Losing in Shieldbreaker's Flashback

[What The Sigmar?]

Hey all, I took a look at the flashback json file in shieldbreaker's raid folder, and found some interesting details.

From the looks of it, if the shieldbreaker reaches death's door in the flashback you fail and suffer a huge stress penalty but no risks of permadeath for your heroes. I would test this out, but don't want to spend the time or sacrifice my beloved heroes in finding out.

Can anyone who's failed the nightmares testify to what happens? Do you get a huge stress penalty or simply ded by snek?


What I'm talking about:

"required_heroes_starting_min_health_percent": 0.1,
"failures": [
{
"target_type": "required_hero",
"type": "deaths_door"
...
{
"is_on_complete": true,
"target_type": "required_hero",
"type": "max_stress",
"string_data": "",
"number_data": 90.0
},
{
"is_on_complete": true,
"target_type": "not_required_hero",
"type": "max_stress",
"string_data": "",
"number_data": 75.0

i don't have the DLC- do the snakes only target the shieldbreaker then?

No, they'll target other heroes as well, though in my experience they seem to target her more often.

The nightmare is still very dangerous. I got kicked out of the nightmare at very low HP and two guys with massive bleed and blight.

Not tried losing in a nightmare, but I did notice that every shieldbreaker in your party will be gaining 23 stress per battle turn (at least it was for me). So you want to win the nightmare battle as soon as possible really.

I've failed at the nightmare and it wasn't ded by snek. I don't think you can die in it, it just gimps your mission so you can't complete it afterwords because too much stress. Also I thought I'd be smart and bring Laudanum for shieldbreaker to drink during the dream and it doesn't do anything.

That's what I figured, thanks for clearing that up. Good to know that camping with shieldbreaker will never be a death sentence.

I lost the nightmare because my shieldbreaker got to death's door by blight, bleed and stress. I cured the blight and bleed, but her stress is now at 200/200 ... she didn't get a heartattack because it just ended the nightmare. But now I'm not sure if this is a bugg or what is happening.
I did notice that all hero's have a +15% Stress debuff with the (Quest) as reason so I think this is because of failing to defeat the nightmare. For the shieldbreaker the debuff is +33% Stress (Quest) and -5 ACC (Quest).

Update:
I disarmed a trap with the shieldbreaker which reduced the stress under 200. Then when she got stress again, she got a heartattack, so it probably was a little bugg.
