Another addition, not entirely sure which one but pretty sure it’s the skeleton with the shield, they have a shield bash and a thrust attack (separate)
is it worth binding crouch to a diff button? I'm new and it seems kind of odd crouching to hit a matrix and moving left to right while remaining crouched vs demon berserker. Or is there a toggle crouch option i haven't found it if there is lol
@@JorDossey Do you have to be so selfish to use pinned comment to ask a simple question you can quickly google the answer for? Now to answer the question: I've been using ctrl for over 2 decades and tried(or rather was forced to by default settings) different buttons and can clearly say it's on of the best buttons you can use. You could also use mouse buttons, but that takes time to adapt to. Toggle crouch is only good for camping in the corner, there's a good reason you see it less in games.

This is so unbelievably lame. People like you and those who consume this content are massive meta-gaming losers. You're the reason why multiplayer gaming has consistently gone downhill for over a decade, just play the damn game bro
I have over 3000 hours on record in dark and darker at this point and ive been playing since the second playtest. At the point I am now I take all of this information for granted and it is great to see someone pass this information along to what may be a whole new generation of dark and darker players
I have watched your content since I started playing 2 wipes ago. I just wanted to thank you for this guide as it was massively helpful in the beginning - It was so good in fact that I still remember your voice when dodging harder monsters such as the Demon Berserker. Thank you so much!
Just started playing and watching you dodge every enemy with ez while beating their head in with a mere torch and explaining how to perfectly counter every enemy I have trouble with was insane.
As someone who hasn't played since 12 months ago, it's nice to see not *too much* has changed. Excellent video, just the right level of detail w/o any fluff x
This is a great guide, man. I've noticed that the nightmare skeleton archer's third shot seems like it fires with the projectile speed/accuracy bonus of a ranger's true shot, but not 100% on that. Great advice on everything!
Once again, professional work! This is a perfect video for beginners to look for help. Also I'd like to point out is to pay attention to "white effects" these enemies do during their attack animations. For example, demon dog's bite attack wont hit you immediately. Thank you so much for these videos!
This is a great, comprehensive, but straightforward guide, I will direct new players to this from now on. One thing that I would like to add is that you can use corners/pillars to great effect against mobs, especially mini bosses.
Omg, i watch the part with skeleton champion and u were like playing with him like a kid. To hit them with the torch u are a genius. So simple when i watch u but it's a nightmare in real life. I love the hardcore pve part of Dark and Darker
Just got into dark and darker 3-4 days ago and man this guide has helped me so much. I remember going into some dungeons just getting obliterated because i didnt understand the movement in this game but i can honestly say this guide has helped me reach all the later game areas and deal with the mobs with ease. Thank you so much man, great guide, and straight to the point!
Finally downloaded since it went f2p on steam. I already can tell I'll be sinking a lot of hours into this and plan on upgrading. Very informative video thank you I'm sure I'll be coming back for more at some point!
Thank you. I’ve been trying to explain all this to my girl but you are much more concise and show examples. Linking her this video now. Earned a sub especially with the other guides coming. Gonna save me so much headache with her 😂
Just started playing this game yesterday, having a blast so far learning the different classes and maps. Definitely die almost every time before getting to exit lol Subbed!
Hell yeah! I've been getting better the last few days but this will definitely help so much! I been noticing these crazy tactics that the pros seem to use and glad someone has now taught me wtf is going on
Fucking insane video. If you continue to output content of this level you will be one of the top content creators im sure for this game. Good luck and thank you, looking forward to the GC and FM/Abyss map guides for enemies
Just started playing DaD recently, appreciate the dodging guides, I felt pretty good while using a shield but started taking lots of damage when trying to dual wield
When it comes to the Berserker, i figured a rather reliable way of fighting them, the counter clockwise jump and crouch, you continue to strafe counter clockwise around the zerker, always hitting him but you duck his right to left diagonal and jump/jump crouch his left to right, i would say this requires a little bit of space and preferably no interruption from teammates cause they can screw up the cycle by blocking you but even with full plate as a cleric this has been my most efficient way of dealing with them.
btw we can still crouch duck his attack but you got to keep rotating with him, and make sure to be looking straight down or you will get hit ( Axeman )
14:20 Randomly travel around the map my ass lol. They home in on me every time xD Great video, been playing awhile but like seeing what strats everyone uses :D
This is such a good guide! I was doin so much wrong but also had already picked up on a few things mentioned such as to not back peddal but strafe and just use your mouse to look left or right so you are then strafing out of attacking range instead of slowly walking backwards. Now if we could just get the fully geared veterans to not camp the portals in solos waiting to chop us level 20s down like brush in the jungle 😂🤣 Game is seriously fun, hard as hell but fun.
fantastic video ive been playing DaD for over 300 hours and this covers so much stuff that even i didnt know as a high roller grinder ty for the tips and tricks ive improved a fuck ton after watchin this video bro @notlikethis
Also something that I don't think is mentioned in this video that I saw mentioned elsewhere: you can cheese the wraith in areas without high terrain to jump on by just finding a slope (like, some stairs or something). You can crouch jump every one of his attacks point blank (even the lunge) when you do this.
Rule of thumb, if you are able to cheese a mob, cheese the mob. Faster clearing (and by that I man not super slow clearing) and less chance of getting hit
Great guide! Alternative way to dodge demon berserker is to circle strafe which makes the attack from the same side miss, and crouch jumping the attack from the far side. Easiest way IMO.
Some additions and fixes: Nightmare dragonfly can combo its attacks to 2. So be careful baiting its attack, because it can catch you offguard with coming another shot. Nightmare mimic cause poison with its attack.
Thank you for the complete and clear analysis of all the features of the monsters; after 200 hours in the game, I still don’t know all the subtleties and mechanics. I was amazed by how calm you are next to such terrible enemies... panic made me run) and knowledge.. it’s not for nothing that they say that knowledge is power - thank you for sharing the Power) Unfortunately, I recorded a video myself in a solo game... I couldn’t see from the outside what was happening to the enemy... so I couldn’t make a similar guide. All the best)
Just the first two tips alone would be enough to be a game changer. I learned those from some other video and went from dying constantly to extracting with full bags of loot and shooting to level 15 in like 3 rounds - just murdering AI mobs with bait and punish and turning away to get more speed.
I've only started playing recently. One of my favorite cheese strats as Druid was going Rat and kiting a bunch of mobs into a room full of spikes. It netted me so much XP and loot... until the spikes bit back. RIP Rat. 😆
Additions and Corrections:
The Nightmare Mimic also applies a poison upon hit.

Hey big dawg, new guy here, what are the orange stairs for?
Bros addicted
is there anything you disagree with
@anco7273 that's for going to hell, it is a completely different map layout with a boss in the center and more difficult mobs
@@DaddyMaster76 yes I am

This rundown was well thought out, well presented, and contains great information. Thank you for posting.

I giggle everytime you bait and punish the skeletons with a bonk to the head with a torch 😂

This made a world of difference. Played about 6 hours and switched of rouge to ranger and can now confidently clear rooms and extract. Thank you.
Best guides i've been finding so far. Great job man!
Great guide even for this 150 hour player coming back to the game after 6 months. Liked and subscribed!
This is a great resource for newer players, I hope you follow this up with a similar guide for the other two biomes!
Truly great work my dude, I have over 500 hours and still learned a thing or two
Omg, i watch the part with skeleton champion and u were like playing with him like a kid. To hit them with the torch u are a genius. So simple when i watch u but it's a nightmare in real life. I love the hardcore pve part of Dark and Darker

Absolutely MUST watch video if you're starting the game. Excellent tips and guidelines for everyone !
Great job brother. Hopefully the new people find there way to ur channel
Excellent advice, thank you! Didn't realize the character's body moved as it does based on where you're looking. Game-changing info.
Finally downloaded since it went f2p on steam. I already can tell I'll be sinking a lot of hours into this and plan on upgrading. Very informative video thank you I'm sure I'll be coming back for more at some point!
Great video. Just sent it to my friend who started playing this week. Thanks!
Thank you for taking the time for recording and explaining all these monster attack patterns.
Been playing rogue and skeleton swordsman were basically guaranteed deaths for me. The tips for it helped IMMENSELY.
ive played enough of this game to understand most aspects of the game but still love watching any content about the game, great vid :)
Your video has been really helpful for a new player! Thank you so much!

Thank god for your video. I'm new to dark and darker and I'm experiencing the growing pain. Thank you friend
I started today and have died around 20 times but got my first exvil and made 200 gold lol. Still havent killed a player yet
Really great videos for someone just starting out with Dark & Darker and just want a quick run through of things.
Just about to open the game. This was an amazing watch thank you!
Love your work dude. Great editing and delivery. Your channel deserves more subs. Keep at it
thanks for taking the time to make a video like this, im sure it took a lot of effort and its super helpful
I have around 500 hours on the game so I did not learn much from this vid, but man I wish I’d seen this before! Great job breaking it down!
Man i have 2200 and i still watch every Video about this game😂

This is an awesome comprehensive guide. You're doing great things for gaming. 🙏
amazing video looking forward to more tips. I love this game but its so hard

Skeleton cleric LMAO. That character definitely gonna hard times after he sees a mirror
i like the fact that he is so confident with the nightmare mummy that he opens the stats menu mid fight

"Not like this" is honestly the best line from The Matrix.
