New patch fixing various issues that were keeping people from playing. Also Skeletal Defenders can guard and the Bone Bearer can attack from first position now.

for some reason my "#4" turned into a tripcode

So what new enemy is giving you the most trouble? For me it's the Skiver; fucker hits hard, has a lot of health, prot, and dodge.

Virago is pretty tough too, but the Bearer and Ghast haven't given me any issues so far.

>>167787112
I didn't meet the skiver or the virago yet, even though I did weald and warrens, must be lucky
the ghast is pretty annoying, but I think the bone bearer should have something to do at ranks 1-2

I SHOULD KILL YOU ALL! I SHOULD-

>>167787112
Bone Bearer has given me issues in full parties. Now that he can attack from the front he might be harder.
>>167787216
There's only a 20% chance to encounter one of them, so it's not super surprising if you didn't see them on your first run through.

>>167786721
>Skeletal Defenders can guard now
Fuck yeah I always thought it was lame they couldn't.

Has anyone here gotten the Shrieker's event yet? I haven't gotten it myself, but I think it's super cool they included it as a surprise.

>>167789123
Yeah, twice. Both times the game crashes upon entering the mission. Apparently there was a an update not long ago that fixed some technical issues with the patch, so many it can be done now.

>>167789343
Yeah they released a fix for the crashes like 30 minutes ago.

Eh. I tried it and had to retreat for my trouble.

+100 stress all around, this party can't deal with scrambling and didn't have the trinkets necessary to blight reliably

Got him to half, not even close. Week 3 was too ambitious.

Random change to map layouts.

>>167792220
I should've screencapped the ruins I had, the hallways were very oddly shaped, like almost an arc

>>167791908
Due to GR Poison darts that also bring a blight resistance debuff onto the enemy, it should be way easier after the first turn to get blight stacked

>>167792508
It was too much to ask for, the party scramble was REALLY bad especially with the skills these week 3 nobodies had available

Crusader to the back rank, and he only has 1 Forward. Didn't know Holy Lance.

GR to the front where she can do nothing at all, doesn't know pick to the face. She COULD move back 2 to rank 3 and start darting but that would mean pushing the rank 2 PD even further away from rank 3 where she needs to be to start blighting...

By the time I had my party in suitable conditions, one clapperclaw already had like 200% prot, two party members afflicted, and all around bad times.

He's a wandering boss that you have a chance to run into if your inventory is 60% or more full. It's more than possible to go multiple runs in a row without running into him, but the reverse is also true. He's an encouragement to make sure your parties have backline control, so take that into consideration when making a party as much as you feel you need to.

Unless you're playing in NG+/Stygian, there's no way to "lose" the game or make a mistake big enough to permanently screw you over. The worst that can happen is you being forced to grind a bit more.

There's a single event that can set back progress on your hamlet, but it doesn't appear until you're decently far in the game. It only hurts your hamlet if you skip it entirely though, failing it or giving up on it don't penalize you.

I suggest you just stop browsing the Steam Discussion Threads. They're pure cancer, shame that the Forum, SubReddit, and that place are the only places the devs visit though. Not that they're even aware this /vg/ exists (Which is like the major starting ground of most memes)

did they remove Hunger? I swear I haven't had a hunger event for quests in ages.

RedHook is pretty nice, I had a friend who thought himself as a game journalist (Of course he's not.) and asked RedHook for a review copy. They told him how many, and he blurted out 4. He already had a copy of the game and he only really needed 1. He gave away the other 3.

I wonder whatever happened to the other community managers. I was pretty sure it wasn't always just John

>>167840690
in readiant mode yes, there ar no hunger checks

Also, they said "opening treasure chests with key are now worth it".
They didnt before?

>>167841031
they are making a game they want to make, on their own terms, with a clear scope and goals, so it isnt plaguied by runaway bloat as most other indie games (and the main reason publishers are actualy needed). They are confident enough that it holds up well on the market on its own (and they are right), so they have no need to hide behind marketing and drama to get publicity, nor are they forced into "antiplayer" practices by publishers.

Studios like them are close to being golden standard, that others should be measured against.

I don't like that they gave the Collected Vestal an ability she doesn't actually have. The MaA and HWM both have collected versions of their skills, Head Games (Guard) and Headhunt (Open Vein) but out of nowhere the Vestal has two abilities, one of which is a buff she doesn't normally have.

From /tg/ with love

I really wish there was a way to assign specific trinkets to a certain character. Then when you've assembled your party for a mission you could click a 'Equip Trinkets' button and auto equip that party's trinkets all at once.

Just saw there was a big update to the game.

I havent played it in forever, I got about 70% through the game, would this be a good time to get back into it?

>>167861142
>>167861487
I second this, but the issue is how to be prepared for it. A Collector with that much variety would be incredibly hard to predict. They could totally do it though if they made him an actual boss you can fight if you meet certain conditions.
>>167862405
Yeah, but PBD gave Jester a lot of love since it seems like the creator's favorite class. Also he made an update like 3 days ago.

This is actually how G2A makes a lot of their keys, they generate fifty or a hundred fake emails and ask indie devs for review copies

Since indie devs are the most desperate for any free press, they give them away, then G2A sells those keys for half price - it's pure profit.

>>167873049
While I'm sure it's more work than to be asked of the devs (no sarcasm, I'm truly pleased with how far DD has come), it would be interesting to have the corpses of human enemies resurrected as "fresh skeletons" or something, still bloody from the flesh they shed.

>Low health but can cause bleed or has high crt or something

I personally don't mind them being brought back as they were since there aren't really any set rules for necromancy in the DD universe, but the variety would be neat.

I went blind.

My team was Plague Doctor, Occultist, Leper and Hellion and I just stacked blight and Bleed because the first two missions cripple me very badly the first two fights and I got pretty much paranoid and got everything in the store aside shovels out of fear.

That's pretty much what you should do for the darkest dungeon missions anyway, but without getting keys either. For the final darkest dungeon mission don't bother bringing food or torches though, it's just a boss so you don't need them.

What the fuck is this

What's a good strat for levelling up your heroes? I always feel like I have piles of Seekers and Apprentices, some Adventurers and not nearly enough Veterans. My week count is into the 70s or 80s by now and I've only managed to get 3 heroes up to Champion, and I've only got one Master at the moment.

Some recent boss runs which went poorly have now left me with even less level 3s - like only five or something, and two of thos are antiquarians. I've got this huge heap of level 0s and 1s and the prospect of levelling them all up seems daunting and tedious.

>>167896757
A good counter to stress is to just run heroes with stress-healing abilities. Jester's objectively the best for this, but Crusader and Houndmaster are also pretty good. Doing medium/long dungeons can also be helpful, since camping can remove stress effectively and even cure diseases if you brought your Grave Robber or Plague Doctor with you.

I have the same god damn thing happen to me every time. I brought two Antiquarians on a quest right before the update and I got maybe two money related curios.

>>167899546
Only do mediums and longs, they give more Resolve. You can always bring a low level into a higher level dungeon, preferably with a guard skill, to powerlevel. Thats about it, the game is kinda grindy by design.

>Starting a new save and have to deal with the first 10 weeks

Am I the one who think the early game is the hardest. I'd rather run torchless DD 3 times over than having to deal with this shit

>>167902194
It does demand that you be a bit more clever about your class usage since you don't have trinkets to bolster their stats. What mode are you playing on? I've been running Radiant and blowing through it so far. Absolutely destroyed the Necromancer and even managed an All Arbalest run in the ruins right before.

Hey /dad/, should I go kill necro for the very rare gun buckle or go for leper's fortunate armlet on the quest that's pointed? I want the armlet more than the buckle, plus I don't really need range dmg since I'm using hwm for shufflers. But gun buckle is much more rare and expensive so I should go for it asap?

Are lower level trinkets (common, uncommon, etc.) worth it? I very rarely remember or bother to give my heroes trinkets because the down sides always seem to outweigh any positivity, apart from on the way rarer trinkets which I dont really feel like risking.

>>167902475
>cursor not shown
It's the medium quest in Weald. I don't care about the difficulty since I cleared Shambler with no troubles using this party. inb4 CONFIDENCE

>>167902475
>>167902587
Armlet.

>>167902381

The stage coach RNG trigger me so much. Not the heroes but the bad quirk they have and Sanitarium is locked like forever

>>167902519
Depends on what trinkets they are. Stuff like the Slayers' Rings, Eldritch Killing Incense, or Stunning Satchel/Witch's Vial are good examples of strong common trinkets, while a lot of other stuff is only really worthwhile if you have nothing better. Good trinkets definitely make a difference in the strength of your heroes.

Did you do it anon?

>>167905429
Yeah. I got the amulet and pleased but DD crashed so I'm restarting the game. Also, is anyone doing a Radiant run but the game mistakes it for Darkest? I just noticed I could hold more than 6 food and the hunger checks were back.

>>167905581
I have. it was strange too since people said that radiant removed hunger checks yet here I am getting a triple hunger check in the same hallway, no joke

Ironically, this patch made the game more buggy than fixing shit. I just hope it doesn't crash in the middle of something good to kill my immersion.

They said they were experimenting with that in the Beta and that they might change it.

That's never been a thing and it definitely wouldn't be in Radiant mode. Either that's a bug or you're talkin' out your ass m8.

Strange crew map.

He was in the middle part.

Have any of you ever managed to defeat the Heart of Darkness only losing one hero?

I know it's possible if you burst hard enough, but you only get one try to hit it just right.

I've seen it done with no losses.

>this patch made the game more buggy
Gee I wonder if that's why it was a beta release that you have to manually opt-in to, specifically released to the community so we could test for bugs?

Nah probably some other reason

>>167909979
>>167910540
Grats, it's tough taking down shambie in the early weeks, no good trinkets, limited skill pool, and all that rot

>>167912162
They mention that exact story on the wiki so I guess it's some screencap from reddit or something

>>167912375
It's a video actually. You can find it on Youtube.

>De-stressed
There's a passive stress heal every week. You don't need to destress everytime. Just whenever they get afflicted or if you want to use them next mission and they have >50 Stress.
