Been using Jester, and he's not bad at all? He basically ensures that my team comes back with no stress. Granted, I just have Solo/Finale and the two buffs. There's nothing wrong with a character that is just straight up used for utility, especially one that mitigates stress completely.

But I'm using the Houndmaster and Crusader to kill people??? How am I supposed to heal stress if I'm hitting dudes in the face instead. Well I mean other than crits, which the Jester will happily provide with his buff.

People dismissing characters should just bring heavily afflicted guys to the Cove. I have never seen so many quirk clearing interactions

If I need to get rid of negative quirks, I just do a few cove runs. Eerie coral is common enough that I usually run into 4-5 of them on a medium run.

If you guys are running out of money, maybe you should sell some trinkets. There are tens of thousands of dungeonbux in it for you if you're even just a few weeks in.

The one complaint I have about curio interactions is not being able to right click on an item to auto-use it. Click and dragging is such a chore.

I only ever pay to use the tavern/church whenever one of my guys gets afflicted. Eventually you get enough people that you can just send out a different team each time and let people destress naturally. Also maybe run jesters instead of listening to people who say they're bad???

Stop sending all your guys to the church/tavern. They can destress naturally if they sit around in town and you have enough teams to send out. Short runs should never have more than 8 food (BRING MORE FOOD IF YOU HAVE QUIRKS THAT MAKE YOU EAT MORE, but never more than 2 hunger events worth), and never more than 4 torches. Only bring consumables that you know will be used in that specific dungeon or just bring 2 of everything, unless you are doing a cleanse run in the Cove (4 medicinal herbs should be fine). Do not use those torches at all unless you absolutely must/want to finish the mission but can't because your guys are too injured/stressed and you need to scout. As you near the end of a run, start replacing the consumables you do have with gold and gems that you pick up. Gems stack up to 4, I think? So a full stack of 250 price gems is worse than a full stack of gold. You do not need consumables for every single curio because you will be throwing away a lot of poo poo if you do this. Use consumables from containers before closing the menu so you get some use (like healing up when you get a huge cache of food). Leave empty trinket slots on your characters so you can slap in useless trinkets you pick up to save room in your inventory. When you get back to the hamlet, sell your useless trinkets. EDIT: Cove runs are great. Medicinal herbs in eerie coral removes negative quirks, even permanent ones. The problem is you probably want to bring a decent team because those fish people loving hurt.

Another solution if you have a lot of guys with stress: take them out on a medium length mission and immediately camp. Make sure you have a lot of team-wide stress relief camp skills. Maybe top them off with in combat stress relievers. I very often will be able to complete a medium length mission without using my firewood, but use it anyway just to end the mission with 0 stress and full health.

It hit the pot instead, and the only survivor of the fight ended up being the highwayman who was in the pot, who retreated when he got dumped out. Shoulda went for the kill with him. Even if you failed, there's an achievement for party wiping on a boss.

Dark runs are better simply because the game is too easy otherwise. And fights aren't that difficult at 0 light anyway. I really would like to see videos of people playing, because from all the streams I've seen, people don't actually know how to play the game 'properly.' People keep saying jesters are bad, but I've been making excellent use of them. A 4 jester team is completely overpowered too.

4 jesters can just lead with 4 solos. Because they're fast, they usually go before enemies. That's -40 accuracy with a level 1 skill on the first turn. I'll restart my campaign and stream it when I get home, and leave the recording as videos. I'll even make an effort to have a 4 jester A-team.

Ranter posted:This is boring because: 1) You need 4 jesters to have a 4 jester party. 2) I do, but it's off because people are sleeping. 3) I responded to you and then you left without responding back.  I had mentioned that the Jester went last because he had Off Guard, which is far worse than Kleptomaniac, I think. -4 speed and -5 dodge on the first turn of fights is ludicrous. Also I can't do anything about the jester problem until I actually get 4 jesters! That being said, have a two hour recording in which I have no money problems and minimal staff problems despite running dark. Only one person died, and he was a level 0 mook. Got an achievement for it so whatever! The game is absolutely boring if you just pop torches whenever you dip under 75. http://www.hitbox.tv/tastylemondrops/videos

I had three of them on death's door and got lucky with a retreat. It seems I'm really lucky when fighting the pounders. The only time one ever got through, it was a misfire.
