The Dreamer

Description
Disclaimer

The Dreamer is a reimagining of the Revelations Knight, with altered art assets and entirely different stats and combat skills. This rework has been made with permission, and full credit goes to the original creators of the mod for allowing this redesign to exist.

The design philosophy of the Dreamer differs significantly from the Revelations Knight. The Dreamer is balanced around the vanilla Darkest Dungeon experience, and was designed to be easy to both use and understand. The current version DOES come with the boss featured in the Revelations Knight, but it is a camping nightmare encounter instead of a roamer.

The Dreamer is NOT compatible with the Revelations Knight, and having both enabled on the same save file is likely to result in crashes and/or bugs.

Localization

The Dreamer is currently available in english, chinese, korean, and russian. Other languages will only have english text (but not blue strings). If you would like to translate, message me on steam as soon as possible!

Thanks to 54NBB for the chinese translation!

Introduction

"Dreams...figments of our imagination. Or are they?"

The Dreamer is a brand new class mod for Darkest Dungeon with fully custom sounds, art, and animations! A mysterious knight with a terrible secret, the Dreamer has come to the Hamlet in the name of redemption, looking to absolve herself of crimes long forgotten. But what else stalks in her shadow?

Combat Skills

The Dreamer is a mode based hero, with two forms: Dreaming, and Lucid. Dreaming is her default human form, where she is a protective hero with good supportive options but poor DMG and little ability to hit the back ranks. Lucid is her monstrous form, which has very high DMG vs any rank and strong mark synergy, along with a riposte that activates when below 25% HP. Switching between modes can be done by using her custom move skill.










Camping Skills






Additional Information
  • The Dreamer is religious.
  • The Dreamer comes with a full set of regular, CC, and CoM trinkets, along with some universal trinkets (not heads).
  • If the Dreamer lands a critical hit, she reduces the stress of other heroes by -2. This is in addition to the normal stress healing provided by a crit.
  • The Dreamer does not use any districts, and does not come with a town event.
  • Her canon name is Keller.

Camping Flashback

The Dreamer is haunted by an eldritch abomination which manifests itself at camp. At every camp, the Dreamer has a 50/50 chance to suffer a flashback where a boss must be fought. Only 3 of these flashbacks can occur per campaign, and each one awards a Dreamer specific trinket.

Note that the flashback boss has skills that you, as the player, must select the target of. If you enter this boss and believe you are softlocked - this is not a bug! You need to manually select a hero to be targetted!

Also, the boss is well balanced, even easy for a begginer party. Interesting combat mechanics, and it actually saved my expedition, since put the strees of my already aflicted dreamer to 0 after beating it, wich was actually easy enough for a level 0 team resolve. The dreamer alone quicked his ass badly.

I like those nightmare bosses. More content to beat, more challange to overcome, more darkness and bodies to feed the darkest dungon.

What is the point of 'Sleepwalking' if it wont prevent the ambush?

I just gotta say this works way better than the original mod, aside from some icons i dont like, thats juts nitpicking, peak mod 10/10

I find this to be a really good mod overall. The only problem I have with it is that the Lucid transformation penalty stays between fights and can accumulate if you get a lot of consecutive encounters; ending the debuff at the end of the fight or transforming it into a DMG penalty for lucid upon changing back to Dreamer could be a better way to balance it.

@Marcus,

Yes it is. It’s a nightmare ambush instead of a roamer like in the original mod, and is much less game breaking.

does the boss also rebalanced? I fail multiple expedition due to fighting the boss. It's stupidly over powered.

If anyone can make a skin of 2B for the dreamer, that would be amazing, 2B looks the same as the dreamer, I pray for someone to do it please

i saw the original version and it looked amazing, but that boss made it seem unusable. Cool to see a version that fixes that
