…Is what I would say if the current roster of champions was up for the task. It was time to fight a champion level boss! The ultimate form of swine royalty, the Swine God (and his liege Wilbur) had arrived. Whatever.īut the good (?) news was that a champion boss had wandered into the Warrens. An additional reward for doing the mission was that the medical ward became free, and I wish I looked at the rewards properly before doing the mission because I gave some of the senior adventurers expensive health care beforehand. Poignant didn’t even get to find cool stuff for all her troubles because most of the things she came across were empty crates, so the team didn’t even bring back a bunch of loot. Unfortunately! The mission was very boring. Poignant teetered on the brink of becoming the Joker because spiders combo’d and criticaled her, but she came out alright. Now, Mal and Poignant were both still kinda fucked up from when I first brought them out because I kinda forgot to stress heal them, but I was sure things wound be fine. And well, since I was hurting for money, I figured I should bring Poignant the Antiquarian around. Ponty the Man-At-Arms was leading a gang again, with Mal the Arbalest shooting from the back next to Tree the Occultist. While the experts rested for the future, a gang of rookies set out. To do that, a simple basic mission into the Warrens would do the trick at luring out a champion boss there.

Going back into the game, I set out with one important goal: defeat at least one Champion boss.

Though the Shrieker wasn’t defeated, nobody died, which is a big accomplishment to me. Where we last left off, we did a bunch of champion missions, including getting a rematch with the Shrieker. New year, new me, new trip with Darkest Dungeon.
