    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.

    • @reubenthawmte8504
      @reubenthawmte8504 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      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.

    • @KevinShmelvin
      @KevinShmelvin 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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

    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

    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.
