Eh, I feel it was more theme than balance. And that theming made them bad, balance wise.

Down at the bottom of the ocean. Beneath tons of brine which would crush you down. Not into broken and splintered flesh, but into thin soup. Into just more of the sea water. Where things live that aren't so different from you, but you will never live to touch them and they will never live to touch you.

Bobs? That’s what we’re calling abominations now?

In that case, why don’t we call Vestals Vesties, Crusaders Crews, and so on?

How is it theme to prevent holies from going out with bobs, whereas they were perfectly fine with hellion, occultists, and antiquarians?

Because the Abomination is an actual Abomination?

They even had a quip when you tried to put them together, something along the lines of "I ain't going nowhere with that THING"

"I will not serve with this.... Creature." - Very religious people, 2015/11/30

I don't understand why the religious heroes would have a problem with Antiquarians or Hellions. They may not share the religion, but perhaps they may see a chance to convert or are otherwise neutral.

Now, it is a good question as to why they tolerate the Occultist, since the Occultist is the only hero who has the dubious honor of being the only (vanilla) hero able to harm their teammates when they're not afflicted.

OMG why would you literally make a reskin of a unique preorder character for your game, then release the preorder without modding it?

A shame too since muskets could easily be a neat 'hit all the things for graze damage and debuffs' character.  OR, make the crossbowgirl a damn tank-buster, giving her more prot-reducing.

dumb.  lame.  kind of nonsense.  why?

Weird. You can try asking them about it, they seem fairly responsive to stuff. At least in the past they were.

Thread on the steam forum about it. Could be related to languages, dunno. Guess I'll have to play without a full compliment of WTF broken cheesy backer trinkets for now. :P

edit

After one of many restarts it just started acting normal again. *shrug*

I've been fiddling with a lot of the Farmstead and I think after a few dozen hours I can safely say if you want to progress anywhere, you basically need a Jester and a Vestal.

It's not really possible to go very far without those two. This is because of the obscene amount of stress damage, which will easily overwhelm any other potential stress heal other than a fully specced Jester in stress heal. Then there's the neverending damage. You could theoretically use something like Occultist for the heal, but it's really unreliable. Not to mention all the AOE damage, making Vestal kinda important... though if you were feeling baller you could probably skip it.

Other than those two you just need two DPS. I do Grave Robber and Highwayman and it seems to work. Kills hundreds before I get bored.

I tried so many other combos but it really comes down to stress heal and normal heal. If you lack either, you will just lose to the inevitable attrition. But when you have both it becomes a cakewalk.

A sequel so clearly in view...or is it merely a trick of the light?
