What should my fourth skill on the Flagellant be? I'm figuring Punish, Exsanguinate and Redeem are the default, and I've been running Rain of Sorrows but basically never used it.

Are the extra trinket mods any good? Any specific recommendations?

Can you explain me the purpose and difference between each musketeer file? I'm retarded, thanks.

Suffer or Reclaim

You'll hardly use rain of sorrows due to being able to hit position 3, but then again, I can't recommend a better skill.

>Continued from last thread:
How do we save the Crusader?

So whats the consensus on quality custom classes?

I've been using the Puglist, the Martyr, and the Cannoner and they seem pretty okay so far.
Martyr might need a nerf but its interesting at least

Well he didnt wipe me but pretty close

My party set up was awful, lucky I survived

Crusader could do nothing except hit pews and I stupidly kept using duelist advance ibnstead of just shooting him, could have won alot easier

Suffer for free bleed/blight heal on party members and getting Flag's health down

Zealous Accusation - -30% damage, now gives bonus vs. cultists and unholy.
Inspiring Cry - same, but move +1

Like some user said, he feel pretty bland because he's one of the first hero made.
So we need to make him be able to do more things like guard with the Bulwark

reminder the only reason this game didn't drop dead a month after being released is the art style and narrator
gameplay is just a fucking grindfest, but the narrator makes it sound amazing.

Anybody got the sound effects for jester

I want a text alert battle ballard

>Glory and gold ? Count me in

Is Rallying Flare worth taking for anything other than Swine God? Seems like it has some utility in the Weald.

>Houndmaster crits
>PRESS THIS ADVANTAGE, GIVE THEM NO QUARTERS
>Houndmaster: No quarter given!

CC monster and the Fanatic got some nasty bonus damage against market targets.

Still the rush shot speed could be handy to take the mosquitos first

If I make the OP again, I'll add those.

>Inspiring Cry - same, but move +1
That would be more annoying than helpful imo.

main issue is he is SLOW as fuck and he brings nothing another class could do better

only real unique thing is he can stress heal form the front lines

he also does nearly nothing to any of the new enemies in veteran or champion since he cant do shit vs prot or touch the backline

ive never had a situation where i think "damn if only i had a crusader for this" closest would be vs the necromancer, but thats it

leper is in a similar position

pros:
stress heals
tanky
can raise torch
stops nighttime ambush

cons:
shit speed
can't hit backline outside of holy lance
shitty heals
no way to tank besides self marking
cant do shit in the back besides holy lance and stress heal
worst stun?

Perhaps +/- 1? Or perhaps Guard has him move back 1, cry move forward 1?

do i have to fight a shambler for all the ancestor trinkets or can i just get them all from the long champ missions?

Would I be too much of a pussy if I installed that mod that expands the base numbers of the roster aviable?

All I have are some class mods but I ditched and stopped using them as I felt they were OP, but I kept my save till that point.

There's three of them you only get from Shambler
...I don't actually know if he gives anything besides those three?

completing a mission inside the DD technically increases your roster by 4 since the heroes that complete a mission inside no longer count towards the max

which ones? wiki lists that he can drop 5 total, but does not mention if they only drop from shamblers

You can get one shambler trinket from beating DD1.

yeah but he's *fun*
i know that's a horrible arguement but he only exists to have a 4 man deus vult and just keep using holy lance battle heal smite and the stress heal if needed

especially against the prophet

How do I git gud vs the fanatic? Hes fucking killed 3 people already.

Bring back the old busted version of holy lance

destroy the pyre

Get MaA to defend your main damage dealer

Post your autism /dadg/
>I take a screenshot everytime a hero become virtuous and put in a a folder for my collection
>If i have the money i send heroes to the tavern/church so they can enjoy themselves while waiting for their turn

I only use the crusader like this: vest/hwm/crs/leper
So he can help leper mowing down the front, then when I need to hit the back I use dualist advance and crusader's lance one after another. I find him very useful like that.

Could you run Crusader for stress heals instead of a Jester? Maybe stack Healing and Protection on him while still having a stun?

Occu > Grave Robber > Abom > Crusader

>Bolster stacking Man at arms with Corvid's Grace and Evasive locked in

LITERALLY unhittable

Print screen doesn't work in this game. How do you take screenshots?

Steams default screenshot button should be F12

I mentally create relationships between my characters depending on how they crit, stress or deal with each other in camping skills, depending on what happened.

Like, if a plague doctor heals a character, she'll become closer to that character and will want to go with them more often.

It's less autist than it sounds, but it does create some good stories in my head like a Plague doctor that became in love with a Flagellant but he ignored woman due to several crits against those stresfull bitches in the ruins, or a MaA that married an antiquarian then she died during a shambler ambush, got drunk at the tavern and since then refuses to go with another antiquarian.

>having both quirks
>spam Bolster during Garden Guardian
>still eat every single Plummeting Doom

Barb, MaA, arab, HM. HM and MaA need guard skills - they will guard the other two from rockfall. MaA also needs his dodge buff skills, both active one and camping. HM should have selfheal. Dodge and prot items and quirks would be welcome; you should probably focus on increasing HM's dodge and MaA's prot. Barb is the main damage dealer, she stands in front, so get a camp buff for that. Arab should heal and debuff prophet's damage (so said the wiki; I suspect it was changed recently, though, and damage debuff may not work on rocks). I killed him that way with ease - in a long way.

Sounds comfy tbqh

>Grave Robber > Abom
Nigga please, abom is best hero.

that sounds like some fucking actual autism

It's less autist than you think. I don't write down anything so I just try to remember everything, so I often make mistakes or do't remember things properly.

I always do this in games that let me create my party and customize them, and one with permadeath like DD is a perfect fit since characters can carry the pain of a friend/lover death over the game. Like it gives them a reason to keep going or leave.

Reread that more carefully.

Only takes a couple bad rolls. Remind yourself lest you lose him and those nice quirks

What?

use hyphens or slashes to separate heroes when you're writing team compositions, not less-than symbols

You could try learning what context is.

you could try accepting that crusader is a shit class but I'm not the one calling people out when i fuck up

SALTY KEK

How fucking stupid are you?

all CC boss trinkets suck

baron's lash is okay for the siren, but otherwise yeah, every trinket involving having the crimson curse is hot trash

At least take this (you) as a comfort

Nothing, he is good as is. He is one of three characters that can do a targeted stress heal (other two being Jester and Flagellant) along with it being capable of taking someone off of death's door. He can get shuffled to the back and still not be useless due to holy lance and it is often better to just have him start in rank 3/4 so you can do holy lances on the back line in the first round. He has a decent stun and stuns are always useful along with good damage.

He is right, though not only that a Crusader cannot be in an Abomination party.

F-Fuck.

So I went ahead and did some changes to the Jester based on the discussion on the previous thread. The changes (and issues because i am kinda scrub at this) in particular are

>Dirk stab gets a +10/15/20/25/30% bonus DMG vs bleeding. Tried to make it a raw damage bonus using damage_high_add instead of damage_high_multiply (and the same with damage_low) but it wouldn't show on the tooltip and it wouldn't actually have an effect (tried it vs bleeding and non-bleeding)
>Harvest DMG mod decreased from -50% to -33% (same as harvest, still targets 2+3), and can be used in pos 432 instead of only 32
>Slice Off targets pos 14, moves you back 1 space and can be used in pos 321 instead of only 32. The idea was that the skill would have a 100% chance to target an additional target (.extra_targets_count 1 .extra_targets_chance 1.0) so it would target 1+4 instead of only 1. However it doesn't work when I try it out, it only targets 1. Perhaps it is better this way, Harvest is pretty good with that simple dmg change
>Both Slice Off and Harvest add +20% DMG to Finale
>Adding to this: I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to change the duration of the finale buff to make it last the whole battle (I tried copying what was written in Bulwark of Fate but didn't work) nor how to increase the % amount increased (it doesn't appear in effects.darkest and I am clueless as to where it is)

I can upload the effects.darkest and jester_info.darkest if you want to try it out and see if he is still shit or not. I certainly find him more fun now. I tried that both builds (Static one and finale one) remained viable and good

>focusing the pot

They get out whenever they reach death's door, just get a couple of Occs to heal the damage and focus on the hag

the Hag is a DPS race, you need to kill her before your dudes get roasted

And don't bring a Leper to that fight, at most, you'll leave leprosy juices on the soup

>Occ
>heal the damage

Hero corpses Y/N?

Need a quick rundown on the Independent Musketeer. Is she her own class? How balanced is it?

Sure. Keeping position-sensitive heroes in place and possibly distracting enemies with a corpse would take some of the sting out of a hero death.

That would take a fair amount of art, though. I'd rather be able to see armor/weapon upgrades on heroes.

New player here. How difficult are veteran missions? Most of my guys are level 2 now.

If you focus on freeing your guys from the pots eventually everyone will be at low HP rather than one person. I nuked her with my Abomination.

Yes. It'd help not having backliners dragged out of place because of dead heroes

Don't bother taking underleveled heroes to a higher-tier mission. They'll start with around 33 stress, and they will be singled out by enemies.

Only do that if it's a necessity (ex: your roster is full, and you need to train up one newbie), and strongly consider bringing a Man-at-Arms/Houndmaster to protect the underleveled hero.

You want level 3s and 4s for veteran

Veteran are fine, avoid Long missions while you get used to them

Champion is where the difficulty spike will beat the shit out of you

>first time playing
>ignore antiquarian for 18 weeks because her abilities looks like absolutely garbage
>one of the threads I learn about her looting abilities and campaign skills

>mfw after my first medium dungeon
Fuck progression, boss fights and that faggy ancestor. I'm farming glittering gold, trinkets and baubles now.
Does bringing more than one antiquarian get me more blings too? Honestly only downside is inventory is too small for all these things.

Each Auntie multiplies how much gold you can stack

>unbelieving infidels

I got my first 0+bleed today. Thankfully it was just a random battle in a hallway

neat, are there any class re-balance mods?

upload it once you feel its ready

odd the game doesn't make it clearer she increases gold found

Hi, I just got the game. What is happening here?

try verifying game files, something happened to his spirtesheet

Is that the sound of over confidence? Try them.

he's just that fast

>Grievous injury, palpable fear...

Okay it downloaded some new files and now it looks like this? Sorry my computer is not very good.

All what crusader needs is to mark more enemies as unholy.
>if vampires arent unholy, what are they?

Smite: 50% damage vs Undead.
Zealous Accusation: Attack type changed to Melee, provides +8 Light.
Battle Heal: Affects entire party. Heals 4-5 HP, raises speed by 1.
Holy Lance: Can be used from Rank 2.

Why is it always Dismas that this sort of thing happens to?

I think your Dismas has autism
