The Tempest Leper sacrifices HP and Speed in favor of raw damage via the Chop skill.

Even though there is a decrease in the Leper’s Max HP and SPD, the higher damage allows him to dispatch enemies quickly. The Tempest Path enrages the Leper, greatly increasing his Damage as well as giving him a higher debuff and disease resistance. As his attacks are frequently at risk of missing, the Enlightening Element and Calibrating Censer can offer excellent bonuses in the event of a failed attack. If you’d rather focus on the Leper’s damage role, the Greater Gnarly Knuckles will undo the Path’s inherent damage penalty. Stacking the Greater Hale Draught and Hag’s Hoard will drive the Leper’s HP up while the Reverberating Redoubt can turn the many hits he’s weathering into additional actions of his own. Similarly, there’s no need for additional Move or Stun resistances. The strength of Solemnity means you can easily forgo healing Trinkets. Pairing those with Ruin will allow the Leper to overcome the Path’s damage debuff, or you can lean into the reduced damage role and use support skills to set up your more offensively minded Heroes Bash primes well for a Hellion’s Wicked Hack, or Purge can set the Highwayman up for a Pistol Shot Stun. Liberal use of Withstand and Intimidate will keep the Leper under fire, protecting the rest of the team while he soaks up the damage. While the buff to healing won’t affect his combat consumables, it turns Solemnity+ into a full self heal and allows him to recover from the brink of death with ease. Rendered all but invulnerable to Stun, Daze, and movement skills, the Leper can easily maintain his position in the front ranks. With increased self heals, stun resist and move resist, the Poet Leper is able to take a great amount of damage, and become a veritable King of tanking.Ī Leper who walks the Poet Path sacrifices damage in the name of incredible resilience. The Poet’s Path is one of acceptance and serenity in the face of hardship. 'When pain is accepted, strength flows in abundance.' In particular, we get a chance to learn more about the Poet and the Tempest hero paths available to this particular class known for its resilience and high if unreliable damage output. The Leper is the latest Darkest Dungeon II class to get a dedicated article on the official website.
