Why is Grave Robber so cute?

Because you can't make her features out thus filling in the blanks however you like

So, I just beat the Baron.
Will the infestation come back by itself or am I fine until I decide to visit the courtyard again?

So she can be a boy if I want?

I never used her in my first estate but she's really lunged in to my heart with her crazy fucking crit.

Any color you like as long as it's black.

I just beat him too, so i wouldn't know. A dozen weeks infestation is still absent. How do you keep everyone so healthy and clean?

What do you mean so healthy and clean?
Most of these guys were just chilling in the hamlet while my veterans tier guys were getting raped by vampires in the courtyard.

this game isn't real hardcore

I can't wait for CoM to come
I really hope we get the speculated mechanic of re-fighting bosses, and I hope they extend to those of the courtyard

>that picture
Where's that from?

>finally getting to this slippery shit
It's never not satisfying killing him in one swing

>A DLC based on the Color Out Of Space
>Quite possibly one of the coolest old ones of all.

HNNNNNGGGGG

>Fight the Baron, things go to shit so I just keep buffing DODGE to see where it'll take me since I had to recover very important items from the Shrieker I had no idea how it worked so some of my A-Team Leveled past 4
Despite everyone having nearly 30 dodge to begin with, and despite my Jingles having over 55, they dodged -1- attack from the Baron the entire fight. He also used attacks that -weren't- his full-party strike a whopping total of five times
Crowd Pleaser has a whopping 93.75% accuracy rate and still hit 99.9% of the time with my dodge stat being as high as it was.
two of the non-aoe attacks he did were Thirsts, which of course crit-healed him both times
The RNG has apparently had enough with my victorious nonsense and careful planning and just decided to fuck me ten ways to Sunday no matter how carefully and not-overconfidently I approached it, damn
I lost some incredible trinkets.

Create team names for the Shieldbreaker
>Jafar's Revenge

>Ret-2-Go
PD - GR - SB - MaA

Yeah, the baron loves his crowd pleaser, I almost had him the first time but it was after a long run through the courtyard so stress got the better of me and I had to retreat after a heart attack.
I went with Flag/MaA/HM/Vestal on my second attempt and he killed himself on riposte.

Does Riposte trigger on aoes? Stealth for example, doesn't protect enemies from attacks that hit all ranks, but does for anything else.
Is it the same for Riposte?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think riposte works against any attack that inflicts damage (doesn't matter if dodged).

The thing that really hurts me is that Wine Bottles spawned right near him, so I was even going in with full Camp buffs since I didn't need to spend Respite on anything Stress-heal related.
But damn, only one attack being dodged just hurts.

I don't think it works if it's damage caused by one of your own party members in a frenzy though.

So Im still kinda new, I have two level 3 guys at week 22, should I wait to grind a full team of 3's before hitting the veteran dungeons? Is Occultist/Plague/Man At Arms/Leper a decent comp?

How do you guys don't get bored of seeing 5hrs worth of pushover dungeons in front of you until the game becomes somewhat challenging is beyond me.

FUCK CROCODILLIAN

It's a good general comp. It won't take you through every zone perfectly but it will handle most of the game fairly well

dungeon difficulty shift will be a shock, so play it even safer than you have
I'd advise for high light until you grasp it, enemies don't just hit harder, they get smarter about it too

I would say it's doable with two lvl 3 guys if you play around sustain and protection, just make sure you have the weapons and armor upgraded as much as possible, because that's what really matters

Say i have this very unusual bug on my dankest dungeon, everytime something about steam itself like a friend playing another game or getting an achievement or an announcement my game image freeze but the game continue normally, good thing that this game autosave for every frame you move because when this happen i need to alt-tab and close the game but this is really annoying and i already reinstalled the game.

Does the shieldbreaker DLC add anything other than the class itself?

New enemies and an inventory item.

Now you will see things the way I do.

Very funny but i can't play this game unless i do it offline.

turn off steam overhaul

The infestation comes back. I'm doing on bloodmoon difficulty and got ~4 weeks with zero infestation. It's low infestation now and I'm getting 1 bloodsucker encounter per dungeon

Mfw Reynaud got blood aids
Mfw I have no face

My game is crashing after I complete a mission. What the fuck is this shit, a lot of people are complaining about this and the devs just say "lol check the most common fixes my dude"

I really hope the rooms in this expansion are random instead of their retarded pregen shit

Who do I pair with Abom? I want to rape shit.

CooS wasn't an "old one", not even really a part of mythos. Just Lovecraft being tired of humanoid aliens.

post yfw Many fall in the face of chaos. But not this one. Not today.

Pd/Occ/Ab/Hel is my go-to party on cove, but basically any team with occultist or any team that can self-heal, like arbalests and HM.
Also, I use him as a offensive sup to stun and blight that has a panic button. If you want to keep reking shit trasformed, you might want HM or Jester to stress heal, or his very rare trinket that lowers stress of transform

>TFW the new DLC is based on HP Lovecraft lore
>TFW it's "On the creation of niggers"

Is Leper as bad as I've heard?
I saw on some guide that he was the worst class in the game and was worthless, but I think he looks really cool so I want to use him without gimping myself.

He's only bad because hitting the backline is important against a lot of enemies and extremely important against almost all bosses

hes...tricky. I have leper in lane one, bounty hunter in lane two to drag stress dealers from back to the front lines, PD in third for vapors on leper, and vestal in back to turn the stressers dodge to shit.
Leper hits like a tank but slow as dicks

Naw. He kind of lacks some versatility but he makes up for it by being tough and hitting like a mack truck. He's a great choice for Swine, and a good pick for Necromancer (If Renualt is unavailable, he'll do just fine.) pounder and possibly siren.

It's like how the Highwayman gets outshined in DPS by other classes, but can deal damage in lots of ways, from wherever he's standing, to anybody. Leper is the opposite.

Plus melee used to be better before corpses were added. There was a great wailing and gnashing of teeth, some people are still butthurt you can't holy railgun through the game anymore.

it seems its just an endurance mode. meh.

na, theres worst. lepers lack accuracy and cant easily hit the back line. thats bad but the leper can do a STUPID amount of damage.
abomination is the worst, not because its bad but because its the only one that you cant mix freely with other classes.

Abom is Leper but good. He trades the Leper's downsides with not being able to group with 4 classes.

What does a well rounded bleed party look like? I've been trying my hand at it but I feel this goddamn Jester is not contributing much bleeds.

Is this game worth 9 dollars or should I wait till itโ€™s lower

Posted it if you don't want to spend $.

Honestly just pirate it first and see if you like it

This game is one of those games where you'll either like it or really really hate it

On top of this , try to play a good amount of it too. The grind and difficulty spikes notably as the game progresses, and the mid-late game is usually where people start getting really fed up with the grinding.

Do crusader and jester have ANY redeeming qualities besides stress healing? Houndmaster is so much better it's ridiculous.

dancing

...

Jester does well on a comp with a lof of versatile characters like highwayman and hellion, he can buff up finale to extreme amounts of damage, I personally like him against some bosses like hag or swine because he can freely buff up and deal ~50 damage with a dmg trinket. Also if he crits, oh boy, it's almost a one shot.

double abomination in front double houndmaster in back is a s+ tier team comp.

What are some quirk worth paying cash to lock?

+acc, +spd, +dmg

Hard nogging, strong, thick blooded, eldritch/beast/etc slayer/hater (depending on character). Anything that gives extra stats, like %hp on tanks which is pretty good too.

Hellion is just a better Leper?

More versatile and can do dots. I use both on the 3rd DVD so Leper can rek Cysts and Hellion gets the stalks, hitting with the leper if the GR crits the stalk.

Who has the best line?
Plague Doctor: Not me! I am a learned scholar!

Occultist: Finally, the face of my tormentor. Come, then.

Grave Robber: A proper lady does not volunteer herself for slaughter!

Leper: Spare the others, I am ready.

Bounty Hunter: ...hm.

Crusader: Unholy foulness! I will take you with me!

Hellion: Send me to hell then! AAAKYLORAAAHHH!

Houndmaster: Steady, girl. If we're called, we answer.

Abomination: Whatever awaits, it cannot be worse than what I've endured.

Vestal: I-it's too horrible! Noooo!

Highwayman: No way out. hmph. Let's do this.

Man At Arms: I go with a clear conscience. I've given my all.

Arbalest: Please, no! I want to live!

Jester: Hah! The joke's on me then...?

Her defence isn't good for a front liner. She's still one of my favorites, but no.

I've waited long for this! DON'T TAKE IT FROM ME.

Anyone else pretty much done with this game?

Astrologer.

>Houndmaster: Steady, girl. If we're called, we answer.

Easily the most badass. Second place goes to the Leper or Occultist.

>I don't like something
>I don't have any objective critique
I'll call it Reddit, that'll show them

>Leper is pious even to the end
>crusder just wants to murder it
>vestal mindbreak.avi

Well you know who was the most truly faithful.

maybe a detective/investigator? kinda like an antiquarian + arbalest but with upgrade mats instead of money

BH, HWM and Hellion

A class that absorbs stress for his team, but provides buffs to his teammates when he goes crazy.

Reminder that when you bought this game you supported this pathetic excuse of a man

kek

didn't think your post was very funny

Is the crimson courtyard dlc worth it? I added it on to my current campaign and the mechanics seem really obnoxious in that they bleed into the rest of the game.
also
>mfw it's been 40 weeks and I haven't gotten a single graverobber and a single jester

do you have dead heroes?

The ps4 bundle worth it?

>single graverobber and a single jester
holy shit, even with upgraded wagon?
Also, very first new set of people I got was antiquarian, rolling in dough.
>Leper: Spare the others, I am ready.
>Houndmaster: Steady, girl. If we're called, we answer.
these two always get me

Five or six.

Mistyped; got 1 jester but no GR. Have wagon upgraded second to last for recruit pool. Which sucks because I love shuffle parties.

im a slut for vapored HWM with Point Blank, ive seen beefy tanks crumble from a crit, with Grave robber to pick off the pieces

>vestal becomes abusive

Yes, flagellant is fucking awesome.

>Vestal becomes masochistic and dies to bleed
>HWM dies from a heart attack
>MAA is highly stressed and on his last leg
>My antiquarian is completely untouched and crit, so her stress faided
this fucking game

Hadn't thought to vapor HWM for crazy point blanks but considering how hard it hits seems like it'd be awesome. Might have to run one now.
Also does vestal get better later on? Seems like the general consensus is she's the overall better healer but I've had far better luck running Occultists since his shitty heals are usually on par with her best heals outside of the very rare 0-2 heal with bleed.Plus he can mark, has a better reduced damage debuff, and can pull/clear corpses.

Just bought the base game, does the DLC impact the base game?

if you want to play it safe? always bring vestal and make sure shes equipped with increased healing trinkets. Ive had party heal 15 before and a 25crit heal on someone with deaths door, shes good since you'll be healed always, but will never be as good as oc can get
With Oc you might want to bring a shit ton of bandages. Oc, unlike vestal can dish out crazy damage and be placed anywhere, but you'll sometimes heal low. So hes a gamble
saftey first, vestal. Not to worried, Oc
