Week 68 & 69: Mod Showcase

[h3]”Steel yourself and remember: there can be no bravery without madness”[/h3]

The Sepulchre, Resurrected by Cryptix

A holy spirit trapped in runebound armor, or a mad wraith driven to consume souls? Only the ancestor knows the truth, and he's not talking. Nevertheless, armed with a Hand crafted harvester scythe and the powers of death itself, the Sepulchre seeks to purify its soul and release itself from its binding by collecting the souls of 70 upon 70 undead, trapped by eldritch machinations and forced to obey the whims of wicked men. The Sepulchre seeks to earn its penance, or die trying.

The Saw Hunter by Crispy, Boldas

"Transcend the hunt..."

The Saw Hunter is a new hero class inspired by the protagonist of Bloodborne, The Hunter. The Hunter wears a gray duster coat with a black bandana covering their face. Their weapons of choice are the Saw Cleaver and the Hunter's Pistol. At some point in their life, the Saw Hunter became afflicted with an unspecified disease, leading them to a town called Yharnam in search of a cure. In spite of their mysterious illness, the Saw Hunter is in fact much stronger and faster than average humans. They possess the strength and agility of a fearsome beast while resisting the call of blood-drunkenness through great force of will.

The Madman by Mokibo, Ooh ah, Sasiji, SplendidSausage

"Once a madman is now a desperate man by any means necessary, even if it means becoming allies with his past foes."

A debuff/status effect class. Physical moves Shove and Headbutt are for pushing away enemies mainly.

The Legion by Cryptix, NBB, SplendidSausage

The Legion is a survivor of the past atrocities committed by the denizens of the Darkest Dungeon, having lived through the fall of his Empire through the dark sorceries of a previous incarnation of the Necromancer. With the lifeforce of his former legionnaires and comrades now bound eternally to him in the form of immortal wraiths and revenants, the Legion uses all the strength, cunning, and arrogance of an immortal to strike back against the beings that cursed him to eternal suffering.

Week 67: Mod Showcase

[h3]”Death waits for the slightest lapse in concentration.”[/h3]

The Cleric Errant: Leper by Badger, Ooh Ah, Cat

The Cleric Errant is a durable frontliner who is adept at healing and buffing his allies.

Being able to buff allies while hurting enemies alongside their wide range of support skills make them a valuable asset to any party.

Levantine Invasion: by Alex_Anitos, mayatomr, Sporozowen, NBB, Anonymous_Koala, Seal, MetalGy, Zap, S-Purple , Shay, Rehtaelle, Snorlaxxo, Sasiji, Cryptix , MoonKanin, Baybot, Krekkov, Kristjan, Miraclebutt, OuroborosArt

The Levantine Invasion is a short Vvulf-style Hamlet invasion mod that takes place over a single quest involving the Levantines, a faction from the upcoming Black Reliquary Overhaul.

After week 50, and once the player has at least four level 6 heroes, there is a chance that the Hamlet will be assaulted by a Levantine battalion which needs to be repelled. This task force from the distant east is lead by a Janissary commander, who must be eliminated to disperse the remaining Levantine infantry. Much like Wolves at the Door, ignoring this assault will result in the hamlet sustaining damage to its buildings, and retreat leaves a random hero behind.

Week 66: Mod Showcase

[h3]”The wounds of war can be healed, but never hidden.”[/h3]

Mafe Vanilla Refactor: Leper by Mafe

After a long time, here I am again. This time, with a rework to our undying king, the Leper.
Core points:
-Leprosy: Attached to him, this unique Evolutive Disease will follow Leper everywhere he goes. If not properly treated, this Disease will turn Lethal, but features 2 very powerful endgame evolutions that you can trigger (If you find how).
-A revisited skillset.
-A new unique Secret item.
-New barks based on his poetic side, tied to his Disease.
-And a lot of other hidden features!

The Courtesan: Full Class Conversion by by Roderick

The runner-up in the voting, the Courtesan at last has arrived at the Hamlet! This backline support specializes in keeping her allies alive and debuffing foes whilst in human form. But when one needs damage rather than healing, she can transform into a potent backline, laying waste to enemies with short, but highly potent DoT.

Week 65: Mod Showcase

[h3]”Tortured and reclusive... this man is more dangerous than he seems...”[/h3]

Mr Pepper’s Abomination Rework by Mr.Pepper

The main objective of this rework is to push Abomination to alternate between his forms depending on the fight, even rewarding transforming mid combat. Human form is focused around utility with a stun, pull and stress heal while Beast has damage, but also brings counters to many situations (shuffle, stealth, mark, stun...). The days of transforming Abomination for a single skill are over. However once transformed Abomination can't return to his human form till the combat ends, forcing the player to play aggressively if he doesn't want Abomination to become afflicted.

The Choir Hunter by MoonKanin, Rehtael, Shay

"A wandering sister in search of knowledge."

Based on the Choir Hunter from Bloodborne, the Choir Hunter can be used to torment enemies or to keep your allies fighting. Having the abilities to inflict bleed and stun while being able to clear enemy stun in return for massive damage and simultaneously heal allies makes them a strong addition to any party.

Darkest Dungeon is coming to Xbox Game Pass For PC next week


Microsoft have announced the next handful of games coming to Xbox Game Pass For PC, and one of my absolute faves is on the list. The gloomy turn-based roguelike Darkest Dungeon will be available on the subscription service on June 10th; an excellent chance for players who might've missed it to give it a go before the sequel launches later this year. On June 8th, the raccoon detective game Backbone is hitting the service too.
