Does he have a canon name?

oh I never thought of that, guess I was being a fool.

Ashen Remains raises target's max hp to bring their current hp percentage lower, allowing effect against low hp targets to trigger sooner.
JP 54464 23 Aug, 2023 @ 6:34pm 
love this class, he works amazing and his trinkets are amazing.
I'm just confused with the "ashen remains"

CoM trinket doesn't show up in trader for some reason

[h1]One of my favorite class mods![/h1]
Amazing work that really matches the look and spirit of the base game. Love it!

I've had a blast pairing him up with all sorts of team combinations and trinkets. Transferring blights, getting blighted on healing, Maledict using Debuff chance, the big heal and aoe of Cull; all of it makes for a really fun dynamic.

Most fun has been pairing him with the Rudiment class mod. BLIGHT FOR EVERYONE!
Lots of close calls where things went too far with the blights and had a nasty 10+ stack because I wasn't paying attention, but it's just that much more satisfying to throw it onto some hapless enemy to melt

@deadrabbit Спасибо огромное. Но есть ошибка. Скил "Объединение" накладывает не только стан, а перекладывает Яд на противника, как написано и в оригинале.
также "Маледикт" накладывает ЯД. описание не точное =(

It's the Apostate.

On the first image, I know the other heroes, just not the one in rank 4, could you tell me so I can have the skeleton krew?

Thanks Badger!

Hi Badger, would you consider making either Sever or Perforate (or both) usable in Rank 3 (and rebalance if necessary.) The reason I ask is because Rank 3 Herald allows for one of the greatest squads every assembled ( see pic: https://imgur.com/a/7gxtNel ). I call them... dun dun dun... "Death March". Given he's a bony fella with a spear, Rank 3 makes more sense for him than the Blackguard or The Forsaken. Having one of those two skills usable in Rank 3 lets him run a Rank 3 kit with Sever/Perforate + Cull + Maledict + Sacrifice.
Badger  [author] 4 Dec, 2022 @ 7:44pm 
I'll consider letting perforate be used in rank 3 in the next update.

fushigi friend 24 May, 2022 @ 4:42pm 
Ive only started DD modding recently, so far this is my favorite class mod. Only complaint is that coalesce and maledict don't give you those "blight" pop ups that usually show up when you inflict blight

Я русифицировал мод ! положить папку 2341439121(пример моего пути): D\steam\steamapps\common\DarkestDungeon\mods\2341439121(эту папку скачать). Ссылка: https://disk.yandex.ru/d/tTDtVmB_zDliHg (папку 2341439121локализовано переименовать стереть слово оставить только цифры). После в меню игры нажать на молот и включить русифицированый мод, а если есть steam версия мода(выключить её)... Удачи...

I made a mistake typing the word fun as funny, sorry for this, hope u dont mind
B9Ler(后排治疗单位) 25 Sep, 2021 @ 5:13am 
@Badger Cool, thanks again:steamthumbsup:
Badger  [author] 25 Sep, 2021 @ 5:10am 
I will check on my save.
B9Ler(后排治疗单位) 25 Sep, 2021 @ 3:21am 
no sound on walking,attacking,even camping skills are silenced, I only changed a bit skill data and add my own localization, than this character completely silenced, Im so confusing.:steamfacepalm:
ZenoSpark 16 Aug, 2021 @ 8:36pm 
Hey, I'm not sure if this has been addressed yet but the sound effect for Coalesce doesn't work sometimes. It only works like, half the time, in certain areas.
Paulio 16 Aug, 2021 @ 2:02pm 
Hello, love the mod so far but theres a slight issue with how the Sacrifice skill is explained. In the description (game itself) it says that it blights the target for 2pt/2rd but then it says that other MONSTERS heal for 2pt/2rd. This at first led me to believe this skill is useless but after trying it out i realised that its not the monsters that get the healing but the player characters.
Donkey_Shlong 23 Jul, 2021 @ 3:23pm 
This mod crash my game on load. I know because i tested every last one of them. It was the only one that did this. Oh well, too bad, looked like a fun character.
Goose 11 Jul, 2021 @ 2:27am 
Sometimes the sounds disappear, not sure what's causing it. Love the mod tho, amazing.
Badger  [author] 18 Jun, 2021 @ 2:09am 
That seems to be a bug. I'll take a look at it.
Uriel 17 Jun, 2021 @ 11:59pm 
What exactly is the point of "Coalesce"? According to the skill description the Herald is supposed to transfer blight from himself and other enemies to the targeted enemy yet instead he seems to transfer it all to himself so he ends up with like 14+ blight stacks at the end of a fight.

Is it a bug? Did I misunderstand what the skill is supposed to do? If so, when exactly do I use it?
FohnJarmery 9 May, 2021 @ 4:09pm 
@Overlordsachi It's just programmed as any healing effect causing it. I actually quite like it, it's fun to dump food on him prior to a big fight and then immediately transfer the blight onto an enemy without needing to worry about blight resistances.
Overlordsachi 28 Apr, 2021 @ 8:38pm 
why does food activate his blight effect? I understand magic and such blighting him, but not food.
Shallchair 15 Apr, 2021 @ 7:16pm 
Definitely have it active. Maybe just really bad RNG. This character and a few other characters aren't appearing for me.
Badger  [author] 15 Apr, 2021 @ 7:07pm 
Are you sure you enabled the mod? Otherwise it could just be bad RNG.
Shallchair 15 Apr, 2021 @ 5:55am 
This character isn't spawning for me. I've practically beat all the darkest dungeon levels already and and yet the character hasn't spawned for me.
Adamastos 3 Apr, 2021 @ 5:25am 
Also getting no sound on attack after closing and relaunching the game once
Azrael 2 Mar, 2021 @ 2:09am 
no sound on attacks
Rev 20 Feb, 2021 @ 3:43am 
no sounds on attacks
Svyatoslav28 18 Feb, 2021 @ 12:40pm 
Vile Benedection cost as much as other common trinkets.Also Leathen Coil seems to be extremely broken:it makes Herald almost uncrittable and adds biggest -stress recieved in the vanilla game, on the other hand downside is quite pathetic and doesn't change that much.

the description of cull in game dosent say that it deals more damage lower health enemies, it only says "if target HP below 50%" and under it is lifesteal. I understood it as, "if the target HP below 50% = lifesteal". overall, liking the class and its playstyle.
Shargares 28 Jan, 2021 @ 9:46am 
Pls can you make a helmet version(my crooked hands and photoshop couldn't do it).
Nights 26 Jan, 2021 @ 10:50am 
Great mod, been looking for a front line tank that has some usage with blight. Aside from the improper text box on the Vile Benedict trinket, he makes for a great puller for some other heroes and already found some good synergies with him.
Moorer 24 Jan, 2021 @ 1:39pm 
Heyy, i love this mod, but I also wanted to report bug with the Vile Benediction item description. In the description there is something after the +30% stun chance which i assume is increased blight damage recieved and that is not displaying correctly. Great mod thank you
Surlyous 24 Jan, 2021 @ 7:10am 
Perforate is a bit strong and needs a damage debuff.
En. Gerger Racc 22 Jan, 2021 @ 6:43pm 
I have the mod, but he won't spawn after many weeks. I know he's in the game, because his trinkets are spawning. But no Herald
Sithis 18 Jan, 2021 @ 9:08pm 
Good mod, keep going!!
Sturm Krahe 18 Jan, 2021 @ 1:21pm 
I like to think he was created by The Apostate from that mod, who is a necromancer ex-vestal. Their powers synergize really well together and I always deploy them together as part of my 'weird occult' themed lineup.
Fruit Man 6 Jan, 2021 @ 4:41pm 
So I really love this mod, he's fun, and I know you cant do anything about the whole "Enemies" line in sacrifice but he died in my lst run because I didnt realize it meant allies. If I had known that was a healing skill my life would still have my boney boi. Good mod though, is fun.

Badger  [author] 5 Jan, 2021 @ 8:56am 
@Svyatoslav28 That's due to another mod overriding the string. There's nothing I can do to fix it really.
thebarth 5 Jan, 2021 @ 8:25am 
Any hope of getting his lore, origin story?
Svyatoslav28 4 Jan, 2021 @ 4:45am 
Description of the "Sacrifice" says other enemies, instead of other allies,changing that will help to clear misunderstood. Good to see another great class from you!
Badger  [author] 4 Jan, 2021 @ 3:43am 
@TrulytheWorst That's fair, I'll consider nerfing his base dmg and Cull's dmg mod in the next patch. Thank you for the feedback.
TrulytheWorst 4 Jan, 2021 @ 12:13am 
His damage range seems a tad too high to me. 7 - 12 at level zero puts him only behind the leper compared to base characters, and Perforate dealing full damage makes him the best at killing back rankers without having to be in a bad position, in addition to it being a pull with a bleed. Also while Cull does have a cooldown, it also has a net 160% damage if it hits all targets along with an execute, and it has straight lifesteal on top of his high damage, so it may as well be a full heal. I don't think his abysmal speed makes up for how strong that is, but I really like the rest of his kit; Maledict is super unique. Sorry for the essay.

Ayyy the Bone Squad! Nice hahah
