Love Struck, Genital Warts, Cooties so she givese teh monsters stds love it

Yeah she seems pretty weak despite cool design and potential. Super squishy, her battle ballad buff unlike Jester's requires her to be upfront which paired with her terrible hp is bad idea, reduced stun resist, albeit thematic is a really bad downside to the buffs.

Her Guard is also pretty bad to use with reducing dodge of the guardian, making him worse at his job (tanking for her). Stun clear is nice i guess.

She can be fine in a bleed team thanks to DOTs being op and stacking nicely but her number alone are also pretty bad. She is a weaker Jester and i'd rather have him on a team than her.

Her riposte, considering her terrible base dmg is rather useless.
Her mark seems to be one of strongest abilities in her arsenal, which is good.
On the prowl is a rather poor utility movement skill. Bonus marked dmg is really neglible since her base dmg is so low.

Denter206 See MrIronJustice's tips below for various strategies. Harlot shines in bleed and mark focused groups. Good hunting.

How do I use her properly? I've just looked at her stats and they... suck? Her damage is abysmal and her buffs are also trivial. She seems kinda bad imo. I didn't play with her though

hey there

Does the harlot have a canonical name?

I think you might have put the opposite bark lines for "Powder my nose" and "Working girl" on one another. At least... that is what it looks like.
small thing, but i wanted to mention it anyway :P

One of my heroes cot the cooties from her.
Havent laughed that hard in a long time.

MrIronJustice thanks for the great play suggestions and analysis. Harlot can synergize with many interesting set-ups, but totally agree mark and bleed groups are the strongest combo for her.

Gimmegames4free Take a look as MrIronJustic setup for a solid foundation[/b]

Tikotitok If i ever get time to play BR, i will do a Harlot and Rescuer patch! it's a fantasy to do list item.

SmashMaster Thank you!

(part 2, due to character limit)

Stats:

I always invest in dodge for defense. With her low HP, protect and +%HP are underwhelming.

Crit is your best choice for offense, as it synergizes well with her bleed-based damage. I'd only prioritize direct bleed chance if taking her into the Cove.

If using her for stress relief, the few trinkets that boost stress heal can be effective.

Speed is really good, including first turn speed. She has many great options early in battle.

Skip the Little Black Book, Love Letters, and Lipstick trinkets.

Some tips incase anyone is interested:

I use her on a team that benefits from marks, bleeds, and could use some stress heal.

I use: Flashing the Goods, Kiss of Death, Hands Off, and Hold me Close.

In any protracted battle, Flashing the Goods works similarly to Jester's Battle Ballad, with a few differences. On shorter/easier battles its not worth spending a turn on.

Kiss of Death is probably of my favorite marks in the game. It marks and lowers the target's accuracy, so it is good to use on an enemy who will be around for a while. And it helps your stress a bit.

Hands Off is your bread and butter attacking move. It does damage (bonus against humans and marked), bleed, knockback, and most importantly riposte. Use this early and often to keep riposte up, especially if in the first position.

Hold me Close is similar to 'Protect Me' plus a moderate stress heal. I use this at the end of a battle to recover

Do there happen to be any plans to eventually make a Black Reliquary version of the Harlot? I miss hoeing it up in the dungeons ;_;

any build or setup guide with this class?

Does it have district?

Awesome mod. Well balanced kit, nice art that fits in the game thematically, and a unique design.

What does Wedding Veil's "Heart of Gold" buff thingy actually do? I thought it would make the skill apply a crit buff, but any target of friendly skills just gets a buff reading "Heart of Gold: +6% Crit" that doesn't seem to do anything.

Also class is great but it's a missed opportunity they aren't forced to only use the brothel and occasionally bring you some gold home.

Maybe even get more diseases.

Lord_Tony_ttv Silk Hiding Steel should slash 2 + 3 at same time, and then move back 1.

what makes Silk Hiding Steel Fan slash target 3 instead of 2?

Are there any plans to make a version of this mod that's compatible with Black Reliquary?

Ok, thanks for confirming my suspicions that it's just random.

V-Zer0 hello. There is no unlock event, if the mod is turned on she will have a chance to appear in the stagecoach. There is also town event to provide one, but she can appear randomly depending on other mods and classes installed. Good hunting!

Ok so, I'm doing a bit in DD run where I name characters after my friends, and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me the criteria for getting the unlock event for the harlot

Thanks for the reply, Dem. I'm just struggling to fit her in a comp where another "bleeder" wouldn't work better. I think my main issue with her is that Hands Off! is pretty mediocre, and a lot of her supports skill don't really seem worthwhile to use to me. She does has unique flair though, so she's worth taking for that.

Hadouken Your Face Her kit depends on the other Heroes usually, but one Rank3 kit for her: Hands Off! Silk Hiding Steel. Kiss of Death. Heart of Gold. Use Silk first and move to 4. Find bleed bonus trinkets to help her shine. Synergy with a Hero who benefits from her mark can work too. Check the Party Name list (above) for some unique parties with her.

I'm really not seeing what value she has. Even in a bleed-group, she doesn't seem to do much damage. What are the skill loadouts people use with her?

Pretty good mod! great visuals, Amazing bleed w/trinkets, and has reposte and a minor stress heal. a nice character that is entertaining to run.

Garrow hello. it varies with party group, but Duchess Van Hoof had some nice tips "If you bring another character that marks targets or increase bleed chance, she will end up hurting a lot of enemies. All in all she fits well with markers, dancers, healers" Good hunting!

Duchess Van Hoof Thanks for the great feedback! I think she is very flexible also. And Vix did a great job with the art design.

Turkeyfoot27 In English, the names and effects are showing correctly in my save. Thank you.

I think the text for Powder Nose and Working Girl are swapped with each other

A curious class that I am increasingly fond of. Her camping skills are really neat, and she is deceptively deadly. If you bring another character that marks targets or increase bleed chance, she will end up hurting a lot of enemies. Must say that the aesthetics fit very well and her character model is top notch.

All in all she fits well with markers, dancers, healers, and practically any party.

Rougheredge Nice question: She has a fear of actual snakes!

I'm not sure if anyone has asked this before but I'm geniunely curious why she refuses to team up with the Snake Charmer. It seems like you have a lot of thought put into this mod so I was wondering if there's a story behind that.

@dem22 I tried 2 times to lose 7 trinkets and after 2 Shrieker fight still it has not shown up. And the cc statue bossfight won't reward it. So it is really weird. I have no idea.

辉耀与黯灭 If a unique trinket is lost or sold it will go back into the pool of trinkets and eventually may show up again. Your idea for the Shirker fight usually works also, but if you already had most than 8 lost trinkets lost of on heroes who died, it is random which 8 would appear. Good luck!

Hi，I would like to ask a question which is probably irrelevant to this mod. I just found a CC trinket of the Harlot lost, don't know when or how it happened. Might be someone stole it, or I sold it without realizing, or any other reasons. I searched the logs and had no clue, I tried to intentionally lose up to 8 trinkets to see if the shrieker fight could retrieve but failed. Any suggestions on how I could get a second trinket or get the original back please?

She's a colorful character. She is the kiss of death.

Slackboy101 Always makes me happy to hear when things are discovered. Glad you got a laugh! Thank you for posting.

Love the mod btw, I'm just laughing my ass off at that

I used Heart of Gold on a Space Marine and he got love struck I'm fucking Done...

Thank you!

That is the original Apothecary healer/medic hero class by ScorpiovaEdan. She's quite handy. There was more recently also a an updated version available also.

Off topic, but what is that Plague Doctor skin (?) in the screenshot showcase, with the long red hair in the last screenshot of the party, before the Rescuer class mod splash art?

Hello, author. I am an ordinary player using the mod you made. I found that someone used the resources you shared for free to sell for a fee. He created a q group in China, the QQ group number is 882395913. This QQ group has integrated the resources released by many mod authors for free, and posted a post on the forum, saying that it is his own work (V integration series), and paying to enjoy these resources, he has illegally profited more than 10,000 RMB. But after joining the group, I found that it was all your resources.

Finally a sex positive character, and HIV positive as well!

@Tikotitok well not like they using much condoms in this dark, grim universe lmao

I think Hold Me Tight causing Genital Warts is unneeded. If the intention is to discourage spamming the skill, randomly getting a nasty debuff is not really fun for the player. It already has other things going on which make the skill impractical for dedicated stress healing. Outside
of gameplay, it invokes the "dirty hooker" stereotype, which my inner Social Justice Warrior™ finds tacky. It also seems out of character. She is a dedicated prostitute, spreading around genital warts seems not only sloppy but bad for business.
Would you instead consider giving the skill a tiny chance to cause "Lovestruck" like Heart of Gold does? It's a pretty interesting quirk to get on some classes, but it's very cumbersome to ever aim for on many of those classes. This would make it slightly more available for heroes other than the Plaque Doctor, who seems to be a horny magnet in my runs, being the most common recipient.

the hidden disease chance was unexpected but hilarious. Always Use Protection.
