Huh, I could never seem to stun him so I stopped trying. Guess I'll try it again, maybe body my stunners with trinkets.

imo the only stunner who should not have a +stun trinket sellotaped to their forehead at all times is probably the Crusader i have reversed my previous, curious stance on Blackjack for the dogman, but i never have him in the front rows anyway

I just beat the Brigand Vvulf, there doesn't seem to be much info about him online yet. How often does his event trigger? I've only found two streams so far of people beating him. I do think it's pretty bullshit that even if you dodge his bomb it still lands and blows up though. Oh yeah, and the Highwayman has been massively improved. When did that happen? One of my favorite classes now.

Yeah sorry I meant 'stunner' as 'person who you want to use stun skills' in the first half of the sentence and then changed my mind and started going on about 'people who can stun' because I am very wise BH is never a primary stunner, imo, just an opportunistic flashbanger/uppercutter. his damage bonuses are great

Just ran into this event, bloody hell that's loving brutal. I had 5 level 5 dudes to pick from and thought "well he should probably be doable if it's giving me the event right?" so I upgraded their armour to the new level I just unlocked and then went in, never done the Darkest Dungeon before so didn't know you didn't get to pick who gets killed if you retreat. Nearly lost my leper to a heart attack before we even got to the boss and then lost my grave robber (who was my favourite of the 4) and her two very good trinkets when I retreated. I did at least find a side room with like 4 trinkets in as a reward in their but man, that event is a fucker. Probably should have ignored it and taken the hit to the upgrades.

I just skipped the Vvulf myself after reading your post and watching this, which was interesting if a bit annoying. I only have 2 level six dudes and I don't want to lose anyone atm. To be honest I can't tell what improvement(s) was destroyed, so, bonus, I guess? Just now I started a level 5 medicine gathering expedition - walked through five rooms without a single incident (well, dodged a trap) and found the three meds. Part of me wants to go back right now because when does that ever happen? But I need the cash, so...

Was playing today when I found this: The symbol for a crone's curse of vulnerability is a slightly modified version of the nábrók (e. necropants) glyph from Icelandic sorcery. The general idea of necropants is that you would get someone to agree to let you use their skin for witchcraft after death. Then once they died you'd dig them up and very slowly and carefully skin them below the waist until you had pants that were one piece with no holes. Then you'd have to steal a coin from a poor widow during mass on one of the major holidays. Then you must take that coin and place it in the scrotum. If you did everything the coin should spontaneously generate more and more coins forever making you effectively the richest person in the world. However the catch is that you can never take the pants off unless you can finds someone willing to take the pants. If you wear them for too long they begin to attach themselves to you so the longer you wear them the harder it is to get them off later. According to some stories your body and soul will both become corrupted and begin to rot if you wear them for too long and if you die while wearing the pants you are damned. It might be a deliberate reference but since the attack in question doesn't seem to have any connection with any sort of pants or greed I think it might be a case of the artist looking up magical symbols online and picking the one he thought was the coolest.

I forgot to mention it but obviously you had to put something with the symbol written or carved into it into the scrotum along with the coin. Obviously.

The only reason to restart this game is if you somehow completely wipe and can't progress, right? There's no time-locked content, as in: beat x boss before week 20?

NG+ puts a clock over your actions but the base game doesn't so you're free to take as much time and as many tries as you need. The only reason to restart would be if you somehow lost all your adventurers, could only scrounge up four replacements off the stagecoach, and one of them was an Abomination while one or more of the others were religious.

The Collector is seriously spooky. First time I ran into him he wiped out my team while they only slightly inconvenienced him. Ran into him again and only lost the rookie arbalest i brought along because everyone better was busy or dead.DOWN JACKET FETISH posted:is it me or is there a bit of a flaw here Either wizards didn't think bungholes counted or the idea was to cut holes for piss and poop after the necropants had grafted themselves to your flesh.

Anyone else getting inexplicable penalties when starting quests? A few times now one hero gets a "town" penalty of -10 to ACC for the entire quest, but no events have fired. Using the "coming in hot" version. Now I think of it, it might only be only Dismas and Reynaud.

Using the "coming in hot" version. If you send someone to the bar, they occasionally come back with a double vision quirk which will affect their ACC for the next quest. I know the Brothel and flagellation place also have a chance of temporary quirks.

Just had a brigand attack on the Hamlet as a town event, entirely new map with a new brigand boss and some of the regulars with wolf headcovers, pretty neat stuff. Lost a level 6 Helion to it, but I blame that mostly on the quest popping up at a really bad time stress/downtime wise, he seemed a fair bit weaker than the "regular" bosses. Interestingly, the quest was level 6 like the DD and also shared the "retreat kills one of your heroes" penalty.

What in the everloving gently caress, I'm trying to take out the 16 pounder and it's not letting me target the Matchman at all. He was just summoned and is in the last rank, I can't even select him to look at his stats. Aaaaand of course he lit the fuse and wiped the party. gently caress that.
