  • Could have killed him on round 3 with cause of death but I was having too much fun.
    Malediction is still ass and deserves a buff but this boss is ass too so I guess those two cancel each other out.

    Cause of death is such an interesting ability. DOT forces your damage to trickle in, the PD changes that. Still takes set up of course but ALL of your damage coming through early? That's amazing. Good stuff!

      @TheJaga 2 года назад +4

      @@eddieabysswalker6408 I believe the issue isn't even on the total damage that you can deal with dots (DD1 was quite similar at times) but more of a how death resist is annoying, making dots much more valuable because every tick of damage could potentially relieve pressure on your party by killing an enemy before he could attack and also in theory giving you more attacks per turn in a way (dot + hero action)
      tbh idk if they should balance it or nah
      in a way would make the game more acessible to a wider audiance, but on the other hand will cripple that feeling of "this run is hopeless and yet I'm managing to win every encounter" that darkest dungeon is famous for
      I have a friend that won't even touch DD2 out of fear of frustration, since he saw me playing and struggling with a wilbur just resisting all deathblows, even killing one of my party members during that

      Disagree, this video certainly doesnt prove that)
      Dreaming general is obscenely weak vs plague grenade+abyssal, also without dot res debuff there would be a bunch less dots on him.
      Riposte, multitarget attacks, attacks that ignore positive enemy tokens, powerful attacks which inflict special vulnerability, combat control abilities are on par with dots.
