Artemis 'Stormrunner' Sader don't know why, but the collector was never a problem for me, each time my time just slay him like he was a little vomitting pig. I wish I could say the same for the fanatic...(RIP my 6 lvl boss killer team)
Had two fat skeletons (bone commander I think?) With two courtiers in the back in room battles then a collector came to collect my guys. I though I was so God Damn lucky id get a shambler in the next tile!
I encountered the Collector on the run after the tutorial in the ruins he didn't actually manage to attack once because my vestal and Reynauld just kept him perma-stunned for the encounter, only lasting 4 turns because Dismas kept critting and super plague stacks
I encountered him with a level 0 party in the Ruins, it was the most soul-crushing battle I ever had; All of my party members started to die of heart attacks one by one after I fled from the fight, they just couldn't handle the stress of losing to the Collector. All my bois were literally shook asf.
@@maplebacon2724 i love the fact that everyone talks about their characters in terms of classes, and then there's reynauld and dismas who are part of the collective unconscious of this game now.
"Oh this game isn't so bad, my group's still alive and well" *Collector shows up* "Oh, what's this? A boss monster in a corridor?" *Collector's call* "Oh no.."
Hellion in particular is a goddess at killing the Collector. Iron swan him in rank 4, maybe yawp the heads, use breakthrough if you can dance and want to clap all the heads at once. Then there's Leper. I love him but he's almost useless against the Collector.
Crimson Curse isn't actually that bad, it's the micromanaging blood that's a pain - definitely nifty when you're doing short runs through dungeons for some decent damage if you get them craving
When you do normal run and then The twisted faces of the damned ,piled high and cloaked in malice appear So u get just more money or nice head I never had a party wipe and I finished one playthrough and now Iam at week 50 in blood moon :D
During one of my recent runs in the Weald, I encountered him. My Antiquarian bled out on her first Death's Door check, but I kicked his ass, grabbed what I could, and yeeted myself out of there. (I know, I should've left earlier, but I really don't want to have to face the Shrieker again.)
This is me, but with Shamblers. I have the stupidity to be greedy almost every time I see an altar. Full HP, low stress, near the end of a medium length 90% rooms mission? Yeah, I'm gonna summon it... aaaand I party wiped.
10? Fucking *W* *E* *A* *K* That guy's a pushover if you have a balanced melee-ranged party with a main healer in 2nd to last position. Also, DON'T FORGET THE TRINKETS.
@@borderlands10 Most people don't expect him to turn up though, I know what causes him to show up randomly but lots of people don't, so they're unprepared, get shuffled, bad rng, everyone dies because of stress, crits and probably not knowing wtf is going on. Also some morons may have just though that the shambler was a secret enemy and it'd be a cakewalk, so they used a torch on the altar. After 3000+ hours in the game I've only ever lost one character to the Shambler, and that was the first time when I was caught off guard by it. I've never lost a character to the collector, mostly because of the fact that I always have a method of hitting the backline because cultists and piggies are the fuckign worst.
diablofrag21 yeah my first time seeing an alter I used a torch and ended up getting my whole party wiped. Pretty sure I got shuffled and they were low health high stress anyways. I was exploring for loot. It’s really entertaining the first time you lose everything because you didn’t know you were releasing an eldritch abomination. Fun stuff
Pretty much yeah, he's a lot easier now, much less health. The strategy is pretty much to wipe out the highwaymen, they're literally the only threat, ignore the others unless you don't have any frontline, then wipe out the vestals. Even without anticipating the fight, it's always been a cakewalk for me. Backline attacks are good for any mission because of stress dealers, but also for this fight.

Devon Portis I always remind myself that the collector is a much easier to deal with problem than fanatic or shambler
I remember when I first started dd I ran into the collector and thought he was the first boss... I was wrong...
i once killed the collector and necromancer in one run because i thought the collector was the mini boss before the final boss :D

@@ricoarmstrong7440 He kind of IS the miniboss...he just shows up at random and does whatever the hell he wants. Which is usually collecting heads.
*hey little boy you wana see my "collection"*
"Oh this game isn't so bad, my group's still alive and well"
*Collector shows up*
"Oh, what's this? A boss monster in a corridor?"
*Collector's call*
"Oh no.."

*misses against a dodge of 7*

Collector shows up
Me: "Hmmm, these new 'ghoul' monsters are tough, I'm glad I brought my favourite hellion!"
Collector: "Favourite hellion you say?"
You have Iron Swan equipped? You do, right?
@@doommaker4000 he does not
Idiot, best hellion build is: wicked hack, iron swan, breakthrough, adrenaline rush
*"Swiggity swooty, being an inconvenience is my duty!"*
Underrated 👌
This has me laughing and sputtering far too much for far too long...
The Collector is cake if you can hit all ranks... And a nightmare if you can't.
*Leper sweats nervously*
Or if you have a pull ability equipped
Hellion in particular is a goddess at killing the Collector.
Iron swan him in rank 4, maybe yawp the heads, use breakthrough if you can dance and want to clap all the heads at once.
Then there's Leper. I love him but he's almost useless against the Collector.
@@SkyNinja759 hellion is a goddess at murder in general. She's good for everything expect bleed resisting enemies on rank 3
With new patches The collector got really hit hard with nerfs. 60 hp on Champion difficulty? Now the real problem is The Fanatic
Mikołaj Marszałek Yeah he's pretty weak now tbh, guess fanatic is the new champ
*fanatic and collector both show up at same* AAAAAAAAAH
*The Collector summons 3 Fanatics at the same time*
oh dear lord no!
Mikołaj Marszałek dont give them any ideas
That jumpscare got me good
Yeah...about sums up the first time I ever encountered collector. There was more "nope" going on than any other encounter I've had in a video game tbh
Thank God I had my army of crusaders to read him his sin's
Wait till you meet both the Collector and the Thing From the Stars in the same run
There has never been an enemy from a non-horror game that terrified me more than The Collector
Shambler maybe? Because collector is actually easy to kill...
M o s q u i t o e s
@@an_ordinary_goose: Such a small foe, yet such a deadly affliction...

The management of blood is the worst, this video was practically my reaction to my Flagellant getting the Crimson Curse on his FIRST RUN.
That scream nearly made me shit myself laughing.

you choked a turkey at the end
if he is afraid of the collector, please dont tell this person that the shambler exists.
This is me, but with Shamblers. I have the stupidity to be greedy almost every time I see an altar.
Full HP, low stress, near the end of a medium length 90% rooms mission? Yeah, I'm gonna summon it... aaaand I party wiped.
OMFG THIS IS GENIUS
Help! Ruin has come to my stomach
First thing that happens when I encounter the collector was, who is this?
Oh shit...
Oh, I killed him... Neat.
I once ran into the collector five time, within two hours of playtime
Too accurate.
New boss, the toaster collector
yes i also would be afraid if my toast popped out with a skull on it
GOD PLEASE
yesterday he wanted to take me by surprise... but this time it was over for him ^^
Thanks this is very useful
The fucking collectro was the worst in this game
Oh, you mean Shambler, right?
the Shambler took out like 10 of my dudes
10? Fucking *W* *E* *A* *K* That guy's a pushover if you have a balanced melee-ranged party with a main healer in 2nd to last position. Also, DON'T FORGET THE TRINKETS.

@@diablofrag2177 It once destroyed my party when i was walking with 0 Torch. After that i wrecked him with two abominations at the altar

It’s really entertaining the first time you lose everything because you didn’t know you were releasing an eldritch abomination. Fun stuff
G O L D E N ! ! !
Replace collector with fanatic
We good
Yay, I got like number 666
pls don't collect my soul Mr. Skull Head man
HOLY SHIT NO
Or the shambler, yesterday it apeared to me randomly xD
i love his voice
I’ll be honest, I didn’t have much trouble with the Collector the one time he appeared.
Now it's the fanatic :((
The first time I met the collector, I beat the shit out of him with my level 1 crew.
hes not even hard but he sure picks his sla- i mean minions right.
shambler shambler what a prick....
with last 7 hp shambler wiped my party :/
Soon i gonna have darkest Dungeon
I've found it twice. I killed it twice
bro just get houndmaster to do everything a musketeer too maybe a highwayman or man at arms
This made me loose 59 stress
As someone who has beaten the entire game.............................GOOD LUCK
Nice meme
I expected this to be very very shit. Owh boy, what a surprise. Was actually good
I absolutely hate him
So a tutorial on burning your bread?
People have issues with collector?
Look, serious comment here.
I just hope you have stun.
Otherwise good luck.
OH GOD HOW I HATE IT
the thing from the start: pathetic
just use hellion lol
Was the collector a hard fight before? It's really easy to kill him now
Easy? It's still a nightmare if you don't properly prepare.
Pretty much yeah, he's a lot easier now, much less health. The strategy is pretty much to wipe out the highwaymen, they're literally the only threat, ignore the others unless you don't have any frontline, then wipe out the vestals.

Admit it, you guys started to watch Darkest Dugeon related videos because Forsen just started to play it
Forsen's MOTD Nah m8, I'm watching Trump
No. For me it's because of baertaffy
Baertaffy is kinda the 'face' of Darkest Dungeon. Like how Northerlion is the Isaac RUclipsr.
Been here since early access before cove was even an area
