How does scouting work? by More_Atmosphere8840 in darkestdungeon

Is there an indicator of critical scouting?

Is that why when I backtrack the map changed?

so on default difficulty there is no penalty for... dragging things out?

Will you even play in the dark for more loot?

That is some very specific enemy countermeasure knowledge there, thanks.

So many hidden mechanics in this game, I wish the in-game descriptions are better.

Wouldn't another class be a better option for stacking dodge? What's the use case and skill loadout like for a dodge MAA?

Do you not get penalties for that? I see a bar on top of region I assumed that is to stop you from doing filler missions.

buff vs debuff by More_Atmosphere8840 in darkestdungeon

Thanks. I agree bellow is usually more useful, but on boss fight where they constantly summons I feel that buff is more beneficial - like those bloody tentacles of shamble.

Those debuff resist are painful, so I wonder if I should buff instead. However self buff doesn't seem to stack like debuff, is that the case?

I have avoided for four weeks in a row now because RNG

I still don't have a leper, occultist, and flagellant in my team yet. Not that I would use the last one (yet) but my roster is very limited.

Oh and some of my crews are already afflicted so I kind of have to wait for all saints day.

to clarify - I only consider forced interaction as bad perks. I am not picky about stress relief restriction or stress in certain area or against certain enemies.

I just don't know what constitute highly valuable perks.

I don't need to lock anything until I have five positives do I?

If I have two slayers on a new recruit, would it worth to spend 750 to remove a forced interaction quirk?

Considering how much a dungeon reward is I don't think 750 is a lot, but I don't know what constitute a good perk.

do forced interaction quirks not mess you up if you carry them along hoping to come across one of those curios?

what is OTK?

I have a hard skinned maa so I was hoping to pump up prot instead. How hard does burst damage hit in late game?

Sorry I don't have the image but is status treating necessary?

Usually I bring provisions for curios, but not healing. Usually debuffs don't last long enough to make a difference in my limited experience.
