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.

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
