Base surprise chance is 10% for both you and enemies. 75+ light gives you 25% more chance to surpise enemies for a total of 35%, 0 light gives enemies a 40% bonus for a total of 50%.

The only way to reduce enemy suprise chance to 0 is with trinkets or camping skills. Those are also the only ways to increase your chance to surprise enemies, caps at 65%.

Stacking surprise chance is OP btw.

Okay how the fuck you're supposed to beat champion fanatic ?

Bout to do the fulminating prophet but I don't really get the guide in the wiki. He seems to be manually destroying the pews? Does the Occultist debuff just trivialize the encounter to a point where he's harmless?

>Does the Occultist debuff just trivialize the encounter to a point where he's harmless?
yes, bring an arbalest, 2 occultists and leper, occultists spam mark and debuff on him while leper mops up the pews and arbalest blasts the prophet to oblivion

So I just tried my first Champion quest. Went for a short one in the Warrens, first encounter had a Swine Skiver on the back row that critted and nearly brought my entire team to death's door on turn two. What do you do to deal with these things?
>>
>>180930191
What a shame. I only have one currently and the stage coach is playing hard to get
>>
>>180930341
It's not.

You can't destroy the Hag's cauldron but you can destroy the pyre.

You can completly ignore the cauldron and quicky kill the Hag because she has only 135 HP and no PROT while the Fanatic has 203 HP, and 15% PROT that he often buffs to 40%.

He also deals much more damage that the Hag.
>>
>>180930546
> What do you do to deal with these things?
Stack suprise chance or SPD, especially first turn SPD and kill it before it gets a turn. It's that simple.

Newfag here what is the occultists purpose? I just got my first occultist and he was brought to deaths door in 3 rooms and then healed himself for 0.
The vestal just seems superior and less inconsistant.
>>
>>180932127
>Newfag here what is the occultists purpose?
Debuff, pulling guys to the front, hitting back row, and healing. His heals are more inconsistent but he can heal for a far larger amount than the vestal.

Occultist can debuff, mark, deal AoE damage to ranks 3 and 4, decent single target damage to ranks 1-3 and heal on top of that.

You know what I JUST noticed?

The cultists' crowns are the same as the stress effect on heroes.

Holy fucking shit. I have 100 hours in this game. Am I the stupidest person alive?
>>
>>180933632
Would you rather have 4 heroes doing something useful or 3? What are you oging to do when one of them misses, other than try to make up with a heal?

The bottom line is heals are fucking useless as long as the damage dealers still exist. The optimal play is to get rid of the damage source heal when the immediate danger is gone, not spam AoE 7 heal while getting hit by 6-14 with 7% crit chance and 3 blight.

More useful than running 3 heroes? I guess.

More useful that an Occultist that can greatly contribute in killing high priority targets ASAP and heal when it's time to heal? Nope.

>I'm sorry you can't appreciate a different, and perfectly viable, playstyle.
Almost everything is viable, not everything is optimal. I'm not criticizing you for using something that is sub-optimal, I do plenty of sub-optmial things as well. I'm criticizing you for thinking healbots are optimal.

Vestal keeps damage down to manageable levels. Your heroes have way more than 20 hp so they should survive even in the worst case scenario. Sounds like you don't have a healer to keep their hp up.

With my marking party, I ignore everyone else and drag him to the front with the first chance I get, stun him if that's not possible and pour all the damage towards his direction.

[Pagliacci]: Stress heal for your whole party by x-y, increase your stress by the total amount healed.

Basically the Vestal heal in that it does a low number to the whole party and a double edged sword in that it will rack up your stress. You could use the single target stress heal on yourself but that's two turns of not doing anything in combat.

If a single hero can outheal damage, this game would be easy. A vestal will reduce damage down to manageable levels while the team kills the most dangerous enemies. Throw a few stuns on the last remaining enemies and you'll be mostly healed by the time the fight ends.

Which is why you shouldn't even attempt outhealing damage.

Killing enemies before they deal that damage to begin with is better. Vestal can't contribute to that. Occultist can.

>Throw a few stuns on the last remaining enemies and you'll be mostly healed by the time the fight ends
Yes, this is when you are supposed to heal, when the enemy damage dealers are gone. The thing is Occultist can help with killing the damage dealers and then focus on healing when it's time to heal.

Take Vestal with 3 mega damage heroes, like HWY, GR, and Jester. Even on champion, with damage trinkets and finale you can pop two enemies round one usually, often before they get the chance to move. Vestal can't outheal 4 champion tier enemies, but she can usually break even once the deadliest one is killed, and catch up when there's 1-2 enemies left.

Not outpacing 4 enemies in heals isn't a problem when you start every fight with full hp.


Occultist is also very good, but the risk is very real. At champion level, any heal <6 from him is disappointing, with 0-4 being basically useless.

ex fucking dee

Sorry but blood doesn't fucking drop for me, how is that my fault that I can't provide it?
The crimson curse is bullshit gimmick, it's extremely easy to get it and I have no enough blood to supply ~18 cursed heroes.
Why the fuck am I supposed to kick them out of my roster just because of the gimmicky curse? I could use those heroes, they have upgrades and trinkets.

I really dislike that curse bullshit in DLC.
I literally had no deaths on Stygian and in new DLC save until now when I've ran out of blood, heroes started to act like they have affliction and pass their turns and move on their own, refuse heals and do fucking retarded shit. But I don't have afflictions, I know how to deal with stress, I don't even use Abbey and Tavern because I never need it.
But hey, fuck you for being good at this game, we will make your heroes with no afflictions act retarded and die because you will have no blood to supply them.

Just started this game. Honestly, it seems easy. There isn't really a "game over" per say. I'v only had at most, 2 people die in a dungeon. 1 person dies on average and it's always the new ones.

I'm currently grinding easy missions until I get two teams of four people that are good. Right now, I can say that I'm really liking a grave robber and plague doctor, but, only because the utility they have. They can easily die and honestly the one who has had the best overall performance has been the highwayman and the crusader. Everybody else seems like they fly or fall so far.

Killed 2 crocs already but had 2 heroes with death door debuffs and passing turns / refusing to get heals because of "craving" status (that's not even "wasting", fuck you devs). Vestal died because of literally uncontrollable circumstances.

This curse is bullshit, it acts like affliction but affliction is a fair punishment and you can actually manage stress by playing correctly. How the fuck can I manage blood usage if I have no blood, it simply don't drop for me. I barely have any to use it on "wasting" heroes and "craving" are already skipping turns and refusing heals like afflicted heroes with "irrational" and "paranoid" and those are one of the worst afflictions in the game.

2 wasting again
Blood is not dropping
Wasting -speed debuff fucks up the formation and makes 11 speed Jester have speed 6 and have a turn after fucking Leper and Hellion so he can't use Finale first

This is such a fucking bullshit mechanics. Gameplay is getting trashed because of RNG drops, not because of how you actually play the game and fight.
When I get affliction (and that never happens basically, only on Shambler or DD4) I know that I fucked up and could play better.
When I get "craving" or "wasting" because I have no fucking blood and get heroes act on their own and huge debuffs on them - I know that this BULLSHIT happened because the game provides no blood drops to supply those heroes and not because I played incorrectly.

Hell I didn't even use Abbey and Tavern because I never needed to cure stress, Sanitarium only for a couple of quirk locks. And my whole fucking roster is infected by the curse because it's so extremely common to get it, just 1(!) hit and your fucking hero is cursed.
And what, am I supposed to kick them? Are they not functional now? No they aren't, they don't even have stress, they have trinkets and all right skills and upgrades and I can finish the game with them no problem.
But hey fuck you, get no blood and start losing heroes because of bullshit debuffs.

Would quickdraw be a good lockin quirk for a BH? I already have Slugger and Warrior of Light on him
>>
>>180945218

If you're playing normally you can take as much time as you want, throw away as many heroes as you want.

Your main goal is acquiring money and resources to upgrade your buildings, and gradually put together a team of heroes you expect will perform well on harder dungeons. Similarly, rather than rush towards bosses as soon as possible, you want to pick quests with Trinkets you think are good.

You are encouraged to take it slowly and get used to the rules and heroes you need to use later.

However, you can't do this on Stygian mode (the "Hard" mode). The Crimson Court DLC also has a time-based element so don't activate that if you want to take it easy, leave that til near the end of the game.
>>
>>180945640

Speed quirks are the best quirks.
>>
>>180945640
>Would quickdraw be a good lockin quirk for a BH?
Depends.

If you want him to mark for others like Arbalest, it's good to have higher SPD so he marks first. If you want him to benefit from marks instead, his SPD should be lower than that of the hero who marks for him.
>>
>>180945640

Quickdraw is an undisputed top-tier quirk, you can lock it on any hero. Speed is a very valuable (and also VERY RARE) stat boost to have, and the first turn is the most important turn. Speed and Accuracy quirks are literally the best quirks in the game, everything else is on a different tier below these.

So there are almost no scenarios where you wouldn't just lock it.

That being said, Bounty Hunter is actually one of the few heroes that don't need Speed since you want him to move after Marks have been placed by allies. I would still lock it, though, you probably won't get much better.

>>180946218

I find my Houndmaster whiffs his attacks more then I would like, so probably. Even on a utility hero, finishing off low health heroes is part of being useful.

I usually go for defensive stuff on Houndmaster because I just need him to stay alive, but I can't really wait for those to roll round if there's an accuracy quirk on the table to take instead.

> Speed is a very valuable (and also VERY RARE)
This isn't really true and entirely depends on the hero in question or other heroes in the party.

Quick Draw and On Guard both give +4 SPD on 1st turn, the latter being a straight upgrade tha also gives +5 DODGE.

Both Quick Reflexes and Early Riser give give +2 SPD but the latter only if light is above 75.

Many trinkets give bonus SPD on top of other vital bonuses. Matchman Stick is pretty much a must for Arbalest for that very reason, +10% DMG +3% CRT and +2 SPD with no penalties is just too good.

Arbalest camp skill gives +2 SPD to everyone but her. Which is actually good because she benefits from acting after other heroes mark for her.

Many heroes have SPD buffs. Those don't help on getting the 1st turn though so I'm not a fan, I'm also not a fan of wasting a turn to get the other one quicker.

>Many trinkets give bonus SPD on top of other vital bonuses

This is patently untrue, though.

Most trinkets will provide something for every stats, but Speed is so consistently absent that people need to rely on Feather Crystals to get it. Matchman's Stick is a Trophy locked behind one of the most dangerous bosses, which is the second boss, in the Champion Weald which is literally the most dangerous zone in the entire game - it's as lategame as a trinket gets. Crescendo Box is one of the rarest drops; some people can play an entire run and feasibly never see one, meaning it's not even safe to risk giving to some heroes.

Similarly, the speed buffs that those trinkets give? All of them give +2, which is the same amount as from just Quick Reflexes alone. It's not just that Speed is rare and useful, but the Speed you get from Quirks is massively slot-efficient. Compare this to a damage quirk, which is 10-15% at most but trinkets give you 20-25%. Quirks give more than a trinket can where Speed is involved - in fact they are sometimes giving you DOUBLE the amount that Top Tier trinkets have.

Similarly you can never not stack Speed too much, as the way it is calculated means the faster you are the closer you get to being guaranteed as faster than enemies, and moving first in Darkest Dungeon = overpowered. You can only stack speed through quirks.

Speed Quirks are top-tier and truly nothing compares.

I agree quirks are a better source of SPD than trinkets are, but overall SPD bonus are not that rare.

Also, the DLC introduced a lot of new SPD sources and most of the are just ridiculously high. Passive curse is +1 SPD, craving/wasting is +2, bloodlust is +4, drinking blood while passive gives a total of +4 as well.

Baron's Lash adds +4 SPD for cursed heroes. The mirror adds +5 SPD vs. bloodsuckers so basically +5 SPD at all times when in Courtyard. Mantra of Fasting gives +6 SPD if cursed hero is wasting.

They're all good

Occultist is a good choice for a healer if you don't want to use a Vestal (either because the occultist is capable of bigger heals or because you want to use the abomination)
>>
>>180951039
All classes have their roles and degrees of usefulness; it's the party composition that's important.

Occultists, Man at Arms, Plague Doctors, Houndmasters, Vestals, Bounty Hunters and Hellions are excellent choices in most party compositions because of their excellent utility in most positions, having abilities that can debuff, mark, stun multiple enemies, apply DoT or heal multiple allies on a single hero

Crusader, Flagellant, Abomination and Jesters have some utility but are mostly restricted by positioning, unable to do much if shuffled or moved to unfavorable positions

Highwayman and Grave Robber are more focused on dealing damage and evasion tanking, offering not much combat utility but have the best scouting and trap disarm outside combat. They are also less affected by shuffling with their own repositioning skills

Lepers and Arbalests require teams to be built around them but they hit extremely hard and are good for bosses. However, get shuffled and they lose a lot of effectiveness

Antiquarian exists solely to make money but she's still serviceable in teams with MaA, HWM or PDs by stacking blight or forcing a riposted ally to guard her. Pairing her with a Flagellant is also legit in that it gets the Flagellant to low hp faster in order to use his stronger abilities

Okay lads time to form a team that can take out Champion fanatic. I need some theory-crafting;
he has 3 turns which makes bleed/blight viable, but since his blight resistance is high bleed is the only option. I thought about bringing a mark-team but it relies on positioning too much and the fight starts on a shuffle anyway.
Jester and flagellant can hit both position 2/3 with their bleed attacks but their base-damage is too low to deal with the pyre, in case they're put on it.
The team composition should also fit to one of the maps, as it's not a fight similar to Shrieker where you start off immediately
>>
>>180954749
the one on the workshop is not the 'original musketeer' in the sense that it's 100% like the arbalest mechanically, I don't think the workshop has trinkets either (confirm?)

Use an arbalest, occultist, booty hunter and hellion, so you have multiple ways to deal with the matchman and marks to deal as much damage as possible to the cannon. Occultist can also debuff the melee brigands to reduce their damage since matchman and cannon are the priority

Alright here's what i use for the cannon;
Vestal/Grave Robber/Houndmaster/Leper

Vestal over occultist because you'll be facing brigand fusillier that deals damage to everyone and divine comfort is there to mitigate it. Grave robber because she'll be your main brigand fuser disabler, with the right trinkets (man-slayer, any damage) she can one-shot fuser. Houndmaster because this is weald and you need a hero with guard that can protect your first two rows in case you face a Giant. Just protect your first row and you'll be immune to treebranches and mushroommen, and houndrush can attack any position in case grave-robber can't kill fuser on her turn. And you need a leper so that you can cleave the first two row, killing the brigand while damaging the cannon. This comp can easily beat champion weald and brigand 16 pounder, as i have done it three times already.

well i have a screenshot right before the fight. Dodge/Stun is alright, you can guard then stun the giant, then guard rinse&repeat till he's dead but only when he's alone, otherwise keep spamming guard on leper.

Going to fight the shrieker for the third time, both times I managed to kill the nest, however a hero died each time.

This time I wont bother with the nest, have plenty of gold aswell as the bank built. Instead I just want to ensure I can get everyone out fine, what do I take? Like since this is the third time I fight shrieker I guess he will be the Horrid version

How I deal with the shrieker: Hire 4 new characters, preferably with heals/self heals if possible. Send them in to turtle until he flees. Get trinkets back. Boot all 4 of them. Works every time.

I'm honestly shocked at how awful that crimson curse is. Can't have afflicted heroes if you properly fight and use Jesters and HMs but devs are still shoving into your throat basically the same afflictions rebranded with the crimson curse name.
And on top of that you get them not because you fuck up in fights and not because you are not dealing with stress but because of the lack of blood in your inventory.
It's not even something that you can buy like food or holy water, you can only get 2 blood each week and the rest is RNG drop. If you are unlucky and you have a lot of cursed heroes - get fucked. Get rid of those heroes, grind every single room in the dungeon, rush the Baron, whatever. It's shit.
Darkest Dungeon was balanced enough with your own skill outweighing the incoming damage and stress - make good turns, understand the enemy, retreat if something is fucked up. Meanwhile in Crimson Court - le farm blood or you get random curse-afflictions with heroes passing turns and not getting healed because you got no blood from the enemies or curios.
You hated food checks and grinding? Hehe, get even worse blood checks and even more blood grinding.

So I decided to expand my ideas on the Witch-Woman thing I mentioned last night, if anyone's curious. I still like the idea of a class with different stress mechanics

I have killed the shrieker about 8 times with this party
Arbalest-Occultist-Houndmaster-Hellion
Make occultist mark bird with -20 dodge mark, then just fire away.
Has yet to fail me, can usually kill in 2 rounds.
>>
>>180965714
At what point did you think to yourself "yes this looks good and I should post it"?
>>
>>180965494
I have to agree after playing a while I'm not a fan of the curse itself. You can minimize it to a degree by being smart in your engagements with bloodsuckers but overall it's just way too much RNG. The curse just feels like some annoying bullshit.

It would be better if they made the chance of getting infected way lower but the effects on characters a lot more meaningful. Unique vampire interactions and barks for each class, stuff like that.
>>
>>180965714
That's an interesting gimmick but you need a character to attach the gimmick to. Is she a healer or a damage dealer etc. What role would she fulfill and why would you take her instead of X character?

Damage dealer was what I had in mind; she'd be capable of good consistent damage at the cost of continuously maintaining her stress so it doesn't get out of hand

>>180966146

I would've just called her Witch but some dude already made a class mod for that
>>
>>180965874
On top of that it often "stuns" your party when you move in corridors or even in fights. Those animations are extremely obnoxious and not even a mod for faster animations helps.

I just have a few questions

How do I increase the amount of total heroes past 28? is there a limit that would risk hurting the save or file? I only wanted at most 5 or 6 more

I decided to change one of the config settings in my current file, I figured that would prevent me from getting the achievement when I beat the game, if I turn the setting off now would that fix it? if not, is there something I can edit to allow the achievement to be obtained?

is there a way to increase the stack sizes for certain items? I hated how portraits could only be carried in stacks of 3 instead of 6 like busts and deeds.
>>
>>180966423
So a glass cannon kinda class? Could be interesting, game could use more of those anyway. Maybe have an enormous buff she can give to a teammate for some versatility, I like the idea of big risk/reward.
>>
>>180965714
I kind of like the idea. Even though the flagellant is now our "playing with stress" class in a way..
>>180966000
I agree with that. I would try to avoid having her as another primary to build your group around. Maybe group stress/buff/debuff skills could make it worthwhile.

I definitely imagine her being more independent from the rest of the party barring being healed, although she'd need some way to avoid taking damage and I'd feel giving her a skill for that would be unbalanced

>Crusader, Flagellant, Abomination and Jesters have some utility but are mostly restricted by positioning, unable to do much if shuffled or moved to unfavorable positions
I don't have the DLC but are you serious? Crusader can use most of his skills from rank 1 and 2. If he gets shuffled to the back all he needs is to be able to hit rank 3 and 4 (if there is anything in that spot) and holy lance to move up. Jesters have THREE movement skills and he can move WHERE EVER he wants. He gets shuffled to the front? Finale. To the back? Dirk stab. For the Abomination his human mode is somewhat limited, but in his beast form he can shift ranks as well.

Risk management, stun/kill instead of healing, target the stress dealers
>>
>>180955009
I have heard a convincing argument that mark parties lose effectiveness on bosses. Due to the amount of turns bosses get the mark runs out quickly so you end up using a person constantly just to keep a mark on rather than damaging.

Is it just me or is the Swine Skiver just fucking bullshit compared to other champion-exclusive enemies.

>Bone Bearer is not much of a problem if you let him act once or twice as lnog as you don't leave corpses, the DMG buff hurts but it's reasonable and he will often waste it on bone royalty etc.

>Virago is not that bad either as long as you don't leave corpses, her damage isn't terrible

>Ghast is pretty harmless, Cove is not very stress heavy to begin with

Meanwhile the Skiver has strong AoE with blight on top of it/extremaly strong single target damage with fucking 19% to crit and stun. I'm pretty sure his average damage output is bigger than most bosses.

Yeah, that works. Her more beneficial skills could be limited to being campfire skills too, like reduced stress/increased dodge for the next few battles

I do still kinda feel like skills that heal her stress during battle should have minor downsides, at the very least. Even if it's just simple debuffs that pile up over time

The thing is, you can't always expect to act before him.

Ambush chance caps at 65% and the most you can have without camp is 60% 910% base, 25% radiant light, 20% lantern, 5% cartographer).

If the ambush doesn't proc, he has 9 SPD, meaning you would need at least 16 first turn SPD to be guranteed to act before him. This is doable with first turn SPD quirks/trinkets.

But even then, you need to either stun or move him. Both skills can be resisted unless you increase move/stun chance with trinkets, but you already need a first turn SPD trinket. Then there is the fact that both can always miss.

Also, move abilites can only bring him to rank 2 if he spawns in rank 4 and he stil lcan use all his "fuck you" skill in rank 2. I'm not even going to mention decent stuns that reach rank 4 are limited to only few heroes.

And even if you you successfuly stun/move him, that give like what, 1 turn to deal with him while the other 3 guys are gonig to have a field day with you.

So overall he has a really high chance of fucking you up even if you do everything in your power to stop him. A single crit from him is enough to cost you a run.

Shit m8, he's a somewhat common enemy that requires more preparation than most bosses and still has a higher chance of fucking you up regardless. I don't do that much optimization even when going to DD. Something is clearly off, the guy is basically a boss.

it's hard to go back to conventional extravagance when you've had your way with vampires and the first plague waifu.
>>
So I just got to the viscount and I'm wondering how you're supposed to approach it.

Based off like four rounds before I ran (Decided I had seen enough and should make a plan before coming back) it looks like he gets different benefits from eating off the different hanging meat people.

It looks like the middle one gives him a big heal and I wasn't paying attention but he also gets repose and a big dodge buff off the furthest one I think.

Am I on the right track or am I retarded?

>>
>>180984379
I just finished the fight and I would 100% recommend you taking out all the meatbags first before you even bother hitting him. He has a move that has him eat at a meatbag for 50 health and gets rid of DOTs, a move that lets him transfer status effects from his meatbags to himself and buffs himself, and a move that lets him riposte for 4 rounds. After I got rid of all 3 bags he just began riposting non stop so your damage dealers will take damage

Other than that he's pretty easy just stack bleed on him after you've killed the bags and you're golden.

Neat, I was kind of planning on killing the back two bags and leaving the front one under the assumption that he would freak his shit and become enraged after you kill all the bags.

If you can just get rid of them that's not so bad.
>>
>>180984916
The meatbags have increasing health, one at 32, another at ~50, another at 72 iirc. Yeah don't worry you can kill all meatbags without problems and I think you should because he can just outheal any damage you hit him with.

I went with Vestal/PD/Flag/MaA which is my go to class and it was fairly easy since PD and Flag have bleed attacks. Keep in mind he has 4 moves a round so if you manage to stack a ton of bleed on him after the meatbags are gone he'll be dead before you know it

I thought you fuckers were just memeing with the Leper with rabies shit, he's actually fucking amazing with it wtf
>mfw critting hateful virago for 47

That being said how the fuck are you supposed to deal with the virago? Just kill her with pure damage before she kills you? She has a ridiculous amount of resistances
>>
>>180987027
Move her to the front
>>
>>180987027
the logic behind Rabies Leper is basically that he already can't hit the broad side of a barn so there's no real reason to not give him a slight acc debuff in exchange for turning hitting like a truck into hitting like a train. Especially since buffing accuracy to acceptable levels is much easier than buffing damage without drawbacks

>>180987950
Champion Flesh

>>180985209
Yeah, just got my first squadwipe on him, pretty gay desu.

4 moves a turn and a crit rate of like 60%, pretty fucking gay mixed with poo in loo doing 7 hp heals consistently

>Due to regional price differences, the gift you are trying to send cannot be sent to the recipient's region.
Haha, nevermind lads. I can't get it. Thank you, Steam. Very nice jewing.

>>180987950
Champion Flesh as well. Though The Swine God moved before I could rallying flare and did 80 damage crit on two guys.
>>
using audacity again, i combined the siren's chorus with the normal cove battle theme, the one with different chorus, here is the link if anyone is intrested:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/nlzz20b8iwls49p/real%20siren%202.mp3?dl=0
>>
>>180988010
Yeah that's why I always bring Vestal for consistent heal and damage mitigation for bosses. I can't risk Pajeet rolling 0 heal each time. How come you didn't just bail when your guys got low? You can restart the dungeon right outside when you go back in if you do since it's a Courtyard mission

Good thing though is that the Viscount has a fairly low stun resistance, like 55%, so if you have a party with a couple stuns you can use that to your advantage.
>>
>>180988007
>>180988312
What's scary about Champion Flesh? Just keep stacking bleed on him like always, no?

>>180987950
Probably Champion Hag just because you have to switch focus to the pot every time she throws one of your guys in and that gives her free hits on your guys
>>
Okay lads. Who do I put Leper with? I feel like with the damage he does, I'm better off with a mark hero since his output is underwhelming in comparison and I was thinking buffing his damage with trinkets and quirks might not be the right way to apply him. Don't get me wrong, I genuinely like Leper for all his lore design and how self-efficient he is but I'm just confused that what kind of role he should be playing because there are other options that are better for the things he brings to the table.

Also, what's so good about trinkets that boost resistances? I'm better off increasing other important things like accuracy and speed right?
>>
>>180988492
I understand that all you need to do is stack DoTs on it, but the fact that it hits like a fucking truck, and also hits multiple people with a chance to apply its own bleeds and blights, is just something that makes me nervous whenever i fight it.
>>
>>180984869
Same shit you retard. A boss is still an enemy.

I'll make the pics for all enemies unlike your dumbass who can't do shit.
>>
so I have a fairly good grasp on basic mechanics, but I kind of feel like I need to get to the next level of advanced party and character building. I find myself constantly going for very specific parties, and really feel uncomfortable without a vestal or occultist. But I see these parties of what I'd consider unorthodox compositions.

Is there a general "how to build good characters/parties" guide out there?
>>
>week 168
>just lost the very first Flagellant I got
Whip in peace, Valance.
>>
>>180988492
Hits hard, can hit more than one guy at once, and the blights and bleeds coming out of him.
>>
>>180988385
>why didn't you run

He was at like 20 hp and he started launching bleed + crit over and over.

I should have bailed but overconfidence and all that.

Anyway, the fat fuck is dead now so whatever, I went in with vasal/bounty/flagellant/jester

I shouldn't have taken poojeet but I found him to be the most effective during the barron because of the healing limitation.

Guys, what's the grave robber for ? What do you do with her, can't find a satisfying use of her...
>>
I'm starting the game now and I read the newbie guide but still got some questions.
How much stress before I need to put a hero on a tavern or temple for the week? I only got one Vestal healer so far and I'm not sure I can do anything without her.
Also can you "pass" a week or do you need to send someone anyway?
>>
>>180989237
He was a king or somebody important that became a leper as evidenced by the crowd watching over his departure. In his society, becoming infected with this disease is equal to being already dead so he did the next best thing find the cure or die trying.
>>
>>180991916
how many times do we need to tell you, Anon

she can do pretty much anything

>>180991938
over 50 is usually a good time to relax them, unless you got a Jester who can stress heal effectively

there's no way to pass a week by just waiting, but recent updates have made it possible for you to just send someone alone into in Bofu Egypt and then immediately have them retreat back home to force a week to go by
>>
>>180991938
Most of the time you only want to put them on rest when they're afflicted. If you want to use them for the next mission, only give them vacation when they're at 65+ stress
>>
>>180991916
Taking out ranks 3/4 with lunge/dagger throw. Blight high prot.
>>
>>180991916
I use her for either damage or blights. If you have good class trinkets for her she has incredibly high speed and dodge which lets her take out targets in the first round and avoid any punishment in return. She's good if you have a marking party or if the dungeon needs blight damage
>>

>>
>>180991916
Well anon, it's actually quite clear... She's for lewds
Throw again pretty much anything and work on from there.
>>
So what's a good composition to deal with the Fanatic? Currently it's looking something like [Vestalt] [BH][Crusader][Hellion]

But also debating dropping the Crusader, moving the BH to second, and including a Jester.
>>
>>180992280
Usually GR.

MaA is best at being a tank. BH isn't a tank. The rest are okay damage dealers.

GR is faster, has better crit chance, and better damage modifiers on her skills. Hwm has more hp and riposte, and can increase his damage with his buff/camp skill. There's not a huge difference between them imo, though.
