(All buffs and debuffs last for 3 rounds unless otherwise specified.)Įschewing the company of others, the Flagellant turns his back to the fire, denying himself the comforts of its warmth. "Exhaustion" debuffs (From Exsanguinate and Redeem) cannot be cleared by Medicinal Herbs. Note: New Flagellants will always come with the Punish skill. His full potential is realized only on the brink of madness. The power he draws from martyrdom is as effective as it is unsettling - in one moment he is a fountain of healing renewal, and the next, a conduit of terrible wrath. The Flagellant belongs to an extremist faction within the church, and is generally regarded with a toxic mixture of fear, awe and disgust. In total, if the Flagellant is both at Death's Door and Rapturous, he receives a grand total of: +65% DMG, +7 CRT, +5 SPD, +20% Stun/Bleed/Blight/Debuff resistance, and a -20 DODGE.He will refuse to embark with another Flagellant in the party, as "the burden of suffering cannot be shared.".He also cannot gain any negative Quirks that restrict him to other town activities for Stress Relief unless he interacts with certain curios that will give him them, i.e Moonshine Barrel This will always heal 100 stress, or 90 if "The Town is Abuzz!" Town Event is active. As his name suggests, he will only use the Penance Hall for Stress Relief.Should the Flagellant die, he will stun (125% base) all enemies as his last act, and heal the remaining party members for 10 HP.(He will, however, still obtain debuffs from heart attacks.) Additionally, he will never gain Recovery debuffs. When the Flagellant reaches Death's Door, every other member of the party is healed for 10% of their max HP, and the Flagellant obtains a buff for +5 ACC, +20% DMG, +2 SPD, and +20% Stun, Bleed, Blight, and Debuff Resist.He will also become able to use his emergency heal skills (Redeem and Exsanguinate) if they're enabled during the battle. When the Flagellant falls below 40% HP, he receives a buff for +20% DMG and +7% CRIT.He can never obtain a Virtue, and will always become Rapturous upon reaching 100 stress. While Rapturous, the Flagellant will often randomly attack enemies, other party members, or even himself, among other effects. The only Affliction the Flagellant can receive is Rapturous (unless he is dead in the endless mode in the Farmstead, in which case, he will be Refracted), which gives +25% DMG, +3 SPD, and -20 DODGE.How far are you willing to push him? Because the desire for power can cloud judgement, and sometimes pushing too far can have… dire consequences. And the more the minions of darkness try to end his life, the stronger he becomes, since his strength is at its summit when he himself is at the brink of death… or madness. He converts damage in either powerful healing for his allies, or horrifying punishment for his enemies in the form of insanely powerful bleeding attacks. His power lies within the martyrdom, and it is something that transcends physical laws: every action of violence that lands on his tortured corpus creates not an equal, but a far more potent reaction. He will stand like a wall between his comrades and his foes, with his arms wide open, his body exposed, acting like a magnet for all harm that may come their way. Whereas every sane member of your band of mercenaries aims to minimize wounds and disability by mitigation (armor) or avoidance (dodging), the Flagellant welcomes them. This man is unique among the various classes in the sense that he thrives on the ruin of his mind and body. Again, Adder’s Kiss and Pierce will cover all your bases, and you will have a very effective dancing front-line that will make quick work of The Thing From The Stars.If there was ever such a thing as ‘weaponized suffering’, then the Flagellant would be the term made flesh. If you took a Shieldbreaker in position one, then a SECOND Shieldbreaker can work here too. Both can deal with crystals when needed, both have decent AoE potential, and both can apply bleed. If you don’t have the DLC or your Flagellant is going walkabout, then a Hellion is a great alternative, as is the Highwayman. He is also very self-sufficient thanks to a very powerful self-heal, and he can even mess around with Stress. He deals incredibly high Bleed damage and can apply it across the board without batting an eye. If you have access to The Crimson Court DLC, then the Flagellant is the best choice here. This will apply decent Blight whilst also piercing his Protections during his second phase. A fun alternative would be to take a Shieldbreaker with Pierce and Adder’s Kiss and use her to dance between positions one and two.
