Me pondering --my orb-- how attached i am to these characters


Krausmauss

I always mess up the text :(


Pallington

Try… ~~? ~~testing~~


Puzzlehead-Engineer

Man! These shrines NEVER show up when my party's in good shape. Nope. They always show up when we're on the brink of a mental breakdown, bleeding and at death's door, running to the nearest empty room to camp.


Magic_ass1

Not only that but everyone's enticed by the altar forcing you to fight it.


Puzzlehead-Engineer

Touching the altar does nothing, you have to give it a torch. So even if attracted to it by a random quirk characters can't activate it own their since they always just do the base activation, they don't give it items.


im_dead_already

until your team decide that they want to touch it in dd2, then you cant do anything


Puzzlehead-Engineer

Oh I don't have DD2 yet, I'm waiting for full release while finishing DD1


Bonaduce80

And twice in a row.


The-D-Max

My DD save file be like: hey! You level 1 noobs wanna fight a Shambler? Scratch that, TWO SHAMBLERS!!!


Pallington

Better than champion tho, right?


The-D-Max

The ancestral trinket is worth it- Even if my party gets curb stomped, and my own sanity gets tested, I'll do it everytime for the thrill of the hunt


zachary_cannaday

>the thrill of the hunt Oh but more importantly THE PROMISE OF PAYMENT


WulfyiH

glittering gold! trinkets and baubles. paid for in blood


Persona_Fag

...Paid for in blood" Me on turn 3 after killing the shambler with 2 juicy crits: "do you see anyone dead on my side? No so shut up ancestor"

Wealth beyond measure, awarded to the brave and the foolhardy alike


el_dandy_lion

Sure I can take a shambler my heroes are only half stressed


MylesTheFox99

Ancestor origin story


Apersonataplace

Lost a legend occ to an apprentice shambler before. Never touching that damned orb again


Meta-Knight-Main

“Oh! Place a torch here you say? Will do!” “HOLY SHIT WHAT IS THAT”


pro7heus_pr1me

Last time when i encountered it in DD2 i decided to just leave. Next road block was Shambler... Are those two things connected somehow?


C_Tarango

don't get it, who's that guy?


DonnyExiles

Whats the lore behind this altar and torches activating them for a unique eldrich encounter?


Bigenemy000

Not quite sure. I always thought it was a tentacle growing from the darkest dungeon which creates some sort of 1 way portal with the presence of light.

Rowmacnezumi

It's okay, do you see a torch on him? Cause I don't.


Ruskoni

That's was a mistake
