SakiSakiSakiSakiSaki Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Guide says that enabling the DLCs from the start can add unnecessary complications for a first time playthrough. So at what point should I start them? Are they available to do post-game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acasser Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 I never played anything past beating the final boss, so I have absolutely no clue if there even is post-game. Let alone what is or is not available during that phase if it exists. As for enabling the DLCs? I'd wait until you have a good grasp of the game and its' mechanics. I'd probably also wait until I had a decent cadre of higher-level heroes and a fairly well-developed town, because the DLC quests and the boss battles aren't easy. This especially goes for the Crimson Court which adds some very annoying additional mechanics on top of everything else you have to cope with. Furthermore, if you're following the guide, I'd only enable the DLCs during the lower difficulty run (and not add it at all when playing on Stygian / Darkest).

MandA60VISE Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 You can pick and choose which parts of the DLC to add. I'd go ahead and activate everything and just avoid the Crimson Court until late into your play through. The buildings are extremely beneficial but expensive. Be careful with the shieldbreaker because while she's very powerful if used well there's a chance for a fight during camp with her in the party.

Do you mean a fight against her? Or do you mean a fight will happen in the camp if I have her in my party? On everything besides Stygian there's a post-game after beating the darkest dungeon. Stygian simply has a time limit is why it doesn't. I'd suggest doing Crimson Court after the third or fourth (the last one) successful darkest dungeon voyage. It has some good rewards that could help but the base game is perfectly manageable without. If you never start it then all of the additional nuisances it introduces won't take effect. As for the shieldbreaker it's a chance to have a fight against NPC monsters if she's in the party during camp. It's part of her character's story. It does eventually stop when you beat enough of the battles and you could grind the easier missions or wait to camp until near the end of the mission to do so.

chocvanstrawb Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Just to confirm, playing on the easiest (radiant) difficulty doesn't prevent you from earning any DLC trophies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very late to answer this, but you can earn DLC trophies on Radiant difficulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GardenOfSouls Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Court DLC can be started and done anytime. Second DLC adds a New Boss in randon encounters. New buildings and accs the DLC add are good aditions to the arsenal, but not necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
