What you said toward the end about iron mace really fleshing the game out before our eyes, inviting us to participate and watch even, is super true and I think a lot of us feel the same
That joyous laugh you made 00:43 after the barb died gave me the perfect tabletop dnd encounter idea. A mad cleric posing as help to get the party killed so he can loot the treasure in the boss room
I love to watch videos of games I will hardly ever touch but get really invested in the stats and skills of that game. Thanks for being descriptive and showing item or perk details
I just got the game a few days ago, I had no idea it was even on steam briefly. I knew id love it. Naturally started off as a Cleric and did this exact build as I went along. Super fun and reliable good stuff brother 🔥
My brother in light this was amazing, im addicted to Dark and Darker content right now and THIS is the niche I've been looking for. I've been watching many others play this game, and it's so much fun to watch, but you've opened a new avenue for me. Everyone else I've watched is actually terrible at the game, apparently. With your knowledge of the mechanics / enemies, little bit of sweat and a dash of goofiness thrown in - this kind of video is perfection.
I am learning so much from you, I can't thank you enough. Been falling in love with this game. If you ever think coaching/training a newbie (that learns fast) would be a fun idea for you, and you're not farming leaderboards, hit me up ;) Keep up the great work, LEGEND!
surprised you didn't mention warlock when talking about what other classes could survive in that room with the fighter boxing you in, seems like the textbook case for phantomize
@sobadstrange why do you use the campfires so frequently. You usually have nearly full health & spells, and clarity potions available? Is it just an overabundance of caution?
if you're wearing light armor then yes because of how steep the curve is at the bottom levels of armor. going from 0 to 10 armor is big. but going from 200 to 210 armor isn't noticeable
How does your build compare to melee paladin style? I always wear full plate, aiming for half of my gear being +all and other half +weapon damage and just taking melee fights (after opening with Judgement) while fully buffed. I've never used Holy Strike, I just take Sanctuary as additional bit of survivability, since I very often play the swarm.
Exactly what everyone in here is saying. I turn liquid wealth into rubysilver ingots, gold keys, or buy really expensive gear. I give away a golden key every day on stream as well.
Sobadstrange you think you could make a guide on not getting shit on as a solo? I know all the vids are kinda that but like more focused on peasants like me that haven't extracted in the last 2 weeks of playing (like 14 hours of gameplay)
As a barbarian main, any spell casters are an instant panic button for me. But cleric and bard are the scariest. I went head to head with a bard and when I died I clicked over to him. His HP was full. So he either took very little damage or he was able to heal the damage faster than I could dish it out. I heard him buffing from the next room over so I knew it would be tough, but that was nuts.
@@CrackCatWantsPat But clerics already have good magic resist from their high will, either way the difference is negligible so I wouldn't worry about it
@@dr.sbrule5817 Good point about will. Do you stick with human race yourself or is elf/orc better? I know the difference is small but as a newplayer I'll take any small advantage I can get haha
@@P_steeza lot of people are having problems just buying the game due to the processing of payments. The website that does it seems like trash because this is a big issue
I personally see less geared people in HR Crypts (not sure on Goblin Caves) than normal these days. I prefer to run HR for the naked quick zero to hero runs. Kind of feels like the day of wipe.
Maybe you could just make the video brighter, because a person who doesn't know can only guess what's going on in the dark. But otherwise good job, I hope your work will teach new people as much as me :D
some of the grimiest gameplay ive seen, sometimes in good ways sometimes in just downright shameless ways i respect it to some degree, the game doesnt hold punches either i guess, and I mean it IS HR after all
You straight betrayed me in HR Goblin cave. I was the Brother Wizard, and how dare you. I was out of spells anyway though so you woulda killed me on your.. rogue anyway.
Thanks. I think 3 rouges is very unfair. Know the map and be kitted. Can really great Caster beat a 3-team kitted rouges. To me its player skill. And knowing the map.
@@SoBadStrange yeah on some classes i probably could but not on rogue 😭. I could tap one and they kill me. Thank you , i tilted pretty hard for a moment haha
Just played with you in high roller earlier today after the patch. Thanks for the boots but you kinda suck for killing a naked man. I enjoy your videos but that was just cruel
tHe DiViNe DiScIpLe xDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Hey, maybe if rogues in my lobby will also do nothing but hop left and right till u kill them - i will become a youtuber too 😂 Also whens the rOaRiNg BeRsErKeR barb or nONBiNaRy SoOtHsAyEr bard builds coming out? Hope right after tEmPeSt aRcHeR? Keep me posted buddy 😂
If I saw the Cleric From the Intro I would nope out so fast... This dude for sure getting me killed. BOY WAS I RIGHT! Nothing he could have done to live there.
be judged brother

@@SoBadStrangepls where you get your outro songs from? They are stuck in my head now
Man really be out here using a firebomb as a torch 😂 23:49
I love cleric in goblin caves yes please more of this!
Having pocket healed for so long it’s amazing to play this build offensive and aggressively.
That was the most hilarious thing I have seen all day 😂
Why do you divine strike then prot when pre-buffing? one is 20s the other is 30s, I'd prioritize the latter so strike doesn't expire earlier
This is a great tip I will implement into my runs henceforth: Prot then Divine incoming!
I felt a strong connection to the throwing the rangers gear play
Love in hr 3 the guy was like, that doesn't heal me

Earth wizard stamp of approval. Well Done.

Thoughts on running 15 armor and 15 magic armor instead of -50 debuff
I wouldnt in Goblin but I swap that for ruins and crypt.
I am learning so much from you, I can't thank you enough. Been falling in love with this game. If you ever think coaching/training a newbie (that learns fast) would be a fun idea for you, and you're not farming leaderboards, hit me up ;) Keep up the great work, LEGEND!
Tan off the tabor? Welcome to the dungeons my friend @tanvarian
Gotta respect the role playing ✊
What you did too that rogue was a d20 deception check.
nice flex session between the runs
whats "Dark and Darker Test Access" when you buy it? can someone tell me?
Not swinging but you are extremely good. Ranger op. Keep it up. Madness.
surprised you didn't mention warlock when talking about what other classes could survive in that room with the fighter boxing you in, seems like the textbook case for phantomize
True. That room was horrible im lucky i survived haha.
what was wrong with the rogue at the troll cave? He didn't turn invisible or ran to the door but just stood there with his rare loot (purple rapier)
Getting boxed and surviving is crazy! So tense
do you play in the same gear in 3s or do you use plate?
I use half plate and swap divine strike for large heal. Swap protection from evil perk for heal self for 15% of healing given.
Hell yea brother stranged you’re killing it, keep it up my man
@sobadstrange why do you use the campfires so frequently. You usually have nearly full health & spells, and clarity potions available? Is it just an overabundance of caution?
when you sold all the gear, where did the gold go ?
Is the -10 armor rating from skele race noticeable
if you're wearing light armor then yes because of how steep the curve is at the bottom levels of armor. going from 0 to 10 armor is big. but going from 200 to 210 armor isn't noticeable
@@Vizibl3 cool thanks
that ending was crazy good shit

Question, what happens to all the gold when you sell kits ? We see you sell items for like 1k+, and next clip you're broke ^^
I came here in the comments to find out too lol
He does a lot of giveaways, I think in this instance it was a gold key giveaway
Also likely transfers gold to his other characters
Exactly what everyone in here is saying. I turn liquid wealth into rubysilver ingots, gold keys, or buy really expensive gear. I give away a golden key every day on stream as well.
@@SoBadStrange thanks for the answer ! I love your content mate :)
what is your opinion on the current trading system
Needs work. Auction 3-4 items, the rest can be trade guilded. Like tarkov.
Sobadstrange you think you could make a guide on not getting shit on as a solo? I know all the vids are kinda that but like more focused on peasants like me that haven't extracted in the last 2 weeks of playing (like 14 hours of gameplay)
Save up your blues and run full sets. Potion of invis when teams near you. If goblin caves just git gud run gud gear stomp goombas
Rat king will always survive! 💯
35:02 yeah thats me :'( theyrealltaken. I remember thinking, how is he so fast??? I hear him right behind me!!!

Did you say The Devine Decifull?
Did you do other runs in between some of these? One moment you have 2k gold and the next you hve like 200... lol
No, I bought a gold key to giveaway on stream as i do everyday 🍻
@@SoBadStrange gotcha! So cool! I thought I'd lost my mind. Lol great job on the videos!
That Rogue was a paid actor...Definitely a threat assess failure on his part haha.
His mom gave him that bandage and told him itd save his life one day. 😭☠️😭
"would you like the light of the lord" "dude that doesnt heal me" i mean it wasnt suppose to heal you lol
Hhahaha BE JUDGED BROTHER!
How comes you pick Earthquake over Bless? Seeing you prebuffing but never using Earthquake 🙂
Earthquake has a way longer cast time but i have killed many people with it. Situational spell for sure.
Hey! Would you recommend using the skeleton for Cleric in all cases or is there a specific reason you're using it here?
he's using because its a skeleton, the stats make you objectively weaker to everything except wizards
@dr.sbrule5817 And wizards are the best class rn which maybe would be a good reason to run this
@@CrackCatWantsPat But clerics already have good magic resist from their high will, either way the difference is negligible so I wouldn't worry about it

does that worm have a chance to drop rusty key?
Yup! Its pretty much its only good drop at the moment
Savage, but who has you Flank? Mg Gigs could be wanting a 1v1. Ranger is a bit op. They will fix
4:25 u can ran away in cloth from a rogue? going agility moving faster than u? casue agility give move speed xD + when u get hit get slowed xD
Sometimes. It depends how fast they are too.
I love the "brother barbarian"
How u go from 2300 to 219?
I bought a gold key to give away on stream.
@@SoBadStrange cool man, best streamer ever
What happened to the gold after game 2?
I bought a gold key to giveaway to chat I give one away everyday ☺️
How to deal with rogues it fells imposible when they ambush you with even a green dagger
Always be buffed going into new rooms and swing at corners. Its tough though invisibility needs an audio cue or rework in my opinion.
Blue Kris dagger is new rouge meta. Why no take?!?!?
Swarm + I wanted treasure room. So much loot I needed a second backpack haha.
@SoBadStrange makes since. Love the content man. I wanna play this game so bad but xsello won't take my money

bro what
i usually play rogue but jesus, this makes me want to play cleric. just snowball off some half decent gear sounds possible
Snowball Gaming. Turn into an avalanche killing troll enjoyers.
discifle?
Wait shields are stacking?
Cleric Prot and Prot Pot do stack.
Absolute legend.
Where the 2k gold go it was gone in like 2 sec on the edit lol

Perfect intro haha
some of the grimiest gameplay ive seen, sometimes in good ways sometimes in just downright shameless ways
i respect it to some degree, the game doesnt hold punches either i guess, and I mean it IS HR after all
I hope they don't just focus on balancing and add in more fun too. They balanced a lot but I'm still waiting for leveling stats etc.
They are dw
Skilled out. I think rangers will be phased. Dream team…2 fighters and a very good cleric
Rouges come fast. If you get them wuick and ready
Show how to beat rouges
Thx for the armour bro
You straight betrayed me in HR Goblin cave. I was the Brother Wizard, and how dare you. I was out of spells anyway though so you woulda killed me on your.. rogue anyway.

@@NagaiAkagami fair enough. People find fun in different moments. I just like the feeling of seeing purple in a chest lol
well, now that there are less portals, you pretty much have to kill people at the end.

Kill on Sight
they have to take hp from strength and make hp a lesser attribute
YOU KILLED HIM LOL
Thanks. I think 3 rouges is very unfair. Know the map and be kitted. Can really great Caster beat a 3-team kitted rouges. To me its player skill. And knowing the map.
I'm not gonna go HR gc. 3rd time i did geared i gott
