1 Leper vs the Final Boss

[@borgsie]

To all those who were saying or about to say "this is modded/cheated run": 1. Read the description of the video. He said it took him more than 40 Lepers to succeed. 2. Base Virtue Chance is 25%. The Hero's Ring trinket adds 25% to that. I didn't see his Quirks, but Irrepressible may be in there. That's another 5%. There's no Valiant Spirit Town Event (15% Virtue Chance) so the total chance to get a Virtue is minimum 50%, maximum 55%. 3. Color of Madness DLC added a new mechanic in which Virtuous characters can still get stressed to 200. If they do, the character loses the Virtue and the Stress Meter goes back to 0. 4. When the above happens, a character can get stressed to 100 again and another Virtue check happens. He explained that in some of his tries he gets unlucky and the Leper got afflicted, which is pretty much game over for that try. 5. This is the only run in which the Leper succeeded 3 Virtue Checks out of 40+. Pretty fascinating, and honestly not that hard to achieve. Every time he loses his Virtue and goes to 100 stress again, he has at least 50% chance to get Virtuous. You can easily make that 70% if you lock the quirk Irrepressible and do the dungeon with Valiant Spirit Town Event active. All of you can do this yourselves if you have the patience to grind a lot of Lepers.

[@thickveinysausage3062]

Pinning this so people might hopefully get the answers they're looking for, seeing as how nobody bothers to read the description. Someone in the comments asked for a screenshot of the leper used in the video. This was some time ago, but thankfully I still have the screenshot. (He got perfectionist and steady after killing the final boss, how fitting) cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/453299613903093762/676550881306607617/unknown.png His quirks aren't the best, mainly because I stopped caring after having to level up the 30th leper from lvl 0 to lvl 6 only to have him die in less than a minute. To further clarify the Leper in this video does not have Irrepressible and using Shard Dust to refresh your moves gives you a -10% virtue chance debuff that lasts the entire duration of the quest. So his virtue chance is actually 40%. You can give him a Tentacle Idol to further boost it to 60%, but I didn't have it at the time because I had lost it in a previous failed attempt. Speaking of failed attempts, if you ever wanted to make yourself hate a video game this is the perfect challenge to do it with. As mentioned previously, some of the failed attempts aren't even a minute long because what would happen is they'd get afflicted and get a heart attack all in 3-4 turns. There's no way to outheal the stress if you get afflicted and no way to kill the enemies fast enough to speed through the 1st phase. Secondly, virtues can and will be lost throughout the duration of the fight, especially during phase 2 where the Ancestor can just decide to hide in the back and spam Embrace Futility over and over. Meaning you have to gamble on another resolve check. Not all of the 40 attempts involved virtues, at first I tried builds that focused more on killing the clones faster with Hew, but those attempts would always end the same way, dying to stress and bleeding out. None of what's going on in the video is impossible, nor is it difficult to pull off, it's just slamming your head against a brick wall until it eventually gives. If anyone has any further questions they're free to ask me. Edit: 11/25/2020 An option I wasn't aware of at the time was the ability to stack -stress received buffs from having the character pray in the Abbey. This reduces the amount of stress the leper takes down to ~2-3 and could allow for a more aggressive approach without having to worry about stress piling up. I am planning on remaking this video in the near future. Hopefully the new approach will be more consistent.

As far as battling twisted infracorporeal entities who control matter, and mind to some extent, the leper fighting the heart of darkness is as canon as it can be, since he has nothing to lose, not even his life as it's soon over anyway, not his memories as he's suffered all life long, not his body or form as his flesh is decaying, and his mind cannot be broken, since he "understands that adversity and existence are one and the same".

If I remember correctly, he was a very well loved king, but became afflicted with leprosy. He self exiled to protect his people from the disease.

[@eintorpid9101]

Technically, the main killer of leprosy is that it kills the nerves, allowing people to far more easily wound themselves and not know it. A rat can chew off your pinky toe and if you don't look down you simply wouldn't notice it, which would later lead to untreated infections and bleeding. So really he'd be rotting, but he wouldn't really feel much pain.

I didnt know that if you had a virtue that it would consume at 200 stress

[@ununicorniocon2gbderam787]

it does not actually consume the stress, it takes the virtue instead of having a heart attack

@@ununicorniocon2gbderam787 but after a heart attack doesn't stress go to 170, not 0?

[@amihopes1235]

@@vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv after a heart attack when not being virtuous, yes. But when you are virtuous it basically tanks everything and the stress is resumed(and the hero doesn't go to deaths door). But the virtue is also taken away and once the hero reaches 100 stress there will be another vibe check

[@DuckieMcduck]

This came with the DLC. Previously, if you got a Virtue it would cap stress at 100 and never go above that. Obviously the DLC accompanies some new combat stuff to help offset that.

Once a king, always a king. But honestly, as someone who always uses Leper in my main squad, he is stupidly powerful and is well known to have the best damage output amongst all the vanilla Heroes. He's a force to be had, so when I saw it took 40+ tries, I actually expected it to take LESS tries. People don't give Leper enough credit.

[@nunyabusiness3957]

Leper after making the frontline dissapear in one hit: "What backline?" Jokes aside I love pairing him with a Bounty Hunter to yank those squishy stress casters up into Chop range with Come Hither.

[@hans3519]

Fun fact guy made mod that basicly turns the leper into GOD getting a repost, can heal and destress other party members, damage is jacked after he hit the gym, his repost ability sends him into the front line even at pos 4 going to pos 1, and i think lastly he can tank even more crazy and yea. I think leper with this mod as my cannon did what he normally did but would go as far as fist fighting bears so a family of 3 can get their favorite honey jar back
