Can you please remove this useless town event?
Where there are 2 or 3 of the same heros available to pick. Those are ALWAYS level 0. Why the ♥♥♥♥ would I need those as soon as I have a majority of level 4-6 heroes and my rooster giving me max lvl 4 heros? It's just a wasted town event and feels like the game is trolling me...

its just another way to restock characters of a certain class. granted ya you cant bank on it showing up when you need it. there are times you havent ran into a certain class but one time and you maybe like 2 or 3 when it happens in your favor its good. anyways if you base it on the fact that your playing late game then many more "useless" town events need removed like free build town events as your probably done with building also town events like getting extra exp in dungeons as your pretty much maxed level now. the town events are all randomly generated and dropping "useless" town events just because they arent good for you at the moment....this is something where you need to look into your files if you dont want them happening anymore.

I don't understand why you feel so triggered about my comment. What exactly would be so difficulty to remove this event with a simple code line that would check what your lowest hero level is and then not start this event.
Is "do it yourself" now the way to play games? Sorry, but I believe it is just annoying to get such an event I just dismiss on sight so I gave input on it. Feel free to have a different opinion.

So i understand you correctly: You want the developers to change the town event, because YOU think it is useless... lol
I dont want this to be changed.

I also think it's mostly useless since they're always level 0.

Dude, how about you elaborate why you wouldn't want it to be changed? It wouldn't be the first thing that gets rebalanced, so why would you not want it to change for the better? Do you need level 0 heros in mid to late game?
Bomber Aug 27, 2017 @ 6:47am 
As a beginner - yes, i wanted them. Sometimes i just didnt feel some of the character classes, so i dismissed them, even though they were on level 5, just to make space for others and try them out. And because the game will filter dungeons out, as you progressively level up, you will not be able to enter any lower level dungeons, without actually having lower level characters.

i agree, the resolve level should be determined by the average level in your roster or something like that

to distinguish it from the stage coach make it cap at 5 instead of 4

Because it's not a change for the better, and yes I sometimes do need a bunch of one hero in the mid to late game if I decide to run some odd ball party with a ton of one class in it.

Yeah well, sadly for your plan, the town event heroes are level 0 and not level 1.
You still fail to explain why it's a good thing in your opinion. Everytime I check my fully upgraded stage coach, there are at least 5 level 0 heros to choose from.

A change would make it too easy for veterans, and it would be an inconvenience for some beginners.
Especially in Bloodmoon and Stygian, where you are under pressure and have to finish the game in a set limit of weeks, having a town event that would throw high level characters at you at such a high rate, would make it way too easy. You are supposed to work with what you get and not get anything for free. Getting a bunch of level 5 characters from this event would relativize the deaths of your high level heroes and make them trivial.
Now if you lose a level 5 or 6 on Stygian you would be under a lot of pressure, not only because you lost all the money you invested and added another death to your limit, but also because you would have to either gamble for a high level drop or get a low level char and waste your weeks on levelng him up.

What you said gives no input about the topic what so ever. Stop being stuck on the notion that the devs "must" remove the whole thing.
If you can't think of any way how to improve this event, then that's your lack of imagination. I wouldn't miss this event, once my stage coach provides me with plenty of heros of different levels anyway. Are you telling me that you are picking level 0 heros from this event while you are actually facing the Darkest Dungeon?
I don't see how your "points" would change the fact that I never picked a single level 0 hero from this event because my stage coach always provides me with something better..

I would think that the best solution for this would be to add a Week limiter to it, and have those events stop spawning after week X. At the beginning of the game, they can still be quite useful, but as the TC mentioned, once you hit the mid/late game you don't really want level 0s anymore, and aren't picking them up from the caravan either(usually)..

If they stopped spawning after week 30 or so, I'd be okay with that.

That's what I would like.

Come on, man, check your reading comprehension. I already explained this once. If you are building odd ball parties that require a ton of one type of class and you haven't been getting enough of those classes then this event can supply you with the heroes you need. For instance if you decide to run a 4 hound master party and don't have enough hound masters. It doesn't really matter if they are level 0. I mean if you are truly near the end of the game you can take a level 0 to max level in like 6 missions.

That's like 1-2 hours of work...would it really bother you if the game would supply more means of reducing the game spend grinding?
