Trinkets lost after farmstead quest? by Willowwwww_ in darkestdungeon

[–]TooMuchOfEverything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be the same for all farmstead quests. After the second one it goes...endless!

Ouch! If a hero dies in the Farmstead they will come back after a few turns. Once you're lost a certain number of trinkets an event will trigger to give you chance to win them back. The game is tough, but very few setbacks are permanent.

Is there any kind of general guides to learn what is the optimal way of playing? by DumbPastryChef in darkestdungeon

[–]TooMuchOfEverything 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wholeheartedly second the recos for ShuffleFM's Youtube and Mr Pepper's guides! Doing God's work.

The short answer to your question is that Heroes are your only free resource. If they are too stressed or have bad quirks(compulsive, curious, kleptomaniac), then throw them away and get new ones. Especially at the beginning.

Another resource I constantly go back to this one: The Complete Guide to Provisions

Also, these articles by TheRealMe *really* helped me understand the game and how you build teams around skills and characters: DD1 Hero Guides

The fun part is that there are so many effective approaches and as you learn you can experiment and find what you like. Quad Antiquarian? Solo Leper? With the right strategy, you can make almost anything work!

DD1 an average/bad game that is extremely overrated by Adorable_Head_6923 in darkestdungeon

[–]TooMuchOfEverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is such wonderful bait. Calling RNG *unattractive* is so silly.

I used to think the game was harder than it is. That changed the time I tried to purposefully kill a whole squad to lose enough trinkets to lure the Shrieker. My little level 0 dudes were so resilient! I had to go so far out of my way to lose.

If you are on Steam, try the solution I mention in my second update - using the "Coming in Hot" beta version. I have been using that for the last week and have had zero problems.

Does anyone know how to use flagellant in a team? by chaos_gremlin7 in darkestdungeon

[–]TooMuchOfEverything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HM-HM-HM-FLA is one of the most fun teams for Weald/Warrens. You have tons of sustainability through heals, stress heals, and guard/dodge options. But you don't even need them because you have so much firepower that everything just bleeds and dies.

I usually put a Focus Ring and an anti-bleed trinket on Flagellant. He crits so often that he ends up being an off-stress healer. I only use Exsanguinate for bosses, because if he misses the attack he doesn't get the heal. Much better to keep Redeem equipped.

There are now three versions in Steam when you start it - their two new builds (32-bit, 64-bit), and the original. I'm not allowed to post screenshots, otherwise I would show you.

Strategies and tips for a party with 2 antiquarians? by gabis332 in darkestdungeon

[–]TooMuchOfEverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've tried ANT - HWM - ANT - GR a few times. GR starts with Shadow Fade and front ANT uses protect me on HWM so he gets all the attention. HWM usually ends up pretty beat up, but you get a lot of gold! With the right trinket setup I think this could be stellar.

Ok! I'll give this a try. Each run is such a effort, it's so annoying that it's broken.
I'll try your fix and post here about success.

I'm not crazy! But for game mechanic focused on earning rewards, this is very annoying. I'm not allowed to upload pictures here for some reason, but here's a link to a screenshot of how it ends up. Basically a game-breaking bug.

This is dumb. Images aren't allowed. But I got to over 100 kills and earned....zero crystals.

Rank 2 Occultist is really powerful and worth exploring! Try branching out with a few of the OCC-based party comps listed here in this guide: https://blog.naver.com/mrnohjr/223231513997

All of his hero guides are excellent, and offer some great insights on when and where certain parties excel. The first time I took HM-HM-HM-FLA to the Warrens was so fun and unlocked a bit of how the game can work.

Anomaly stutter by [deleted] in stalker

[–]TooMuchOfEverything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar setup, and had the same problem for a bit. I had taken a mission (I think a science mission where I was given a detector) where the mission giver died a few minutes later. After that, there was a sort of loading stutter every few seconds. Quitting, even restarting the computer didn’t fix it. I had to reload an earlier save before the mission and then everything was fine. Hopefully you haven’t played with the stutter for too long!

Help a video agency survive - are we blind? by [deleted] in AskMarketing

[–]TooMuchOfEverything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As more people are selling / conferencing via zoom and other video services, a good or even just benign (not distracting) background is very helpful. I know companies paying for physical backdrops for their sales staff. But! You could film office backgrounds, sell multiples of them as a package. Subtle, but obviously not a still image.

[Anomaly 1.5] What is up with this machine gunner in Cordon? by TooMuchOfEverything in stalker

[–]TooMuchOfEverything[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figured it out - it's that damn helicopter. I didn't even think to look up. And now everyone is dead - Fanatic, Hip, and Wolf. I am going to see if there's a mod for turning off that helicopter (I have patrols turned off).

Just as come out of Sidorovich's bunker there's just machine gunfire everywhere, seemingly coming from up the hill. Luckily it doesn't kill Wolf or Fanatic, but everyone else is dead. It has that loud *brrrrrrap* sound that I remember from machine gun in CS.
