I wish there were event nodes in DD2 like the ones in slay the spire. Events that appear randomly per region but have fixed rewards. Like the vampire event or the sacrificial dagger event or the duplicate event. Academic studies are like that a bit but they just give random unnecessary stuff or just very weak or situational trinkets. I think this game needs to add rare powerful trinkets that change the run instead of the boss trinkets being the best thing.
Agreed
The academic study is too inconsistent. I almost always skip it if I'm in the near end of my run or mid way.
@@reubenthawmte8504 think of it like this. You go to a node and chose a hero to infect with bloodlust. Or have a hero turn crystaline by the shard or offer trinkets that get stronger every battle. Or trinkets you have to unlock by doing certain tasks.
I feel like DD2 is playing it really safe with the things you get per run. There is no broken combo like the deadbranch curuption like in slay the spire. Something that you will get 1 in 10 runs if less that lets you break the game.
The SFX on En Garde has a 100% base chance to give player Chills
Also worth noting is that with full stagecoach armor everyone starts a fight with Block, so having that upgraded by Stone Mount is also very good.
I didn't know that about armor on stage coach
I find this boss significantly easier than the others so I tend to target it frequently during my runs.
This was really well made! I don't mind your more "rambly" videos, but nicely edited, scripted content like this is a pleasure to watch.
I just got into dd2 so I'm really glad you're still making fresh content for it. I currently suck, and can't get past chapter 3. Haven't even gotten to the obsession boss yet. Imma keep pushing though!
You can do it!
Chapter 3 is definitely the hardest, a lot more than the final even if you have 4 memories on each hero...
The intro was pretty fire not gonna lie, really cool!
Footman's Grog carried me on my Act 5 run.
Cardinal's Exultation & Strange Axis kept my party buffed every cultist fight 👍.
The only thing the region guide is probably missing is lair boss trophies. A brief overview of those might be helpful for guide-watching players in making a decision of which lair boss to go for.
I think they deserve their own quick guide.
Ah shit there's always something XD
the general root trophy for the crusader reveal. Pos 4 Reynauld and Pos 1 Dismas. PBS + Lance every turn
Never thought that one of the top tips for beating a boss would be “Oil up the root”
The Tangle is my favorite region. I pretty much always hit it, especially if I have a MAA that I can kit with the incredible tanking trinkets.
The dangling vines can get taunted and takes those tokens fyi
not sure if it was pointed out, but The Soil Stirs and Creeping Growth do follow Taunt mechanics (that is, if you have a taunt token before the action occurs, your Taunting hero will be one of the two targeted). it's somewhat difficult to use, but it also means that a constantly taunting MaA or other similar tanks can soak up damage very consistently.
So I didn't know the roots could be returned if you hit the thing in the back... And this was just a damage race. Always ate one nightmare every time. First time, it wiped me. Second time fowards, I always took a raw damage party and got it killed in no time.
It was the same with me, this video autoplayed for me and that's how I found out you should hit the vines:) I also beat the general on the second try, with bunch of blight while everyone was being strangled lol.
Holy Moly the editing! Its so good!
LEST GOOO!!! LOVE THIS GUIDES!!~ u really help me a lot! plus i just start play this game ... soo i was in pain but!!! all of your vids really help me out
That was a great video - looking forward to watching the other regions!
This is fantastic! I hope we get more of these region videos!
i think combat nodes should give guaranteed mastery points. sometimes it feels really bad to get only 2 mastery points in a region just because of bad RNG
For the Armoury key you can get really lucky and get the bonesaw from Churgeon, then it's easy to get both buffs
Very well made, and I hope the other factions get sick-ass intros like the one here. Excited to see the breakdowns for the other regions.
Excellent guide thank u 🙏
Having 2 units that do AOE to back line like Flagellant and Plague Doctor then you win that fight super easy. Just top up your health while doing DoT
The next area you cover has to be the Shroud.
I've been saying it since launch, but there is definitely an area imbalance with the Tangle and Shroud being literal hell (from enemies, to bosses, to rewards, to your GPU when it comes to the Tangle LOL) compared to the Sprawl and Foetor which, not only have some of the best trophies and trinkets in the game imo, but are also mostly chill areas where things usually don't go wrong unless you make a stupid mistake or get really unlucky.
Covering the two hardest areas (which also unsurprisingly host the two hardest lair bosses) would be highly appreciated.
5:36 hes literally me
The intro is totally badass
a full blight team makes the general so free lol. just spam acid rain and plague grenade to hit both targets, and graverobber can poison dart the root if PD or flagellant need to heal. i usually take highwayman to tracking shot the general before using sepsis so PD can still use cause of death on the next turn (completely overkill but very funny). u can also tracking shot the root if both PD and flagellant need to do something else. i just got to ambition the other day and because i had yellowhand highwayman *both* bosses were a breeze
The dreaming general has been slapping my shit every time even when half of my team has back line damage to manage the vines. They just never leave on the characters that I need them to leave alone.
Thanks for the excelent content
Stone Mount and Blistering Bugle helped me create a makeshift tank with HighwayMan through his Double Cross ability
It “Sudoku’s” 😂 definitely know you meant “Seppuku” but now I just imagine him drummer in a lawn chair with a newspaper, trying to fill out the blocks with his drumstick and getting so frustrated he dies 😂😂😂
Came to see what i've been doing wrong. Killing this boss but losing half of the party.
Turns out i was doing everything right. It's just boss is a complete BS. With forcing 2 of your party members to spend turns on hitting root (if you dont have some combat items, which you dont have many on first playthroughs), then having to heal 2 of your teammates getting hit by walking dead, then having to kill the boss.
So if you dont have combat items - it is really hard to do
Feet soldiers are so pushed, they have death armor, hit for decent damage and have block.
Feet soldiers, huh? Do they have...
_sexy feet?_
Can we get a guide for the Shroud I find it to be the hardest
I'm still pretty new to the game and was doing a run yesterday with full DOT run to see if I could finally beat Act 2 boss (I suck at the game lol) Alchemist PD for Blight and heal, Virtuoso (fuck the bleed path, Virtuoso best path for anything) Jester for Bleed and Stress heal, Arsonist Runaway for Burn and Cauterize, and Scourge Flagellant for tanking, the massive heals and ally DOT removals. Run was going extremelly well and while I wasn't planning on facing any specific lair I ended up in the Tangle as region 3 and I was upset yet kinda laughing how I fcked up the root management and my party was wiped out... EXCEPT for the flagellant, mf refused to die and wanted to solo the boss and once the Toxic started to ramp up it was over for the General. Still soloed the rest of the region unil the Obliviong thingy they started to stack bleed and a lucky crit took me out, honestly my favorite tank, but have to experiment with its moveset, if I read the skills thouroughly and realized Acid Rain can hit the root maybe my party wouldn't have died
Hey just wondering if you have any videos on the different flame difficulties? And like maybe what stats or things become more of a priority compared to normal difficulty
Interesting idea :)
Can more than one of the Clenching Claws effect trigger at once? Similar to 50/50 chances in the first game sometimes both happening or not at all? Like weakening and stunning simultaneously?
It shouldn't. Might be too good lol
I legit didn't know you could attack the taproot. I usually got nightmare once every fight and went into it accepting I'd have to deal with at least 1 meltdown
Probably my fav region, exept for the Dreaming General boss which has no replay value, but that's a problem many other bosses have.
I only do tangle if I'm playing act 4, to prevent knowback from the mountain boss
0:27 - Themes looks like memes lol
My favorite region
Does dreaming general tap root behave differently with 2 stacks vs 3 stacks of rooted? Like does 3 stacks create a stronger version of waking dead?
I think 2 sets the target and 3 activates it. Doesn't boost damage or anythibg
Does Death get a special buff of DD like the Knight?
I don't know actually
Does the Reverberating Redoubt damage reflect proc Malediction?
99% sure it does not :(
@@ShuffleFM Awww that sucks, imagine the synergy with some taunts and riposte
Can you find multiples of the same trinket in a single run or do you just get one?
Do you have a reanimated rabbit run on your channel?
I have a few. Check the dd2 1.0 playlist and look for a thumbnail with a rabbit in it
Does Chaplain Vestal still get conviction tokens, if she is targeted with Creeping Growth or The Soil Stirs?
Not sure actually. I think so?
@@ShuffleFM It was absolutely hilarious to notice that the first time. Mace Bashing the General over and over again must be the rudest of wake-up calls.^^
Technically, wouldn't it be better to let general get 2 stacks on your slow characters while keeping your fast ones at 1? For example MAA and Leper are never going before PD, I don't think there's any daze/stun in this fight. So PD can just let them simmer until one of them gets strangled, then clear it all the way with plague grenade while keeping a combat item in case she needs to clear a 2stack from a character that might go before her.
You can but I don't think it's worth the effort lol
Do the sluice next
Just like old times
I really hate the Sleeping General. That Waking Dead Crit Bleed has killed quite a few of my characters.
my beloved 95 % crit rate Foot Soldiers
I'm kinda annoyed you didnt show the nightmare attack. There aren't any video on it. Would love to see the attack.
It's just waking dead but hits all four heroes. It isn't common as it is one of the skills players tend to actively avoid/ignore.
Going into Tangle first is great move because if you beat general, you have fifty/fifty chance that you get one of the best trophies in the game that can hard counter Leviathan, Harvest Child and certain cultist enemies. Plus it makes drawbacks of certain heroes with their dance moves not a problem anymore (Jester)
Immobilize doesn't prevent Undertow AFAIK
@@br0ck689 It does, your first hero only needs to have hight movement resist, as undertow checks for movement resist and if it fails, it will go to the front and if first hero gets failed check, they get taken, but 2nd hero will ALWAYS resist it because he cant move.
I feel so stupid i can't defeat this boss 😂
Keep at it!
Please Red Hook, enough with the generic zombie guy enemy. More Eldritch ugly dudes like the Exemplar.
wdym, the tangle is pretty good for what it has
is this game still alive? xD Player base dropped by a lot but price is even higher than EA xDDDDDDDDDD
Some low effort bait dude. Do better.
i just did a run of this, and every time i damaged the root, it receded from a hero that it didn't need to recede from :)
Boss is easily beatable with 1 character that attacks both the stem and general such as pd plague grenade or occultist spaghetti attack
