Because The Miller deals AOE damage, you can even slot in a riposte for some free bonus damage whenever The Miller goes for a swing.Welcome to the official subreddit for the games Darkest Dungeon 1 & 2!ĭarkest Dungeon is available for PC, Mac, Linux, PS4, PSVita, iPad and Nintendo Switch! The Highwayman can attack enemies from every row, he can damage positions one, two, and three with his Area of Effect, and he has multiple options when dishing out a single target, high damage attack. Highwayman - The Highwayman goes in slot two, and that is, once again, because his kit is pure gold from this position in this fight. Both his tanking and his spanking can be enhanced with Trinkets. He can deal massive single damage with his sword, he can whip out his scroll to hit positions one and two (great for dealing with minions and chipping The Miller) and you can even Mark yourself, making him a fantastic tank. His kit has everything you want in this fight. As a wonderful side benefit, providing you haven’t had any surprising deaths with your initial characters, you will have all of these guys from day one, meaning you don’t need to hunt down anyone specific.Ĭrusader - The first position has to go to the Crusader. The Red Hook, The Regulars - whatever you want to call them, this is the layout you want. This party is the most generic party you could ever conceive.

The Miller doesn’t have a particularly large health pool, but when he can top himself up, it becomes a bit more of a nuisance. The worst part about this attack isn’t the damage, however, it’s the self-healing aspect. This is enough to potentially one-shot a backline if he lands a juicy critical.

Once The Miller has lost approximately one-third of his HP, he will unlock a third possible action that deals incredible damage to one character. His phantom associates are mostly there to protect the Miller himself, so you will need to burn through them first if you want to land hits on the big man. Once he has a mate, he will spend his remaining action to do an Area of Effect attack, or buff his summoned companion(s). The Miller activates twice per turn, and he will, in most cases, use one of those turns to summon a friend from the Farmstead. The wrong party, the wrong strategy, and let’s be honest, the wrong RNG, will result in a quick demise. The Miller can and will lay the smackdown on you if you don’t come in prepared.
