Hello and welcome to the end of the Mercenary Barracks! We had a little bit of a bump start, but I would say that we adapted quite well to Fate forcing our hands, which bodes well for our Supreme Lord of the Dead. I don't have too many timestamps for you today, since we basically Terror Blasted our way to great victory, but I do have a few: Straight to Combat! 4:39 | Bork 40:36 | Boss fight timestamp! 47:24. Ignoring mechanics/threats is my second favorite thing in the world, so this was a fun boss fight. What's the first, you ask? Why, breaking the game, of course! :D
Just a note on the ashes interaction: The first time the ashes are applied, that will stipulate the damage per tick. Thus a Dhamp with + dmg features such as the Spear stacks or Halo etc should prioritise thier initiative, as the other applications of Ashes will simply add stacks, rather than adding an entirely new debuff. Also this interaction applies with infectious lunacy too, as if you simply keep applying stacks, you won't lose the benefit. (That is for a single target - if you attack a new target you will need to buff up or debuff the target)
I agree with you on the difficulty, i personally don't have as much trouble on the second floor, my biggest issue is the new two tile automatons. You can do some fun manipulation with the Beserkers, as they will always go beserk which increases dmg taken by 50%, which so long as you can kill them before thier next turn, effectively adds a permanent dmg bonus when facing berserkers. The hardest enemy for me is probably the headsmen on floor 1, they are just so tough with tonnes of ward, really scary early on lol. Hardest fight is defo magister. Edit I also would love to see Kevin onehitting the boss!!!!
The second floor is really weird. It can either go smoothly or.... end in absolute disaster. The Automaton helps push things towards disaster, but I usually don't have too many issues with it if I have a Black Widow. Their venom is *really* good against the Automaton's monstrous hp pool. Agreed. Screw the Headsman. Grand Magister, huh? I've always kind of rolled over him, but my last venture through EH3 definitely showed our frightening he can really be. The pieces are being assembled....
I do still read comments on old videos.... as long as TH-cam tells me about them. After some investigating, it turns out that this, in fact, *is* episode #10! My counting skills failed me, so I'll go ahead and correct it now, sorry about that and thanks for letting me know! (:

My life's mission is now to figure out how to best manipulate this. Thanks for the tip! :D
Does this foreshadow the great Kevin one shooting the final boss?
It certainly foreshadows something. (:

Hah, there are some games that I prefer to watch others play rather than play myself, so I definitely understand it.
Dunno if you still read these old video's comments, but whatever happend to #10 in this playlist?
