Once had a harvest child fight where my man at arms lost 75% of his total hp because he got hit by hunger every single turn, including blinds on meats, some dodges, etc. Saddest baby fight ever.

Sometimes forgetting to eat breakfast just ruins your day.

That's the worst lol

[@RolandTheMighty]

Ah the Foetor, the place where enemies lick each other (respectfully and with consent of course).

[@HexFemboy]

Thanks for the great content as always, man! I got frustrated with DD2 a while back, quitting around Act 3 - when I decided to come back to the game, I immediately came to your channel because you make the best DD2 content, bar none.

[@ShuffleFM]

Thank you :)

[@THEREALSPARTAN]

You missed the point that kitchen knives is great with the blight trophy since it both gives enemies blight and gives you chances to resist blights.

[@ShuffleFM]

True!

[@PenumbraDev]

This setup on Flag and PD is nuts.

[@KiallVunMyeret]

Even though i already knew most of this stuff, there is something very relaxing listening to a guide. Love these kinds of video's

[@level100derp7]

Red Hook should add a region of buff women but instead of attacking you they just give out hugs and kisses

[@ExtremeMan10]

Give it one or two more years, modders will have you covered.

[@BNik92]

What you're looking for is the mod Black Reliquary for DD 1

[@level100derp7]

@@BNik92 No they attack you I just want hugs and kisses Also the proportions on most of them is too much for me

​@level100derp7 what are you talking about?

[@lucasfisher82]

I love your guides (I listen to them all the time until my weekend lol) but I want to point out that in your advice on tackling the Harvest Child there was unfortunately no mention (i could be wrong of course) that he gets 2 actions a turn which is HUGE: I've died because I thought bringing only 1 or 2 heros with movement or trap tokens would be ok and then didn't realize this baby can schmove it to the front very easily with 2 turns a round. Your guide is still great to listen too I learned new things, but I think if players want to mitigate the bs of their movement or traps being resisted and then eating a maws of life hit we need to know that the baby can move twice. Bringing more mitigation than just a leper and occultist with bash and daemons pull respectively is, to me anyway, highly recommended

[@ShuffleFM]

Good catch!

[@hobbithubby5076]

Been waiting for this guide! Thanks for continuing this series.

[@ExtremeMan10]

Foetor is basically Weald on steroids. Lots of blight, tons of diseases, enemies that aint dangerous damage wise but get strong alot the more the fight drags on. Also that cart eneny? Ye that thing can rot in hell. Edit: By damage wise I meant how they arent able to decimate your team 1-3 rounds as spiders, Fisherfolk or battalion.

[@blackomega34]

I feel like weald is full of giganasty specialized enemies but foetor is full of easy all arounder enemies that any team can deal with a bunch of ways.

[@dylanlyos5492]

dd2 is so freaking good I'm so happy it exists

[@carlosiredaelli2531]

Hi Shuffle I just wanted to tell you that 5 minutes ago I managed to do my first grand slam thanks to your video gide from a month ago. 1 Man at arms, Vanguard (seargent on act 2). 2 Occultist, Ritualist. 3 Highway man, Sharpshot. 4 Plague doctor, alchemist. Thank you so much for your guides they helped me to get better at the game and achieve this first try. Have a nice day bud. Keep pumping those nice videos.

[@ShuffleFM]

Amazing job! Glad the content helped :)

[@harmlessgames]

Always appreciate the guides Shuffle!

[@joadams8022]

Funnily enough, I hated the Weald but quite enjoy a Foetor run, used to regularly farm it first region for the health trophy before it was patched. Usually deal with most encounters in 1-2 turns, even when running PD+Flag teams. No particular skill or tactics, just lucky with the RNG.

[@caleb1]

Excellent video as always good sir!

[@ultraginge1990]

Awesome guide buddy ❤

[@dylanboczar999]

Gladd to see new guides coming out, just in time for console release :)

[@danielprice4163]

I just went through a another full playthrough of all 5 acts and did not go to this place ONCE. Idk if it’s just me but besides the area boss this is the most dangerous and annoying area with all the diseases and stress 🤣

[@modernwarhero8447]

Shuffle! Now that the game has been on console and there have been many changes to hero balances in the past year, please make many guides 🙏🏻. You were the biggest help for me learning dd1. A good example of what im talking about is that MAA is a starting charcter console players will use. He has no good representation. Any videos are about his op vanguard a year ago and MAA is drastically different now. Us vanguard tree seems bad, but admittedly is hard to use.

[@ShuffleFM]

Working on it :)

[@SovietSnake89]

Foetor is the most unbalanced Region in the game Heals+Regen? Check. High Dmg? Check. Huge DOT? Check+ ( Butcher, Maid, Lady do 4 Blight and 4 Bleed). Stress? Check. Movement skills? Better than the Shroud ( check the wiki)

[@philipdrainville3592]

Foetor is haaaaard only region i haven't mastered yet the constant need to deal with blight and position shuffling makes it the worst region imo

[@MaxxDW]

This was such a good video man. I just finished my first grand slam and I did it in combination with 4 other achiements, a couple related to crusader and highway man. I'm trying to do the 3 lairs in 1 run achievement now and maybe combine it with full bad relationships when entering the mountain. Do you have any tips for getting either achievement and particularly any advice on how to properly deal with the dreaming general? I find him to be the toughest boss and the one that gives me trouble most often.

[@ShuffleFM]

Nice job on the achievements. For the 3 lairs in 1 run, shroud is off limits in region 1. The rest comes down to items you can get, paths, and if BH is available since he almost solos a region 1 boss. For the clash, I don't have it yet either. I'd probably spam pass on everyone at the last cultist node if there's a cherub left. Need some heals to survive that though For general you need 3 people that can hit rank 4, or combat items that you can throw at the root. Just hit it twice a turn. You can do it with 2 people but the more the better tbh. Occultist, PD, deadeye GR, and sharpshot HWM can cleave it too. Banneret crusader is another

[@brandonwoodhouse358]

I'm a simple man. ShuffleFM uploads, I drop a like

[@thebronyhoodpony5627]

Lore wise I wonder if part of the " flesh " from dd1 escaped the warrens they all look like a variation of it

[@shodahollow4021]

Hey bro, good video!

[@hihosilver1234]

Beat the little idiot first try, thanks for the help, i was well prepared, tho funnily enough i had to pull the baby to the front so i could whoop it with my leper and helion.

[@BunnyWing81]

I got lucky. I used: Basic Grave dead eye in rank 4 Basic Jester virtuoso rank 3 Full Crusader templar rank 2 2 story Vestal chaplain rank 1 .... The jester goes first and set up my crusader and basically because of those two i was able to only eat twice. I didnt have reliable healing so i just attacked the boss full tilt. So lucky.

Worst region in the game

[@yungbushwookie6832]

The shroud?

[@Д.К-ж8ф]

@@yungbushwookie6832 the shroud comes in very close second worst But the fact that some enemies can eat corpses on the same turn they appear and then hit you with bs moves and blight, and the existance of lady win it over for me

[@seiferzm1046]

Shout out to this man still creating DD2 content when Redhook is barely doing or releasing anything for this game

[@throwawaylmao7474]

The game was just released on consoles and is scheduled for a DLC and major new mode this year. So I will say Red Hook is still very much actively working on DD2.

[@klutzy115]

I’m sorry what? This game is still actively being tuned, updated, and added to. 💀

[@ShuffleFM]

They're not done yet. We will have to see what 2025 looks like
