The Disgraced Knight Boss
Unleash the Disgraced Knight: A New Challenge for Darkest Dungeon
Prepare your roster for a formidable new foe! A shadowy invader has descended upon our land, and only the bravest heroes can hope to defeat him and send him back to whence he came. This mod introduces a challenging new mini-boss, the Disgraced Knight, alongside a unique consumable that can influence your encounters.
The Invader’s Arrival
The Disgraced Knight is not a foe you’ll stumble upon by chance. He lies in wait, seeking out those marked by a peculiar affliction. This imposing adversary comes equipped with a set of five unique Invader’s Trinkets, offering powerful boons to those who manage to defeat him. Furthermore, victory yields a precious drop: the Divine Blessing, a reward befitting only the most skilled adventurers.
Strategic Encounters
This mod adds a strategic layer to your expeditions. The Disgraced Knight will ambush parties that bear the “Host of Fire” trait, initiating a perilous confrontation at the start of a mission. You can even proactively seek out this challenge, allowing you to prepare your heroes accordingly. The chance of an encounter varies with the game’s difficulty, offering a 33%, 40%, or 50% probability respectively.
The Ember Item
To aid in attracting or preparing for this encounter, a new shop item, Ember, has been introduced. Using Ember on a hero will bestow upon them the “Host of Fire” trait, potentially drawing the Disgraced Knight’s attention. This allows for a more controlled approach to facing this new threat. Be warned, heroes with the “Host of Fire” trait are more likely to become the primary target of the Disgraced Knight’s relentless assault.
