Is it worth /dadg/? Should I just bring a standard champion mark team?

>>171674509
The trinket is ehh, the main point is killing the nest and getting gems from it. The shrieker has 3 moves, so all dots and marks fall off him in a single round. It also has 60 dodge but no prot, and killing it yelds no benefits.

>>171674509

It's not really worth it except for completionist goals.

Arbalest - HM - HM - Hellion reks it so easily that it's basically a gimme, though.

>>171674509
just bring a good healer, MAA, and people who can hit 3rd position. MAA nonstop dodge buffs and guards if anyone is dying, everyone else focuses nest (or heals if they're dying) and ignores the shrieker entirely. build entirely for dodge, hope you can kill the nest in 4 turns so you can get that fat money. and whatever you do DO NOT stun the shrieker

What if there's a new swamp area? Would make since with the mosquito emblem on the teaser art.

Because i'm a casual, i wanted to install the level restrict removal thing, but it seems it's outdated.

How do i do that manually? I tried editing quest.restrict.json and roster.variables.json to be similiar to the modded restriction file, but my level 6 heroes refuse to enter lower level dungeons than champion

>>171681174
For future reference you should play on Radiant mode. The level restrictions on that are so lax they're basically non-existent. If you want it in your current game then I believe the soft-launched DD workshop has a mod for that.

>>171681085
Would also explain the filename and the seemingly barren and murky area featured in the Fanatic's reveal art.

What happens if you stun it?

>>171700559
Not that anon, but I'm assuming they're referring to its timer. The Shrieker normally leaves after 4 whole rounds of combat, but if you stun it then the timer shifts and it stays longer, which you don't want if you're just going after the nest because he'll just keep waling on your guys.

>>171700559

People say that if you stun the shrieker, it won't run away and you'll have to beat it normally (it still counts as a victory if it flees) but I don't know if that's actually true or not.

It's always worth doing Shrieker missions. Your job is simple: 1. Break the nest for the free loot 2. Survive 4 rounds.

It's free money, shrieker trinkets, grace/eye quirks and a chance to recover lost trinkets; done in under 3 minutes. So long as you have teams that can hit hard and survive, it's basically a DD version of Pass Go.

Hello famulan, is this monster enough of an asshole for you guys? This is the variant for dungeons lvl 3-4.

Rapture is a 110% Bleed of 5 duration1 and Life Drain 2 is a heal of 7 if the target is bleeding (previous to the attack OR if rapture succeeds).

Looks great, it gives a new element of an enemy party designed specifically for harassment which makes them a new kind of persistent combo when you encounter them. If you're adding variants, make sure they come with a good gimmick compared to their original.

Don't add Rabies through, it would make them redundant and annoying since they would just be a stronger hound.

This. Also be careful with the healing they get on damage. It's a nice change of pace and I think there could stand to be more enemies with abilities like that, but it's a tricky balance.

>>171710174
Depends. If you're planning on using him more in the Weald/Warrens/DD then yes. If you use him all over the place then eh.

It's the 'fix everything' the patch. It's as significant as the Poise patch we got a few months ago which drastically change how some things work and the meta was largely adjusted.

This gen is dead af if we're talking about another game entirely. I will start making new threads when CC hits.

If you're not on Stygian, it's better to prepare exhaustively. This means collecting trinkets you're 100% confident in, and even grooming heroes with advantageous / optimal quirks.

K, it has been done.

Now I'm working on a very low hp high protect hight dodge% ghost unit whose attack is a 0 dmg 5 stress that stacks dodge chance and sets up a riposte that triggers only if you miss while attacking him.

>>171722746
Sounds interesting. How will you convey that their riposte only procs on a miss though?

>>171723209
Well the ghost could just have 1hp, can't riposte if it's dead.

>>171723209
convey? you just code it.

>.on_hit false
>.on_miss true

>>171723297
that would be the way to do it if the engine didn't had you covered.

????

>>171723460
Obviously you just code it, but that doesn't mean it's clear people using your mod. It works differently than typical Riposte and should be conveyed as such, because that information will directly affect how your players approach the situation.

>>171724351
yhea, but hitting a 3hp dude for 1 tree times is a much more quantifiable kind of success rather than having a 1hp dude with 80% dodge that makes your encounter feel like a rng fiesta.

In any case, the name of the skill can be enough to imply the dealio.

>>171724725
I'm not sure you understand what I'm saying. Riposte typically works whether the person with the effect gets hit or not. A riposte that only activates when it misses is a different effect, and needs to be conveyed to the player as such or else they will only understand through trial. Trail learning is good for certain things, but I don't think it's good for establishing a nearly mechanically similar effect with a slight difference.
I do agree though that a higher prot encounter with low HP is a better measure than something with insanely high dodge. It's part of the reason why people might find the Horrid Shrieker more difficult to damage than the Swine God, despite the latter's comparatively massive lastability.

>>171725393
yhea I understood my friendo, like I said, the name of the skills displayed when the enemy sets the riposte is more that enough.

as an on the nose example you you just call it "every time you miss..." and no matter how much of a troglodyte the guy behind the keyboard is he's bound to find out.

Slayer Ring

Sun Cloak
Moon Ring
Moon Cloak
Bloodthirst Ring
Fasting Seal

Those are the obvious ones since you can justify having multiples of all of them. For other trinkets its a matter of personal taste - Sacred Scroll and Blasphemous Vial are obiously GOAT trinkets but once you have two of each you really don't need more.

I'd replace the Arbalest with a Plague Doctor if you have one. PD / Vestal / HM / Hellion is pretty much the perfect team for that dungeon, and most of the game.

Always. Getting a really good trinket goes miles and they are one of the few ways you can mod your heroes to increase successful runs.

>>171789168
dont think so, you gotta go full autist because the prot is 100 and the debuff resistance for it is 200 on green
you can do it in radiant, go 4BH lvl 4 with mark maxed out on novice, ancestor's cream/debuff amulet and spam the shit out of it, your main problem will be the hag getting people in that will put his "second" health bar up and maybe the fact that you're trying to do stupid shit in a bossfight that you have to rush damage or die to the main target

>>171823675
I'd put it at 10 as well. They seem pretty excited and have put enough work into it to have whole new cutscenes, so I imagine it's a proper expansion and not just a typical content update DLC.

I think what's interesting to consider is where exactly they're planning on implementing this content. Are they adding new maps to the hamlet? Do you have to "travel" there? Will the new dungeons have 3 difficulties like traditional dungeons? Will there be level 6 difficulty dungeons/events? There really are so many questions and we have practically nothing to go off of.

>Self Only: If Religious Prevent Nighttime Ambush

I don't get it, isn't Vestal always considered religious? That's why she can't group with Abom

>>171824986
This has been really bugging me too. Anyone got any insight on this?

>>171824986
>>171825128

Most likely religious was supposed to be different when they implemented it. DD sometimes has "parts" don't don't mesh up with the whole that are changed in the future, or just forgotten about.

For example, when the game first came out of early access, there was a highwayman only trinket that increased his chance to blight. This was useless for him since he could only bleed.

You can also find "hobby barks" in the dialogue files, which are things they would say while using the "hobby" action (a scrapped mechanic that I'm assuming would be like the Encourage action that can be used on yourself.) These lines are just buried in forgotten.

It could also be that they might have had the intention or will change how being religious changes in the future, but had to work on adding new monsters, working on steam workshop, working on the art book, working on Crimson Court, and adjustments to the religion mechanics just got lost in the shuffle or left at the bottom of the to-do pile.

>>171824550
Agreed. I hope they don't give us too much info beyond some features to look forward to. The control of information is a big part of this game.

>>171824290
I'd bet money that the "Crimson Court" was a supplier to the Ancestor.

Is there any way to make an Antiquarian a viable healer? I have the antique candle and maxed out Fortifying Vapors, but I still don't think that'll do much. Is Junia's Head even worth using on her?

>>171880621
Well if you give her Candle of Life and Junai's Head, that gets you +80% heal skill.

And if you have a rank 4 Man-at-Arms with a Recovery Charm and Guardian's Shield that gets you +90% healing received.

I'd need to test this to get an accurate number but it should get you a heal somewhere from 9-12.

That should let you make the most of your heals. Switching out the other hero and Leper for two more Antiquarians will let you get slightly more healing if you give them Bloodcourse Medallions instead of the scroll/armlet, but you probably don't want to do that.

WATCH YOUR STEP

>>171888401
Bring someone who can deal good damage to any rank, if you can reliably kill the matchman every time he's summoned than you're basically in the clear.

Oh so it wasn't a mod, just fan art.

Post them if you have them?

>>171889509
That sounds like a good plan, just remember to set the Hellion up with Iron Swan. GD would also be a smart idea if you stack dodge, plus the thrown dagger is good for reaching the back ranks and does a bit more if you have a marker.

>>171889790
>GD
You mean GR?

>>171889509
Cannon has an impossibly too high to counter debuff resistance, you can't lower its prot, the mark will add some extra damage though.

Hellion is good but remember that she doesn't have anything all the great that hits third rank, so bring someone to compensate for that like a BH with finish him.

>>171890000
Yeah. I forget whether it's Digger or Robber half the time.

>so I'm a ghost trying to warn these guys about the futility of their endeavor and they just walk right past me!

So Houndmaster's Shaggy and Scoob, and I'd say Grave Robber works for Daphne. But who's Fred? MaA, Crusader? Highwayman for the ascot? And Velma?

>>171905843
Velma is the plague doctor. they're both brainy

>>171905843
>>171906095
fred is leper. there is already a pic out there somewhere

>>171905843
Fred is the one who places traps in all the dungeons.

It's been a while, since I have last played. Probably November or so. I have heard about the expansion coming, but what else has changed during that time with the game? Anything major?

>economy rebalanced
>easy mode added, NG+ is slightly harder now
>champion dungeons now have their own unique enemies
>new crow boss that steals your trinkets
>final boss buffed, vvulf nerfed

>>171910431
Was it Vulf himself that was nerfed or his encounter?

>>171910548
Both, he also doesn't appear until week 40 now. He's still the same as he was before on NG+, though.

>>171910431
Thanks for the info, you're cool anon. Sounds like some nice changes. I am going to play again to get myself ready for the expansion.

>>171910431
>>171910618
What did they nerf? I don't think he really needed it.

Why is Dismas only slightly distressed at being handed his own head?

>>171912201
That's because he still has a good head on his shoulders.

oh boy its, an 'enemy team gets three 40+ crits in a row' episode

>>171912201
I'm surprised that still isn't an achievement.

>>171912954
git gud :DDD

>>171912201
Going by the logic of Dismas' Head, would it be fair to assume that the pseudo-canonical names for the Vestal and Man-at-Arms are, respectively, Junia and Barristan?

Fan concept for a spider queen. What do you guys think? I think a spider themed miniboss would be cool.

yaaaa i have to say im pretty fucking bored

>>171914798
I thought the GR's canon name was Audrey.

>>171914798
So do we not have a list like this for the heroes added through updates?

for money quests bring other niggas with smaller heals and you will be set without going all out on antiq heals.
PD or arblest for that other 3/4 slot, leper, hellion, crusader for first 2, with MAA as a healless alternative since antiquarian can force guard on herself so MAA is free to riposate more niggers in the FACE.

Personally i think cove is best for moneyruns with PD-Antiq-leper/MAA-hellion. Hellion can cure herself, PD can cure herself and others so snipety cant do shit, Helion+PD can stun the entire enemy party in a single turn, and/or pretty much guarantee that 4th rank will die 1st turn, and whichever fishfucker tries spearing the back gets a fistfull of riposate to the FACE.

Abomination might also work, but i never use him because stress

>>171912201
The flow of time is convoluted

Does Dismas actually have a bark line upon equipping his head?

I always thought the explanation for the heads was like, they're physical manifestations of the madness of the characters, not their literal heads

i honestly feel like hellion is quite shit
there are better classes in general

>>171917843
And there's quotation marks around that name, showing that it's a purposefully false name.

Strange, the file must have been changed between then and now. Who the heck is Dana?

>>171920269

At least she's the hottest class.

>>171920429
Dana is someone who works at Redhook. She's probably trolling for some reason.

>>171920269
What makes her shit?

>>171920592
her kit is nice and on paper i think she is decent but i never got much use of her

stunning the first two usually doesnt mean much, the last two are the bitches most of the time and several classes can stun single target in the first two spot

the only thing i like is her bleed attack for some bosses but honestly houndmaster is just better for that too and i love the doggie mark

iono mang i just don't really like her in general, i know she gets a lot of praise and all

maybe i was wording poorly, she is not shit its just there are better classes or setups than bringing her or two of her along

>>171920269
She's the only hero that can hit every enemy from the first rank, and Barbaric Yawp is one of the best stuns in the game. Battle Trance and Revel are also really good camping skills.

>>171920819
Well she has two attacks that can hit the back two spots, and if you just need to stall out for heals/stress heals for a bit then stunning the front two is helpful, especially if rank 1 is size 1 and rank 2-3 is a size two and you get a nice stun off of that.

kasp

>>171921981
yeah i guess but i still prefer different classes over her, like a first spot BH or MAA

those can synergize with the rest better

>>171920819
Stunning the first two can matter a ton, especially with size two monsters and in the Darkest Dungeon.

>>171720058
where's your candle? If you don't have it, I can't recommend.

>>171925797
Can you only get the candle from Shamblers? I've never found a shrine with a good comp to fight them

Or rather, I should say that every time I've tried to fight a shambler they nearly wipe my party, I have no idea how to fight them

Always take out at least one of the little guys he spawns, they are very deadly dealing stress damage on attack and continually buff themselves with more prot and damage with each successive hit they land.
