If you feel you're strong enough to take an antiquarian with you, do it.
If you loot shit while she's selected you always get bonus loot that adds up really fast.

Rookie here, I just went through a early ruin run, about 8 weeks in. I passed by this weird curio that asked for a Torch. It was going on about the way to ruin, and if I seek the void...

Yeah I didn't have any more torches so I passed it by feeling pretty bummed, until I just looked at the fucking wiki!

Dodged that bullet...

Oh, and I saw two of them, is that weird? They were two rooms away, I found myself really cursing my lack of torches, and promising to bring more.

>>136126430
I heard somewhere that I shouldn't make any upgrades till I get at least 60000 gold as a cusion, so I haven't really upgraded shit. I've just been trying to find a decent way to make munnies. So far really wishing I had another Vestal and Antiquier...

Hey is there a limit to bad quirks you can have? I mean I know its impossible to stop them from coming, and way to expensive to purge them all, so I figure I just need to learn to live with them when they aren't a massive pain in the ass... Just like my OCD in real life!

>>136126845
Upgrading a team or two for bosses is fine. As long as you have 4 free slots in your roster you can always hire 4 level 0 heroes and do a short mission for money.

5 good perks and 5 bad perks is the limit. 3 bad perks will be locked in over time, and you can lock in 3 good perks for money. the other 2 will be switched out when you get new positive/negative quirks.

You can have up to 5 good and negative quirks. You character can have only 3 locked for both +/-.

Thanks guys, any particular perks to watch for and get rid of ASAP? I figure the Yips looks pretty devestating in the long run.

>>136127760
Any perk you think is worth getting rid of, you should. Since they'll lock in over time and that'll cost you more money to get rid of. Things like "can't use X for stress relief" or "-2 speed under 25 torch" are things you can consider just leaving.

All -manias must go. Immediately. No matter the cost.

Good quirks are everything that gives +ACC, +DMG, and Eldritch Slayer.

Should I feel like scum for only using kickstarter heroes at this point?

[Spoiler] I don't feel bad really, makes it less annoying waiting for specific heroes
>>
>>136128567

Speed quirks are instalock in my opinion, barely any trinkets give you speed and even just an extra +2 is significant compared to what quirks usually provide.

its not as 'fun' to watch as it is to play since so much time is spent thinking about your moves w/ lots of down time between battles. Like idk about you but I spend a good 10-15 minutes in the hamlet after most missions so I can't see that being super fun to watch.

I have a Vestal on my team, but what should I replace on my Arb out of Sniper Shot, Sniper's Mark, Bola, and Blindfire?

For note, the other two I have is Bounty Hunter and Houndmaster. Trying a marking fight on the prophet guy. Which I realize belatedly may be a bad idea.
>>
>>136139198
Both Bola can Blindfire can be used to hit the front ranks with Arbalest. Choose the one you like the most.

You can turn off Sniper's Mark if you have nobody that benefits from marked enemies on your team. You can switch out your skills at any time outside of battle.

I tried this game right before it was officially released but I refunded it. I kind of want it now. Should I? How's the difficulty curve? Is the community alive?
>>
>>136146258
The game can be really unforgiving at first and still a little less after dozens of hours, but after some time you'll begin to understand and remind yourself that most time you fail at something, it was your fault. RNG can and will fuck you over at any point, but trust me, when you know what you're doing, the game changes. With enough skill (for this game, a mix of knowledge, good strategy and good luck) you can overcome the majority of the hardships and challenges you face with little to no losses, and the times you end up turning the tables on a shitty situation feel fucking amazing, it's incredibly rewarding to do something right.
Not sure about the community, though. Kinda dead here.

PD, Occultist, BH, MAA

Works for me. The MAA's guard is handy for soaking pelagic guardian attacks or double groupers in front.
Groupers in 3-4 or quad groupers are a pain but I use the PD's stun and hope for the best.
BH has good utility, though an abom might be good too.

M@A (rear buff support, could probably use Jewfu instead), HM (guard M@A/Jewfu), HM (guard Hellion), Hellion (damage)
Stack dodge on the HMs to ridiculous highs with guard dog, have your position 4 mostly spam their party dodge buff, hellion kills as needed. When just two fishmen are alive, have the rank 3 houndmaster spam his stress heal and return everyone back to full hp / no stress.
Only works in areas with few to no AOE attacks, which is only really the Cove.
>>
>>136179361

Combo her with MAA or HWM. That's the best way to use her without her feeling like complete deadweight.

Give her speed/scouting trinkets, or leave slots empty if it's a Long Mission so she can carry the trinkets you find in the dungeon itself (with her ability to create them at campfires its possible you'll get one she can carry)/

The other two don't matter. You could have two Antiqs and make them guard two riposters on the frontline but you'll find it hard to mitigate the damage so it's best to just stick with one, and make your party more balanced.

I've not tested it out with the Jewfu yet, but I have tried it with the M@A and it works great, whereas the Jewfu's role would be almost identical except she would also have a targetable heal.
>>
>>136166536
Vestal - heals, stuns
HM - marking and damage, stress heal or guard in a pinch, can be swapped forward for stunning
BH - Main damage dealer, pulling, stunning
M@A - Stunning, buffing, guarding

This party runs a lot of stuns to mitigate enemy effectiveness and make guards irrelevant. -prot mark makes the three main prot enemies (sea maggot, crushers, and guard spammers) go down much easier.

Rookie here, I'm about 10 weeks in, and I've been working really hard to keep anyone from dying. I've bailed out of three different quests to do so... But should I? I mean it occurs to me that I've got three new schmucks showing up every time I come back, so this early should I even care about keeping them alive that badly? Should I be more brutal, and let them die as long as one or two make it back with the goods?
>>
>>136199569
Low level heroes are literally your least valuable resource. Unless you're playing from a roleplay perspective, they are expendable. Once you start really spending money on them with higher level gear and quirks it's a different story, but when you have a dozen new guys coming in every week losing one or two isn't a problem.
>>
Haven't played for quite a while, is the Antiquarian worth it? Seems like she'd be more of a risk than anything else, since I'd essentially only have 3 heroes.

She will usually add 5500 in value to an expedition, and each time you camp she has the potential to pull one trinket at complete random of any rarity, so you have equal chance of getting a stun stone or a sun ring or a blasphemous vial, etc.

She's definitely better than no hero at all. Nervous stab may not look like much but it's a fine finisher, think Sacrificial Stab on the Occultist. Protect Me is her signature skill and what you'll use the most. The ability to funnel attacks is always worthwhile and the prot/dodge bonus it gives is enough to make lighter heroes a lot less squishy. Combines in a powerful way with riposte heroes (HWM, M@A) or even just to make your normal tank tankier.
>>
>>136203749
I'd say she adds more like 7500
>>
>>136201839

She awards antiques that stack to values far higher than gold whenever you use her to inspect a curio and also from every fight. Also she increases gold stack size by 500 per antiquarian.

If you don't have the item for a curio, you normally want to skip it outright.
Unless you actually LIKE piling up stress and bad quirks.
>>
>>136226459
Marking is pretty much the only thing you can do to the pounder, so I suggest building a mark team

BH, HM, Arbalest, Vestal
HM gears for speed (Ancestor's Candle/Berserk Charm) so he can be sure to mark first, as the character with the lowest damage. HM can be used for his great stun rate when not refreshing a mark.

Vestal can divine comfort since pounder usually involves a lot of area damage

Arbalest and BH build for damage.
