The Sprawl, Librarian, and You | Darkest Dungeon 2 Guide
Рет қаралды 33,910
Күн бұрынIn this guide I'll go over the Fanatic faction that is found in the Sprawl and explain how to beat them. Included in this will be a tutorial on Librarian, with tips and mechanics explanations to beat him even using the starter team. Next region guide will likely be the Tangle since new players will only have access to those 2 regions first.

I remember one of my first fights against the Librarian used a team of Plague Doctor/Jester/Grave Robber/Flagellant. I had already categorized the heroes, I'm sure he died admiring their positioning.

In the recent poll about whether you should focus on hero or enemy guides, I voted for hero guides. With this video, I realise that I actually needed enemy guides more, because I had absolutely no clue about the whole ignite mechanic that pretty much every sprawl enemy interacts with. I also didn't know how the categorise move worked and am glad that I do now. Seeing how much I learned about the enemies in the sprawl, I think the other regions will also very much be worthwhile. Something I was missing here however, is a mention of the boss trophy and perhaps even going over the region specific trinkets.

A very good guide! The two things I feel that could help is a "Why do you want to come here?" section and "What to equip," setion. Talk about what comps may want the boss trophies, what trinkets you can get out of here especially useful if you are able to give examples of early trinkets we may have unlocked vs late unlocks. The other section could be about what kind of combat items you would want in general or for specific fights. Like I saw someone put on things like Caltrops for the dreaming general for his vine, and I'd have never thought about that.

You forgot to mention Vestal's Illuminate+ which removes dodge and prevents the enemy from gaining it back for a while. That or Tracking Shot+ are incredibly useful against Librarian, especially if you rely on heavy hits like Burning Stars or Chop that suffer more from dodge than DoTs.

Hellion is really fantastic when fighting Librarian as well. Iron Swan hits the back rank, while Toe-to-toe can both taunt Librarian's attacks while locking her into the front rank which minimizes the impact of Categorize. If the Librarian actually makes it to rank 2, Hellion will likely have a Howling End ready to greet him, taking down his hp in a sizable chunk.

I have discovered if you land the killing blow on a stack of books, he doesn’t get a free burning bright for destroying them. While this quickens the pace of the fight, it does mitigate damage and stress early in the fight when not all of your heroes can hit rank 4 or 3. Haven’t had issues doing this with most short range teams and seldom lose against him.

Is there a priority ranking for enemies in Sprawl? Feels like it'd be nice to have it if so. Also timestamp: Whipper - 1:40 Flayer - 2:42 Sacrificial - 3:45 Shaman - 4:45 Immolatist/Her lady ship - 5:56 Pit Fighter - 7:42 Librarian (Lair boss) - 8:43
@vumerion5481 Жыл бұрын
I do : (high priority first) -Immolationnist/her lady ship (because buffs, healing ability and raw damages) -shaman and flayer (because annoying as fuk when ignited) -sacrificial (because by this time, they usually are in rank 2, but i prioritize them before shaman and flayer if i didn't had the opportunity to soften them with cleaves like plague grenades) -whipper and pit fighter (dangerous, but less dangerous than the rest)

Good guide, I liked the format, thanks! I'm wondering if you have suggestions for good frontliners for the Librarian fight. My fights vs him have sometimes devolved to someone like PD spamming Plague Grenade while my front line kinda just doesn't do anything. Which front line characters will actually do useful things?
@ShuffleFM Жыл бұрын
Hellion, flagellant, and man at arms all have useful things for that fight. Hardest one to use is leper who essentially soaks up attacks at the start using withstand. Once the first book stack is gone he can purge the next one so he's in chop range. That's all best case scenario though, your experience with ranged units carrying the weight is pretty much what it is lol
@Aritamoo Жыл бұрын
@@ShuffleFM If I'm going with the Leper, I usually spam Intimidate until the Librarian is in the range of Chop (or Break, if he's a Monarch). It prevents the ranged damage dealers from being blinded and/or meeting their creator because of burn, and Leper usually is blinded anyway. He can always remove blind tokens using Reflection, when it's chopping time.

I was able to defeat the Librarian just as the last book was destroyed 😅 I had a Flagellant, Hellion, Occultist, and Plague doc, they put out so much multi target damage they destroyed the books really quickly but I was able to stack a lot of blight on the Librarian to kill him just in time. I also realized that my party was already alphabetical so they didn’t get shuffled! Good party for this boss but risky to destroy the books so fast

Librarian is generally the lair boss I prefer to fight since they seem to pose the least of a threat in my eyes. There is pretty much a timer where I don't need to worry about my own team's well-being, where I can just use all my attacks on the boss. If I'm not mistaken, it's the only lair boss that can't prevent a hero from taking their regular action.

The sprawl is easily the hardest region. Way too many enemies have DOT, and their damage potential is insane. On the first round of an encounter, an immolatist ignited a shaman giving him a +50% damage token, allowing him to crit for 30 and add 2 burn on my occultist. It was immediately the occultist's turn next, and he proceeded to die to the burn DOT before I could remove it.

Slight correction: when Librarian ignites his turns per round actually go to 2 per turn, so after the first round he'll only use it twice a turn. Little solace, it'll still wipe the crap out of you, but at least it's not thrice a turn.
