    Those are some pretty strong trios, but i can't really get over the lack of 3 Lepers. 3 Lepers is a pretty strong foundation, and works well with most characters in the 4th slot, even when you'd usually want to add a Leper to that Trio to fully complete it and cover its few weakspots.

      @@DanteCrowlley In this comp, you can use Vestal and/or Houndmaster and/or Hellion to stun. If not doing Hellion Stun, consider that HM's Blackjack is very powerful as a stun (+10% base chance) and reaches ranks 1-3. It's like having a rank-2 Occultist using Hands from the Abyss.

      Best tip for shambino is to shuffle your party preemptively to avoid wasting turns moving. Best classes for shambino IMO are Highwayman, MAA, and Abomination. Highwayman and MAA get riposte, and abomination can either stun the clapperclaws or dunk shambler with Rage. Finally, the Clapperclaws don’t die after shambler is killed, so don’t hail mary shambler or else the clappers will mess you up

    I’ve grown fond of Highwayman, Grave Robber, and Hellion (often with Vestal making ‘Gun and Roses’). Ranks 3 and 4 die as quickly as you’d like, a well timed combo of Point Blank Shot and Bleed Out crushes rank 1, you have access to decent bleeds, and being surprised doesn’t mean anything because all three do great damage in the process of repositioning.
    It works great everywhere and sometimes feels like cheating.

    Antiquarian + MAA + Grave Robber. With guard me, retribution and shadow fade you force your enemies to attack into riposte. Ideally the 4th slot is another riposter.. also you can get huge dodge buffs with MAA camp skill and antiquarian buff.

    One thing I've slept on greatly is how much I've been using Vestal as a crutch for bad gameplay. However, with proper gameplay Occultist / Crusader / Flagellant can be more effective and is much more rewarding. The single biggest reason I enjoy moving away from using Vestal in every comp is I can now use 2 backline DPS like PD / Arbalest.

    At first I thought this was a challenge of playing the game with only 3 heroes instead of 4 for eah mission.
    Nevertheless I like Hellion, Flagellant and Houndmaster for their bleed synergy, especially the Hellion's +33%dmg vs. Bleeding and the flagellant's bleed debuff. The healing in this team is really good, it has stress heal, awesome camping skills, scouting and plays very well in torchless (houndmaster whistle and hell's hairpin). Lots of crits, lots of bleeds, outside of the ruins this team is an absolute blast to play! If you're lame you can throw in a plague doc, bounty hunter, jester or vestal in this mix, but this is one of the teams where 3 might be enough amd even better against shuffling enemies because hellion and flagellant can't be pushed to rank 4.

  • @sarakollaritsch3695
    @sarakollaritsch3695 11 месяцев назад

    i've found that crusader-jester-hwm-FL hero is another great setup; I usually use MMA but you could put anyone who doesn't care about shifting between rank 1 and 2. crusader is main healer and secondary dps, jester is stress healer and secondary dps, hwm is primary dps. I usually try to keep crusader and jester leapfrogging between rand 3 and 4 but its not an issue b/c hwm can hop around and reposition if crusader of jester gets into rank 2.
    crusader and jester can take the enemy back line to task in 2 or 3 turns, hwm can take out the frontline with pointblank and duelist advance and can also redirect to the backline if necessary. The dmg across all enemy ranks is crazy and you can keep healing and stress pretty under control in the last few turns bc crusader will loose any backline targets and can only heal.
    MMA works great in this team, mainly for for funneling dmg and throwing out stuns. getting riposte on him and hwm is great. I usually have him guarding hwm since he's a glass cannon, but i may guard no one or crusader if i need to throw out heals or want as many riposte procs as possible. This is my go-to team for long vetran missions and it even managed to stand up to Vvulf - though I did loose my Reynauld in that fight to bleed :(

    @bunnysupreme74 11 месяцев назад

    Today I found out that, surprisingly, GR, PD and Leper make a great team!
    GR lunges rank 3. PD stuns rank 4 (and rank 3 if it's not dead). Since the backline is stunned, that gives Leper enough time to Intimidate the last backline enemy, to slow him down.
    Since the backline enemy is slowed down, it's almost guaranteed that GR will be fast enough to throw a poison dart in round 2 and kill it.
    And since Intimidate marks Leper, it somewhat protects GR being in Rank 2 on the second round.
    As long as you start GR in Rank 4, she will almost never interfere with Leper being in Rank 1.

      Don't be shy to oversupply and don't throw supplies out at the very start for loot. A completely filled bag isn't bad if you're going long and you can always backtrack to curios if feasible.
      Also keep in mind the region you're going to. Warrens warrants another stack of medicine over shovels while Weald would be the opposite and Cove requires both. Warrens requires less food since you'll find it in curios, Ruins requires more, etc.
      Camp skills are also a big part of long dungeons so bringing heroes with good battle or stress buffs help as well as night time ambush prevention that comes with a buff, such as Highwayman or Houndmaster. Scouting chance is also greatly valuable as more tiles means more traps and secret rooms have a guaranteed chance of spawning.
      Don't be stingy with camping. Making room for more loot is good, getting buffs is good. An earlier first camp can mitigate a lot of damage.

      Money can be a big issue for sure if you're focusing on heirlooms for building upgrades early.

    You use Occultist a lot. You love Occultist. You make a great case for Occultist. But... There's no dedicated "Occultist and You" video!! Please bring all your Occultist knowledge and tips into an "and You" video for the dude.

      @@ShuffleFM Understood. Though some of us do not support the whole concept of game store exclusives, so it will be awhile before I see DD2. :-( I'll just have to rewatch all your videos and take notes when you talk about the Occultist. Not an unpleasant prospect. :-D
