I've been feeling lately that Yellowhand is a better riposter than Rogue. 2 Bleed is around as much additional damage as you get out of upgraded Take Aim, with the upside that Duelist's Advance gives you nearly as many hits (and importantly, you can direct the first one and get the rest of the riposte tokens immediately, so you're not wasting it like you often are with late-fight Rogue risposte). Plus the bleed can chew through death armor, and you synergize with other bleed heroes like Jester or Surgeon.
I don’t remember when but you talked about intructice duelist being secretly goated Cobbled together alc pd . Instructice duelist . Maniac flag . Ravager Hellion Gtbh it’s super fun to play around with and hitting 2 30+ dmg howling ends in a row is a new feeling of euphoria I discovered Beat act 4 for the first time with it (it’s been 60 hours since I started)
I know this is unpopular but I prefer rouge over yellowhand. Place him in rank 2, turn 1 take aim and just spam wicked slice or whatever else you need to do. When you need to re up take aim, do it. I’m able to use up my reposte tokens just fine most of the time. Maybe I’m just lucky? Most of his damage comes from wicked slice. Also rouge take aim also heavily synergizes with rat skull+cruel intent on console with shambler pet allows you to exploit the blind tokens for lots of crits. Mainly because it doesn’t cure blind on rouge like it does on other paths so he can make use of the +66% crit from cruel intent instantly. I just personally find yellowhand very underwhelming the way I prefer to play highwayman as I never really use his open vein skill. Just my preferred playstyle. Honestly I don’t understand why duelists advance doesn’t inflict bleed on its own, I feel like it should. Maybe just apply a 1 (2 when mastered) damage bleed so it’s not too overpowered. Feel like that would only work for me if I’m using a dance team. Dismas is just not the character that I’m looking for to deal bleed damage. I’d rather deal big direct damage and gank bosses with execute 2 when I use him. If I want a bleed focused character, I’ll just use old soloist with slice off and harvest as he’s the best at inflicting lots of direct damage and bleed. He can hit ranks 2-3 while yellowhand can only hit ranks 1-2. While slice offs bleed damage doesn’t change even when mastered, it applies vuln which allows another character to deal more damage to that enemy.
I wish there was some indication that a buff applies to your whole team. I always thought banneret tenacity was terrible cuz why would I spend a turn giving 1 person block?? Same thing tripped me up with ounce of prevention
Just discovered the dd1 and loving the game, tried dd2 last night and it’s a totally different experience (not too sold in it yet) but I’ll give it more time..too bad it’s hard to find recent content for the first game
I don't know about best but I've had lots of fun running wanderer vestal in rank 3 with hand of light and judgment. The damage is surprisingly good and judgment hitting every rank is incredibly useful. The only things that suck are getting moved since HoL can be used in rank 4 and judgment can't be used in rank 2, and the damage can be really swingy. I swear I hit the min damage roll more on juiced up judgment than any other move except leper chop.
Can't say I ever thought of using Banneret up front before, typically just go Wanderer. I don't usually use Crusader for tanking (as there are seemingly so many better options) so Bulwark has never been a priority skill for me. Will have to give it a try.
I actually like Banneret as a backline dps/support. Recently I finished grand slam with Banneret Crusader>Alchemist PD>Wanderer GR>Wanderer MAA. The idea is to basically set up a combo with holy lance and blight something to death while having a team that's really hard to kill
I like him to start at 3rd rank and HL into 2nd on turn 1 to get rid of enemy back ranks asap. Then from the 2nd rank he can do all his support stuff. Works great with Jester who can shuffle with him in 2nd-3rd rank. Btw i did my Grandslam with: Hellion Ravager, Crusarder Banneter, Jester Virtuoso and PD Alchemist. I play on PS5.
Crusader, Aggressor, Zealous Accusation, Stunning Blow, Reap, Inspiring Cry, Holy Lance. Second rank to proc Holy Lance during a shuffle and crazy dots with huge trinket synergy from sprawl.
@@blackwidow7804 You don't use Aggressor for the damage, you use him as your tank and cleaner. Bulwark, Zealous, Inspiring, Battle Heal, Smite. Sit in rank 2, open with Bulwark and start tanking. If the frontlines have death armor or one's about to die, use Zealous next turn. Inspiring is used near the end of a fight or for emergencies, and Battle Heal is there when the main healer's busy. If you've got enough healing going around, swap it out for Holy Lance in case you get ambushed or shoved back. The fight typically ends with Smite, as Reynauld's been doing the tanking and has usually taken stress damage. Getting 2 stress healed at the very end means a lot for the journey to the next fight. Meanwhile, everybody else is free to go ham at the enemy team from round 1 and avoid a lot of punishment. *They* get to be the big damage dealers we all want them to be.
I came to realise I rarely ever run a team without either HWM or our queen grave robber. The backline single target damage is just so high value. Would like to change things up but don't really know good teams that can still deal with the backline, without running either of those.
Flag, arsonist gr, burning stars occultist, alc pd all work well enough tho most of these stick in the backline flag is special bcs he goes in the front
I wish Arbalest and HM were in the game already. Currently replaying DD1 and relishing in my backline disabling options. DD2 gives you very few ways of dealing good raw damage to the backline, which makes act 2 teams very very similar to each other. You bring a Hellion (kinda risky since it can move her back), HWM or GR, pretty much no other option, the others just debuff or apply DOT on the backline which the lungs are immune to. I'm still sad that my favorite hero (BH) never made it as a permanent hero. I would've done anything to have that CRIT! 80'ing stunning caltroping chud back permanently.
I just got completely destroyed by a collector fight, so I’m trying to figure out what I’m missing that makes me get steamrolled without the radiant flame
@@ShuffleFM I actually managed to beat act 2 after nailing the librarian fight, so I’m probably going to run through act 2 a few times to get some practice before going all in on act 3. Thanks for the guides :)
Also aggresor Crusader is honestly really easy plug and play type of char path. Bulwark for the start then when something is low hit with reap+ then stress heal with the roided up smite.

Yellowhand absolutely has a better riposte. Kinda crazy
@dylanboczar999 Yellowhand is lowkey bleed support
Shuf! Us console people are still waiting on that update! We need you to pull some strings at Redhook. We all know you’re secretly the devs
They said the patch was coming in a couple weeks via twitter. No set date though :(
I am also playing on console. Any chance that I can read some patchnotes prior to the upcoming patch?

The only thing I can think of is the tool tip shows the targeting as thin, green circles linked together. Definitely not the best indicator.
Usually run Warlock over Ritualist. Need to check it out

Hey shuffle. I was wondering, will you ever make more videos for DD1, or have you moved on from it?
I wanna finish up a few more guides and call it finished. Time and motivation are tough to get right now
