They take a certain number of 'respite' points to use, and can only be used once per camp (unless the skill says otherwise). He can inspire greater combat prowess, or raise the group's spirits at the cost of singling out a target for his acrimonious scandalizing.Ĭamping skills are special skills heroes can use while they are camping. The Jester shines in the flickering light of the campfire, bringing his lute and unerring wit to bear against the fears and stress his companions suffer. (All buffs and debuffs last for 3 rounds unless otherwise specified.) Note: New Jesters will always come with the Harvest skill. All who dare to confront the Darkest Dungeon know that it might mean their end, but with the Jester in tow he will make sure that it is at least a heroic end.Ĭombat is a power ballad - a slow build up, and a grand finale! On the offense, the Jester leaps to and fro in a bloody cacophony, positioning himself for a glorious end in the front ranks! Alternatively, he can hang back, delivering chilling melodies and unsettling riffs that terrorize his foes, and give strength to his allies. Beware though, not all find the Jester's antics amusing as mockery and cynicism is only funny until it happens to you. The melodious riffs of his lute will make any party member's mind quiet as he encourages them to strike quickly and precisely like a tiger. Regardless of his position in your party, he is able to dance elegantly around those pesky party shufflers and set up opportunities to single out an enemy and bring about its utter, almost laughable demise.Īs an entertainer, he can make a stressful night of camping turn into a night of merriment and wit. His merry tunes are best in the back row however if he gets shuffled to the front his blades can do serious damage. With his lute he can provide in-battle comfort for his companions, playing songs that inspire greatness or relieve tension. With his oddly shaped blade he can slice the 2nd and 3rd positions of the opposition to ribbons, causing them to bleed out. Armed with a sickle and lute, this maniacal minstrel is a versatile class that has several tricks up his sleeves.

The Jester brings all of these in spades. In the darkest depths of these twisted lands few things are as welcomed as a good laugh, a merry song, and razor sharp blade.
