In many instances, self only buffs are way too situationally useful and it's simply better to do an attack than use them. While they're at it, change most of his self buffs and work them into other more useful utility abilities. Either that or transfer his bleeds/blights to the enemy he hits. I think they should change the move and make the move 'purge' bleeds/blight from himself while attacking and get bonuses to his attack depending on which one he removes(raw damage for bleeds, accuracy for blight removal). It's a corpse clear that does no damage and doesn't even stun. They do slightly less damage if you change their position and tend to have moves that simultaneously move them back to the front.

Just.why even use this move? Knockback/positional changes for enemies rarely even matter anyways. Position 1 units tend to have the highest move resist, and if you're clearing corpses you're negating the point of knocking him back.and it does no damage. Does no damage, knocks back a position 1 target three spaces, and clears corpses. Pairing this with something like a DODGE and SPD debuff, I feel like this would make him more viable in quite a few situations without taking away from the mentality of his class. Say, he's on the 1st position and a hero from 3rd position is pulled while the skill is active on the Leper, he'll stay there and the 3rd position hero will be brought to the 2nd position instead of the 1st. That's why I was wondering if his +PROT buff couldn't feature a 1 round status that will work something like the Sodden Crew's Anchor attack, basically locking him into place. And the Leper wouldn't exactly fit with these kind of skills, since it has been said that he's a self-sufficient class whose skills focus only him. You'd either be pre-shuffling your group or completely reworking the party to have high move resist to prevent him from being shifted out of his two spots.Ĭlasses like the Houndmaster and Man-at-Arms have some unique skills like the Riposte or the Guard skill. Move skills (on other heroes) and the shuffle ability some mobs possess make the Leper a really risky pick in most of the areas. I have noticed something about the Leper, though, especially his place regarding the Darkest Dungeon area. Nevertheless, I feel like I can still suggest something like this, if only to see what the community thinks. Since the game is out of Early Access I doubt the Leper (or any class for that matter) is going to be receiving any big changes except for the to-be-added Merchant class.
