Farmstead team after patch?
Since last patch was released, it's not so easy to reach far in Farmstead anymore. All Bolsters, Revenges, Tracking Shots etc. has been effectively "nerfed" and now they can be used only once per "wave" instead of "battle". So sad...

I personally like the Vestal / Jester / HM / MaA team, but they have some flaws.
Vestal with Sacred Scroll and Ancestor's Scroll (I don't like Junia's head because of its huge stress penalty; and giving the Ancestor's Scroll to her instead of Jester isn't so groundless, cause when she crits with Judgement it heals more stress to her and rest of the team). Her job is of course to heal others and Judging enemies, occasionally stunning.
Jester with Bright Tambourine and Dirge for The Devoured. Spamming Battle Ballad and healing 17 stress per round when using Inspiring Tune. Also Harvest and Slice Off (I don't like Finale cause its debuffs)
Haighwayman with CRIT trinkets such as Ancestor's Pen, Surgical Gloves or Sharpening Sheath. His job is easy: Duelist's Advance -> Point Blank Shot. Massive damage here. For The Sleeper in his first, crystal form, use Pistol Shot. As 4th skill take some melee or Tracking Shot
MaA with some DMG and/or CRIT trinkets such as Legendary Bracer, Surgical Gloves or Ancestor's Pen. Be sure to keep Riposte activated all the time and - depending on situation - defend others, buff crits or crush those carcass crystalls.

Riposte is the most important thing here. Massive damage and stress healing with CRITS. Also MaA's after-crit buff witch is -33% stress is very helpful. (I sometimes get -132% stress xd).

My best score with this team is 212 kills, but Drowned Crew is too overpowered with its self-healing and got drowned me as well ;( Before it, I managed to destroy The Brigand Pounder and The Hag (And Miller and Sleepr as well of course)
High PROT enemies and diseases are the worst in this company (Damnable Ghouls! And theirs Worries disease!). Also when you try for Virtues and mortality check doesn't want you to receive it, it's a really difficult job to get this stress bar down again, cause Jester have to focus on afflicted party member, so he won't use Battle Ballad. Crits get down, stress gets up, afflicted Vestal refuses to heal her companions and someone gets just killed...

So, what party do you find the most effective AFTER patch? I want to hear your opinions (And unlock Ashes to ashes achievment as well :P)
