The Best Team Compositions in Darkest Dungeon 2

Since Darkest Dungeon 2 is a turn-based RPG, it’s important to know every strategy that you can possibly use. In this blog I will talk about the best team compositions for each character class and what their strengths are.

Darkest Dungeon 2 is a dungeon crawler RPG video game developed by Red Hook Studios and published by Humble Bundle. It was released on January 25, 2018 for Microsoft Windows, macOS and Linux.

The Best Team Compositions in Darkest Dungeon 2

At every point, Darkest Dungeon 2 delights in presenting players with tough choices. Every playthrough begins with the option of how to create your group, and as you proceed through unlocks, the choices get more challenging.

Concepts

When you choose a character, you will be given two random traits: one good and one bad. These characteristics will, more often than not, determine your party’s load-out. A bad negative feature may render a character entirely useless, whilst a good boost can make someone almost invincible. While some party configurations are more powerful than others, players should expect inferior runs due to RNG and should not be hesitant to try new things. Keep in mind that these runs might still lead to a deluge of unlocks for future runs. A restart is not required if the party composition is unsatisfactory.

Second, because to a fighting turn restriction of five at obstacles, Darkest Dungeon 2 emphasizes maximum damage more frequently than not at this period. Players will get nothing but wounds and stress if they do not finish a combat within five rounds. To get the most out of each run, you need to be able to target individual opponents and move the enemy team about.

Finally, each character has six more talents that may be unlocked by running through Reflection nodes. Because the unlock sequence of the talents is randomized, it will take a long time to unlock every skill for each character. Players may personalize how each character functions to better fit inside a certain party composition by giving them a maximum of eleven talents — with only five usable at any one moment.

Early-Game

Players that are just starting out should focus on the Plague Doctor and the Man-at-Arms, since both are viable throughout the game. Players will be able to unlock the Hellion Boudica after they achieve level three. As a powerful damage provider, players should soon replace the Grave Robber and invest in the Hellion’s skill tree. Boudica is a playable character throughout the game and is often referred to be one of the most powerful.

On low-HP foes, we’ll employ the Plague Doctor’s DoT with Noxious Blast, enabling it to ultimately proc a deathblow while the rest of the group concentrates on other enemies. Keep a lye pouch on ready to clear enemy bodies off the line, enabling your heavy hitters to confront live adversaries on a regular basis. When Barristan has to be healed, Boudica’s Toe-to-Toe ability enables her to assume the forefront. He can utilize Hold the Line to take a stride forward once he’s ready again.

Late-Game

All characters are unlocked whenever a player reaches level 15, with the Occultist being the last to be unlocked. All nine characters have a firm position in the lineup at this time, and players are comfortable with their duties.

Note that the options are given in decreasing order of preference.

the first position

The frontline, or first position, must be able to withstand huge quantities of damage without breaking down. Baldwin’s capacity to heal himself and erase negative tokens allows him to perform effectively on the frontlines; nevertheless, his constant self-blinding causes him to be unable to conduct battles with a restricted number of rounds on occasion.

Baldwin, the Leper

2nd place

A damage-dealing position with the potential to change to support if the rest of the group hits hard enough. Boudica is unlocked at level 3; make advantage of her as soon as possible.

Bonnie the Runaway is unlocked at level 6, and she has a unique take on the second position, serving as a front-line support. Her ability to take away adversaries’ stealth, as well as her own stealth and two DoT skills, making her an intriguing addition to any team.

Position three

Ranged damage is preferred, and the Occultist’s ability to remove corpses, drag adversaries out of position, and bombard the backline, where enemy support like to hide, is tough to match. To reduce damage, make sure you’re weakening any enemies with a damage-increase token.

The Grave Robber and Jester (both unlocked at level 9) are sufficient third-position members to replace the Highwayman, and it’s recommended to at least try out the other characters for flavor and substance. The Jester is noteworthy for his ability to reduce the group’s stress levels and constant arguing by moving roles within the party, just as he did in the first Darkest Dungeon.

4th place

The fourth position keeps active by dictating the flow of battle and keeping everyone’s demands in mind, whether bolstering the party or throwing heals. Due to her three heals every battle, as well as buffs and DoTs, the Plague Doctor is an obvious option.
