I personally had bad experiences with him in warrens and weald.

He is mediocre in Cove without bleed buffs, which means taking up trinket slots for it. He's still good on the bosses there, but getting him there can be a chore. He is terrible in Ruins because it's full of skellies that don't bleed. Originally posted by Anelyn:Flagelant is an odd one, I can't really put my finger on it, sometimes I did use him to great success, but other times he underperforms really badly. I could have ended the fight in 3 rounds top if I went straight for the boss, or if I would have picked 4 scales to bring on the quest. In my current run (week 130 if memory serves) I only lost 1 SB and that because I was greedy to kill every single wood piece at champion Prophet boss fight. But they have a very niche role and outside of marking teams or specific bosses, they aren't really that great. For me is more of a flavor character than the Arbalest. I pretty much only used a Musketeer / Arbalest on a specific nightmare for my SBs were all the enemies start stealthed, but they don't really see much play otherwise. I am not running any tanky trinkets on them nor locking perks for HP (protection is nice because you can get more of it on your own via crits / camping / trinkets), pretty much speed and damage if I run with MAA or Jester, otherwise melee crit on one ancestor trinket and ranged on other one coupled with a general dmg increase.ĭunno about Musketeer, unless you're aiming for a speed run, time really isn't an issue. I am looking at 44+ dodge on them without any external buffs on 75+ torchlight (without the torch upgrades district built yet). Also they have trinkets with max hp / protection, and after finishing their nightmares they get more hp / prot from camping (as a passive buff not use of a camping skill).Īlso they have high dodge and great speed. Keep in mind that when they crit they get Protection. Getting crit isn't really that bad on SBs, sure they are not MAA level, but they can take 1 crit and a normal hit without going to death's door. I pretty much run all champion dungeons including with the event of The Thing with a double SB team and never had any problems, also all bosses were killed by same team.
