, tanky/squishy, etc) without having to go with an edgy dark knight.

Mechanically, I figured his/her weapon would be a poisoned dagger (since we already have plenty of heroes that inflict bleed, and no blighter meleers besides Abomination) and a shuffler hero like the jester and grave robber, with the difference is that most of his attacks move him backward though the ranks instead of forward (the majority/most powerful of the moves in these games shuffle you forward, with there being no move that shuffles you all the way to the 4th rank.)

It should be a nomad mercenary. Uses a spear and compound bow. One of his bow abilities would be a three-shot attack with low accuracy and low damage with each shot landing having a bleed effect. Buff his acc lower enemy dodge and he can be a ranger. Or he can use his spear to harry his enemies as a debuffer/duelist.

How do I not absolutely suck at champion dungeons? It feels like the biggest change ever from lvl 3 Dungeons, which are easy enough to handle for me. And yes, I did upgrade all skills and equipment, yet I mainly had to abandon at like 70% through medium dungeons before anyone dies. What is some good advice to git gud?
>>
>>165744390
So that you can dump half your saving into gearing him up? Reviving characters just cost too much when they come back with no skills and lowest equipment.

>>165744737

>>
>>165744647
Dump all highwaymen. Those guys rocked R1/3 but can barely compete with other classes at R5.

If you've been roflstomping every dungeons with lepers, you're gonna need to give him some ACC trinkets instead of DMG. The backrow monsters in R5 tends to have ridiculous Dodge.
>>
>>165744882
Not even Point Blank shots with gunslingers buckle and dismas head? It tended to crit and hit for days with ridiculous damage at times. Even Pistol Shot
>>
>>165745343
Even his pointblank is unlikly to 1-shot stuff at R5, especially since he can't only hit 1st row and that tends to be 40% or higher Prot tank. He can't tank much unless you kill the enemies quickly.

He's just not as versatile as other classes.

>>165744647
Champion Dungeons are meant to be unfairly difficult, because once you reach that point you can basically go into the Darkest dungeon and finish the game.
They're basically a "bonus".
Also half your roster becomes useless, due to every fight being a slog fest due to massive Dodge/Prot and Health pools
>>
>>165746012
You can try the mark combination like BH/HM and arbalest. I tend to prefer HM's mark since it reduce the most PROT.

Jester and another DPS might work too. His 1st turn Finale targeting the 3rd position is far better than HM pointblank. And with both heal and stress reduce, you can afford longer dungeons. Slow but sure.

Either way, make sure you give your leper ACC item. He hits like a truck and miss everything in R5 if you don't get him some ACC trinket or buff. Fuck those 40+ Dodge monster.

The only way I've figured out how to get it is by using this http://www.nexusmods.com/darkestdungeon/mods/147/?

When you go to download the mod a pop up comes up with a link to the assets to download. I'd advise making a backup of the heroes, trinkets, raid, localization, upgrades, and panels folders in your DD directory first. After that just copy over everything from the asset folder EXCEPT the localization folder, then run the localization bat. Once thats done copy over everything from the mod folder and it should be working.

Other than that I don't know any way to get the vanilla class, and this tweek of it doesn't make it overpowered or anything as far as I can tell.

I love second row vestal, but my last run didn't go so well with her.

I had no problems with health in the cove. My issue was that I paired her with an antiquarian and I simply didn't have enough damage to stop stress accumulation at the pace it went. All four heroes wound up afflicted, I failed to escape a fight, and wound up suffering a chain of heart attacks losing two tough rings, a blasphemous scroll, and a camo cloak.

It could possibly be a reference to the IRL Reynauld, who is usually remembered as kind of a jerk who'd attack priests and unarmed civilians and then proceed to take their loot.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raynald_of_Ch%C3%A2tillon

>He was always in need of funds. He captured and tortured Aimery of Limoges, Latin Patriarch of Antioch, because Aimery had refused to pay a subsidy to him. Raynald launched a plundering raid in Cyprus in 1155, causing great destruction. Four years later, the Byzantine Emperor, Manuel I Komnenos, came to Antioch at the head of a large army, forcing Raynald to beg for his mercy. Raynald made a raid in the valley of the river Euphrates at Marash to seize booty from the local peasants in 1160 or 1161, but he was captured by the governor of Aleppo.

>He was the only Christian leader to pursue an offensive policy against Saladin, making plundering raids against the caravans travelling near his domains. He built a fleet of five ships which plundered the coast of the Red Sea, threatening the route of the Muslim pilgrims towards Mecca in early 1183. Saladin pledged that he would never forgive Raynald.

>Most historians have regarded Raynald as an irresponsible adventurer whose lust for booty caused the fall of the Kingdom of Jerusalem. On the other hand, Bernard Hamilton says that he was the only crusader leader who tried to prevent Saladin from unifying the nearby Muslim states.

Dismas, on the other hand, is named after the thief who Jesus was crucified with. The other characters also have "official" names. It used to be that the first class member you'd see would have a specific name, but now it only happens with the crusader and thief.

>A knight in full plate, with a hammer, unlike the crusader or man-at-arms this guy is here for land claims, not for religion or because all he knows is war.

I'd fucking love this. I love noble knights and it's a shame that all we've got in the game is the crusader, and according to his backstory he's not actually a nobleman, just a peasant who had a comfy life in the woods but got too invested in holy wars. But, as other people have pointed out, the problem with the idea is that Crusader and MAA already fill the obvious mechanical roles if not the flavour ones.

Given that knights were excellent for cavalry charges, then maybe rather than being a frontline fighter a knight character should come with a horse and actually be more of a shuffler, who has some devastating attacks he can use when in the back of the party but doing so will bring him to the front and require that you waste time/turns getting him to the back again?

Excellent art by the way dude.

>>165708373
>>165733727
These I like. It'd be cool to have a jihadi character who can't be on the same team as the Crusader but still counts as religious for combinations with characters like the Vestal and Leper.

>>165709827
More magician characters would be nice but I'm not sure how much "lore" precedence there is for them, but obviously a Necromancer would make sense seeing as enemise use that sort of magic. Darkest Dungeon doesn't seem like a setting where friendly wizards exist.

What sort of magic do we see in the series? There's two flavours of Eldritch (space and sea), and for that we have the Occultist, but he seems to be more focused on the space based stuff and less so (but still a bit) on the sea stuff, so a crazy ocean cultist could be cool. Then obviously there's necromancy, but other than that I'm not too sure.

That's one of the biggest flaws with Vestal. It's sort of wasteful to put an accuracy trinket on her because she'll probably only spend half her time attacking at most, yet there's no Blasphemous Vial equivilent that gives accuracy and relevent buffs. Honestly, I'd rather the profane scroll give accuracy instead of a meager amount of prot, it's not like she's ever going to be in danger of dying anyway.

About the only trinket I could recommend for an offensive oriented rank 2 vestal would be the ancestor's signet ring, gives +10 ACC and +10% prot.

Is there even a better party comp than PD + BH + AQ + HWM? Mark synergy, move synergy, blight synergy, ridiculous PBS damage, dodge/prot buffs and status ailment healing. Dismas's Head + Dodgy Sheath makes the HWM an unstoppable beast that one-shots everything the Bounty Hunter flashbangs into rank 1, and if there's nothing there you can Guard the Antiquarian with him while he takes pistol shots at everything else, and she and the Plague Doctor team up to blight everything to death. It's godly. I know healing is limited but if I swap the PD with a Vestal I take so little lasting damage that the firewood just takes up a slot in my inventory. Bloodcourse Medallion is so fucking good and Junia's Head makes it even better.

what's your TOP 5 most powerful/annoying boss / monsters ?
>>
>>165630410
Crusader, Bounty Hunter and Hound Master.

Especially Crusader. It takes a special type of guy to scream "Y'all motherfuckers need Jesus!" so hard it wipes out an enemy party.
>>
>>165786175
HWM mark synergy is pretty weak compared to other mark classes though.

Why do you throw an AQ into the mix? MAA would be better for guard and buffing the team.

>>165787328
The one that immediately came to mind for me was a grizzled old sea captain, which is what you've gone for in your picture there.

Though, I don't think there's any enemy or player class in Darkest that draws its design from high ranking Catholic dress, which I imagine would work for some sort of cultist character (they're religious, after all, just with really fucked up gods). Like, stoles that resemble (or are) tentacles dangling from their shoulders, and a Pope/Bishop's crown that resembles the... head? crest? of a squid/cuttlefish.
>>
>>165784630

That is very true. Her trinkets are just trash. They aren't synergistic like PD's very rare.
>>
>>165788104

Then its not a mark comp. Here change the comp to

>MaA
>Something with blight/bleed, probably GR
>Antiquarian
>HWM

MaA riposting and protecting the GR.
Antiquarian protecting a riposting/PBS hwm

I don't think any of them except for the Crusader's Holy Orders are worth using. Too much of a gamble for something that doesn't help you in any other area, at least with Holy Orders you're getting the deathblow resist and stress resist on top of it.
>>
>>165795084
Too bad the wagon never drops me Crusaders that are not complete shitters
>>
>>165795334
As long as they have a decent positive quirk, I'd say they're worth getting. Having something like Photomania or at least Steady makes them pretty worthwhile. The rest can be cured pretty easy in the sanitarium.
>>
>>165795518
The thing is I have no intention spending money on them until they get to level 2. So they pretty much have to be either level 2 off the wagon or they gotta have amazing quirks.
>>
>>165795625
I guess it depends on where you're at in the campaign. I regret passing up recruits because now I'm swimming in money and do the free sanitarium quest like every other week. I can get everything else pretty easy, but quirks are hard to obtain specific ones.

Which really makes me wish adventuring in specific places would cause specific quirks to pop more often, IE doing multiple missions in the weald will start to give you weald quirks while doing missions with radiant light will give you light based quirks.

I just got this game on the Vita and I'm so fucking happy to find a great game for Vita.

Fantastic game, played all day yesterday and a little bit tonight, diving in more now.

Do most people do this:
1) Recruit 4 new people
2) Send them on short missions with just each other for a low risk level 1 on any that survive
3) repeat til wagon is full then climb them slowly up the levels in the same way (all level 1s til they reach level 2, etc.)
>>
>>165801116
I start by upgrading the wagon so I get 4 new units every week. Then I send them without supplies in pitch-black dungeons to gather as much loot as they can before pulling out. Bonus points if they make it to the end. Extra bonus points if even one of them is useable after it.

Just go with 2 stacks of torches (16 total). Since it's ruins, a qturian isn't so bad, but you better have a crusader and another damage dealer, and good camping perks.

I'm thinking antique-girl, arbalest (with medical camp perks), Highwayman, crusader. Outfit them with as many stress camp perks, then healing camp perks.

So now that I got back into this game I was considering making a new class mod just for fun. My idea is basically someone you'd have to be fucking crazy to choose, but the rewards are well worth it. Kind of like choosing pic related for a Souls run just for self imposed added difficulty and fun.

Some examples I was thinking up were
>Hits like a fucking truck but can be torn apart by even the shittiest monsters if you're not careful

>Buffs his damage and accuracy significantly, but also marks himself, almost guaranteeing he'll be targeted by everything on screen.

>can cause deadly bleeding,poison,etc. at the cost of a fuckload of sanity

>Alternatively, a really worthwhile heal/party heal at the cost of his sanity

>Camping abilities are all really beneficial but always double edged. Like lowering his health even more to decently cure stress/health/buff the party

Something like that. And my favorite being:
>An ability that can be used from any position, and Dows more and more damage the farther he is from the target. But it also hits allies. Want to 1shot something in the back? Put him in last position and have your guys take the hit. Or play it safe and keep him in the front/close to the front, and have a decent to mediocre attack that hits everyone.

Thoughts? Ideas? I can mod decently but when it comes to actually balancing it I'm trash. Could use some good ideas on how something like this'd work.

>>165783758

Besides Eldritch, we have holy magic used by the crusader and vestal. A squishy priest/zealot character could work. We have the vestal, but she is defensive, while the priest could be offensive, so much so that he even lacks the ability to heal or guard because he's too focused on smiting heretics.

There is also a strange magic used by the pig people. It should be noted that their "symbol" is not the same as the stress symbol carried by human cultists or the fish people, but something loosing resembling the face of a pig (notice the tusks at the bottom of the symbol in the background here, the swine drummer carries the same symbol.) So I'd argue this would allow room for pagan magic too. Since the crusader has the vestal, the hellion could have a mage counterpart as well, like a shaman or pagan druid. Or the occultist could have a melee counterpart, like the hashshahsin idea I had.

More bosses, more enemies, more curios, more random events in dungeons. The important thing is that there should be so much different shit that can happen or you can find in a dungeon, that each time you go, you'll have to adapt because it'll be different than last time.

Also, it'd be cool if there were branching paths for your classes instead of a straight upgrade. Like you can make your crusader a guy with a shield and sword, a two handed sword, or some edgy dark knight type guy depending on what path you choose.

>>165816915

What kind of mods are you looking for exactly? Cosmetic? Gameplay? There hasn't been mod support and the game is kinda hard to code for, so there isn't a wide variety of stuff to choose from. Mod Support is coming soon though so that'll change.

I've always heard it's pretty hard to make big mods for and easy to edit existing stuff if you know what you're doing. I think the support might be to aid big content mods as well as people who are interested, but don't know how to code at all? Either way I know they're going to be releasing more stuff about in game mechanics so either way it'll be helpful for people who like to number crunch their gameplay.

Darkest Dungeon
Turns out you can mod classes in this game pretty easily.
What classes do you think should be modded in.

I feel some sort of Peasant/Farmer class for flavor.
>>
>>165827574
it's like the jester except he reduces 50 stress from everyone and has a basic attack that does twice the lepers damage plus bleed plus blight plus he's my dad also he's invincible except he doesn't let the other heroes know and he can't die except to traps but hes naturally immune to bleeding stress blight damage and cant be moved because hes strong

So I've been using those position 4 trinkets for my MAA since I only just learned which positions are what.

Is backrow buffer/protector MAA shitty or not?

Imo MAA is better of being up front taking beatings, freeing up back space for squishier characters.
However, he can be useful by keeping a squishy character protected while they deal damage form the front lines, allowing them to in the front safely.

I have an idea for a hero. Right now I'm calling it "Ocean Caller" and it's basically a Water Bender. I'd imagine the weapon is a conch shell that can expel an infinite amount of magic seawater in it, which can change properties to be helpful or harmful based on the will of the holder.
Ability Ideas:
>[4,3]Purifying Brine: Heals 1 ally X-Y damage, cures blight, but increases bleed damage by Z on already-bleeding allies
>[4,3,2]Whirlpool: hits all 4 slots for light damage, shuffle, removes corpses
>[2,1]Tidal Wave: heavy damage on slot 1 with high chance to push to last slot
>[4,3,2]Drench: hits any of the first 3 slots, slows enemy and reduces enemy accuracy
>[4,3]Waterfall: hits slot 3 or 4 for high damage with chance to slow
>[4,3,2,1]Ocean Melody: Increases user and party member's speed by X for Y turns. Swap positions with target.
>[3,2,1]Salty Blast: increased crit on bleeding enemies and increases existing bleed by X, hits one in slots 2, 3, or 4
>[2,1]Razor Shell: Medium Damage on enemy in slots 1 or 2 with high bleed chance
I thought a hero that has an interesting interaction with bleed could be fun. Risky to use with an occultist healer (even though why are you running dual heals) or in high-bleed areas. It has great combo with other high-bleed classes like Jester, Houndmaster, or Hellion, even in a support role on slot 3. Ocean Melody helps with surprises and with shuffle parties in general.
What do you think?

When running Stress heals for an Abom group, assuming I'm going to be going beast every fight, would a Jester or Houndmaster be better for that?
>>
>>165831637
Depends on the length of the quest, I'd suppose. I'm thinking jester and houndmaster if there's camping involved - houndmaster to help in more ranged combat and camp stress skills, and jester to lessen the stress in combat and also while camping.

Otherwise, double jester of course.
>>
>>165827574
Well there's this >>165814270
but I guess I'm alone on that. Still think it's a neat idea. A terrible neat idea, but still. I love the ideas of making shit even harder for yourself in a game that's already a struggle at best and actively against you at worst. I guess I've got brain problems.

Whats a good comp for Darkest Dungeon? No spoilers please
Im thinking something with Occultist and BH/Leper
>>
>>165833968
That's a shitty question since there are a ton of ways to compose your party, and the effectiveness of that party depends on the location you're delving into.

For all purpose, I'd say arbalest in the back and carry a few bandages, or plague doctor in the back. Occultist in front of her, bounty hunter in front of him, then leper leading the pack. It's better to plan ahead and specialize (although it's more fun the first time around to experiment).

Friendly reminder for new players, Always bring an occultist to the weald once you get to veteran/champion. Giants are free health and destress after you -dmg mark them.
>>
>>165834454
Why is arbalest so good ? everyone seems to like her but it seems bounty hunter is better in every way to her ?
>>
>>165834582
Better for killing stress dealers in the back and can mark in tandem with the bounty hunter - for instance, if there's a particular nasty in the back, BH can mark, the. Arby can kill.

She's just a solid ranged, basically. If you want to go totally nuts, give the occultist the ability that marks and make it easy for BH and Arb to kill stuff.
>>
>>165827574
It's easy yes, but it's hard to make actual new classes since from what I understand, no one has any idea how to make skeletons for the art assets or something

Hes based on the leper king(even his name is the same). He intends to die fighting for a worthy cause because his disease marks him for death anyways. His people are seeing him off.

Which game options do you think are acceptable to leave out? Surely, the critical damage thing must make the game much less frustrating, as there is a much smaller risk of getting completely destroyed in a small stroke of bad luck?

And how is the corpse mechanic now? I remember it being very impopular when it was first released (even played the game in small sessions, but never gotten far).
