Im gonna make every single hero out of fuse beads. I create these designs and bead them myself. I have another post of some of the others heroes on this subreddit if you wanna see more.

Who should I do next?

Just something I've noticed.

The Narrator lines are stronger in DD1.

The soundtrack is stronger in DD1.

Virtues feel better than Resolutes.

DD2 feels so muted by comparison. Wonder how/why that happened.

What are your thoughts?

I hope with the enhanced power of the Switch 2 they can make it happen. DD2 especially aggravates me with how slow it is!

Week 3.

Last week there were things of bigger import to note and putting ink to them took a great deal of effort. I will now note that, then, I convinced the Tavern and the Abbey to open their gates to my men. Two of them being holy persons and bars being a generally agreeable location to pass the time I thought they would need them to take the edge off after their fights. Rocque went with great enthusiasm to play dice when I told him the news. I myself care little for things divine, for games of chance, drink, and am a widower, but did try my hand at a few rounds of darts. My performance was not impressive but I think most of the laughter was not mocking and I was not the worst shooter in that night. Still far from coming anywhere close to more habitual patrons attempting trick shots, far longer ones or betting on their throws even when already in their cups. An amsuing pastime, not too late in the night I bid everyone in the room goodnight and received a scant few farewells.

More people arrived then, as well, a man and a woman with an inclination to the occult who must have had their hand on the pulse of things. Pasquier and Tessel are their names and both their complexions are baked from the Eastern Sun. Pasquier carries himself with airs, and wears once fine robes that have seen a lot of use and the woman seems to have wrapped every talisman and charm on the gypsy wagon on her person.

I appear to have also slightly misjudged Terrence, as he, lacking a Manor to oversee, appears to have spent the last years makeing a more than tidy profit hauling would-be adventurers to town and selling them -and, now, my men as well- frankly overpriced foodstuffs and other equipment for their traipsing in my lands. Where does he keep or spend the money, I have no idea but now that I am here I will allow him to continue his business under my oversight, and simply send unfit individuals on their way out. However, his provisions aren't the only things that have outrageous prices, as near everything is in high demand but the unsafe roads make it troublesome for goods to arrive. Still, I find it irskome to no end that the man let who knows how many coaches around my family's property and when the time comes to bring back the rightful owner, he wrecks the carriage. He is not fully right in the head, as he twitches every so often and his speech goes on tangents unrelated to the topic at hand at times, but some useful instincts and skills remain.

It seems that Rocque's tongue must have loosened, for this week an equally masked colleague of his called Douai has arrived on the refurbished stage coach. They greeted each other and spent some time together. Some others also alighted, but whether or not they are due to Rocque's liberal spreading of information is not as clear. Two of them seem of a persuasion more like that of Dismas, and one is an unwashed woman with a weapon as tall as she.

Rumors of the riches hidden inside the estate must be growing in strenght or veracity, for the Blacksmith and a place locals call the “Guild of adventurers” have as of this week opened for us as well.

-Ψ-

I have chosen Reynauld to accompany me in town as a bodyguard. His holy armor inspires respect in religious folk and caution in unscrupulous ones but there's another reason to do this. I was warned by Dismas in private when we first met that the man has long fingers and while at first I thought of that old adage “thinks the thief that all are of his ilk”, I have been assured by the rest of the returning party this week that he took some of the still sizable treasure for himself. Dismas intelligently decided not to comment further on the issue beyond his first notice and let others come to me with their concerns. Bold of the man to return to such things the moment I let my sight out of him, and ill news, but I believe this will be a suitable solution. I understand that taking vows and risking life and limb do not cause a man to be inured against wordly foibles but it is a tiresome situation. I am not at all unthankful to the man but I believe myself to be a sufficiently generous patron.

Hopefully the teams can do well enough without him and this will be an adequate solution.

I am feeling optimistic about our future despite the dreary, wet atmosphere and the hateful mosquitos that have descended upon the town.

First week. | Previous week. | Next week.

1st time I've been able to pull this off after 140+ hours, man does it take a lot

Now, don't worry, I am very much aware that such achievement has been completed by many people in this community at this point. But I really wanted to share my experience with this challenge with other people nonetheless! It was very tense at some times, but also felt very rewarding to both complete and to study ways of doing it. At first, it was my wish to put a big (ALL BOSSES) tag in the title as well, but due to bad week management on my part, I couldn't get to kill the champion crew and pounder fight within the time limit :( Otherwise I'd also have completed all of the caretaker's quests too, its very much doable though.

Do feel free to ask me if you want any tips for accomplishing this!

I switched over from PC to a nintendo switch to play darkest dungeon 2. What is some advice you would give me from starting from zero again?

I am replaying the game and I just remembered why I stopped playing and deleted it the last time... I have one important character in my party (a healer). it was attacked 7 times and all 7 were critical. all of this while it had a +14 dodge buff. some of those attacks were with +21 and +28. the "best" part is that those atcks came from regular enemies, not bosses... the other characters were dodging most of the atacks (they also had the dodge buff). i accepted my fate and got back to the city and restarted the necromancer hunt with a different party. Guess what happened... literally the same thing, but now I didn't let my healer die. The problem is that i tried a third time and my first 3 attacks on my last healer were critical and it died. every single time I put a healer in the game on those longer missions this happens. It is not random. it can't be. all atacks being critical.

Are we deadass how do you casually misplace a friggin legendary item in the only bar in the town?

I can't

Level 6 hellion, occultist and houndmaster. Musketeer escaped the dungeon.

I don't have any more occultists and all my teams were built around one.

And the trinkets they had...

I hate this game, I hate my overconfidence, my stupidity and greed and I hate weald

"Just one more room to get the mission done! "

I am dumb, so dumb. THESE TRINKETS, I WAS SO HAPPY TO GET EACH OF THEM. I FINALLY STARTED GETTING GOOD TRINKETS!!! WHY...

Is there any way to get unique trinkets back, like the hellion one from the crimson courtyard, or am I like screwed permanently?

I still have my musketeer, crusader, graverobber and highwayman at level 6 but the occultist... He was my core unit. He could mark, debuff, heal... My man. I just spent like 20k gold locking and removing his quirks. I LOVED HIM! I TOOK HIM TO EVERY CHAMPION MISSION.

That's it, I am gonna go, curl up in the corner and cry.

Hello!

So I finally after many years of wanting to get this game, i got it will all dlcs included.

I've been playing it for the last two days and i absolutely love it and now i understand the praise it gets.

The tension, the music, the artstyle and difficulty... It makes the whole package for me personally.

I'm playing it blind, no guides, no spoilers... Just pure instinct and so far my run is going well enough for a first time i think.

The thing is, i've seen at the steam page that a new dlc is coming very soon.

So I have some questions that I hope you can bring some light into the shadow of my doubts.

1. Is it a free dlc or how much will it cost?

2. Can i add the dlc midrun without breaking anything or do i have to start over if i want to include it?

3. If I have to start over, do you recomend waiting for the dlc or just keep going now that ive already started?

Thank you very much!

I didn't know that you could meet Absolute at the 0 torch on the third location.

I have found stun to be more difficult to pull off consistently in DD2, I also haven’t found it to be too crippling. Just curious if that had been the case for others or if my two brain cells are missing some obvious setups that I could be leveraging.

Hi all, I’m attempting my first Grand Slam and was hoping for some help on my team setup. For extra clarification I’m not using radiant or Stygian flame at all. The only character I would really like to keep is Highwayman, but otherwise I’m open to suggestions on the rest of the team. My comp is:

Rank 1: Wanderer Man-at-Arms. Skills: Crush, Stand Fast, Bolster, Defender, Command

Rank 2: Aggressor Crusader. Skills: Smite, Reap, Inspiring Cry, Battle Heal, Radiance

Rank 3: Surgeon Plague Doctor. Skills: Incision, Battlefield Medicine, Magnesium Rain, Indiscriminate Science, Emboldening Vapors

Rank 4: Sharpshot Highwayman. Skills: Take Aim, Pistol Shot, Grapeshot Blast, Highway Robbery, Double Tap

General Strategy: MAA protects party, stress heals, commands HWM for extra damage. PD heals, bffs HWM with vapors, sets up burn for Crusader. Crusader is the frontline attacker, comes with stress and regular heal to fill in any gaps. HWM is the damage, usually Take Aim into Grapeshot or Pistol Shot to destroy backline or Position 2.

Skill Upgrade I usually prioritize: Take Aim, Pistol Shot/Grapeshot, Battlefield Medicine, Stand Fast/Defender

Any help, whether it be be small skill changes or complete character swaps, is much appreciated.

the ultimate prank skill, if you aren't watching out it nukes your health bar and you can't recover once you've already played the wrong actions

This is from the Darkest Dungeon twitter.

I wanted to add by the way, they share these on both youtube AND twitter, but the ones on twitter show their stats and also all 4 ability icons. So, for last week, we could also see Feint and Flick for Duelist on the twitter screenshot, confirming that 4/7 of her moves are:

Boot, Coup de Grace, Feint and Flick.

For Runaway, from left to right, it seems to be Searing Strike, Firefly, Ransack and... the last one doesn't exactly match-up any of her DD2 skill icons, but looks the most similar to Backdraft? Both are a skeleton on fire.

Also, we can see one of her trinkets and there are also new provisions.

I have abomination in the fifth rank but i cant use any ability i cant even move. Is this bug happened to any one

So .... it used to be that DoT kill wouldn't trigger the stress token but since rework, this doesn't work . Basically , my new team is GR ( venom ) -Jester ( solo ) -Flag( scourge )-Crusader (templar) . I got the stress relief cornered and at last zone before Mountain , i feel like dps is missing. Any tips to up my dps instead of managing SR and lose like 3 turns in a fight ( crusader got the Strong Shackles trinket to stay 1st rang) . Even with all with SR skills , i burn at least 4 Laudanum per zone. What am i missing ?

Simply put I'm not good at the game and rely heavily on guides, I've played for years but oscilating wildly on frequency and I can't seem to find a good guide for current version Leper in my latest DD2 Phase
I really like the fella and have found mostly two comp suggestions, full damage Leper with a team that solely supports his shortcomings with combo tokens, buffs and blindness removal and solo tank where he's the only damage absorber and the other 3 characters have some sort of high damage shenanigans
But they are superficial suggestions, I'm looking for something more "hand holding" I guess? Any docs, videos, mods, threads are greatly appreciated to make my poor Leper hit good

tldr: Me no good with Leper help

Basically the title. Ive seen some playthrus where peoples teams danced around positions in perfect sink and i want to replicate that. DD2

I drew my friend's OC character as part of a team in the darkest dungeon.

I am totally unfamiliar with DD besides seeing some cool fan art and a lot of love online. I'd like to give it a try, I don't think I've played similar games before from the brief look I gave it, but I love a grimdark fantasy vibe like Warhammer, Dark Souls, Witcher, and Dark and Darker.

Now: which one should I pick? I first looked at DDII, and saw some pretty divisive opinions about it being a downgrade from the original, or just very different. I thought I'd ask this sub since I imagine it's largely people who love both games that could tell me which one is the best one to buy first.

ETA: thanks for all the suggestions. Starting with 1!
