![]() All these penalties mean that, regardless of difficulty every Hero will most likely go on a mission only once, so choose your composition wisely. On Radiant difficulty, Heroes can be reused for subsequent expeditions into the Darkest Dungeon, but at a very high cost - they will immediately enter with 80 Stress, and their Virtue chance will be reduced to the bare minimum of 1%. Additionally, Marked Heroes will not occupy a slot in the roster, meaning you can recruit 4 more without dismissing anyone or having anyone die. However, even though they cannot be used in the Darkest Dungeon again, they can still be a major asset to you: it's still possible to send them on other quests, and they grant additional resolve XP to all other party members from then on. Such Heroes are marked by a torch in a Hero roster and candles on their stat page. You should also be aware that you cannot retreat at all during the game's final quest.Ĭharacters who successfully complete a quest in the Darkest Dungeon will - on Darkest / Stygian difficulty - refuse to go back ever again. ![]() If you must flee, unequip all Trinkets before abandoning the quest to avoid losing them. However, if there is only 1 party member left, they will escape safely. You can't easily retreat from the Darkest Dungeon, either, should things go south: when you retreat, a random party member will die (representing them holding off the monsters to buy their comrades time to escape). Almost every attack will induce stress, every blight and bleed deals high damage, and every encounter has a good chance to be the last. You can pretty much "script" combat during preparation (only thing that really screws you up is random crit spam and surprise shuffling), but you really don't want anything interfering with the damned curios.First and foremost - the Darkest Dungeon is nothing like the challenges you’ve faced before. Otherwise, the game is more about handling the various curios exactly right and walking out with the most cash than it is about combat. Only quirk of that sort which is acceptible is one which makes guys open sacks and backpacks, because other than getting bad loot because it was done at bright light nothing can go wrong. Those bones in the warrens which you pour holy water on for loot? Have some stress instead! +30 damage until rest (stackable, stack a few, never rest) for some herbs? NOPE! The damned graves are actually worth sacrificing a shovel for, but no, here's a disease instead! It goes on and on and on and on. You're in a long weald run, so you brought medicinal herbs so that you can get food off of animal carcases? Screw you! Wanna clear a locked in -5 spd -5 dodge on the first turn? Here's some stress instead. Or you're carrying medicinal herbs around in the ruins just because the iron maiden gives loot for those - NOPE have some claustrophobia. Or the urn in the ruins? You brought some holy water to turn it into a big bunch of jewels? Too bad, here's a disease. You brought the holy water specifically because there's a curio in there which lets you destress a guy mid-run, and the idiot does the opposite and goes nuts. ![]() Some dope gets the one where he likes to go into confession booths. And some curios just end the run right there if they're mishandled, or even touched at all. Yeah, the slogan of this game is "the grind is the gold", and the way you get said gold (and discounts, and food so you can keep going) is by using the proper junk on the proper curios.
