Shuffling Horror

Shuffling Horror is the first of four bosses that Darkest Dungeon has. It has 2 moves in a single turn and 3 attack types:


 * (1) Lacerate : Does 5-13 damage to the two front heroes with a chance for a strong bleed.


 * (2) Undulation : Very small damage and shuffles all heroes.


 * (3) Echoing Disassembly : Does slight damage, slight stress damage (5-10) and spawns either a Cultist Priest or Defensive Growth (may spawn other kinds)

Strategy

 * Shuffling Horror spawns with a cultist. The Player can focus his attacks on him first to avoid bleed damage whilst trying to apply bleed and bright on the boss -since boss has high PROT, you cannot really hurt him without these. After the cultist is defeated the Player should focus on stress heals and applying the bleed/bright effects. In this point all you have to do is to try to lower stress with other heroes. If not, all/most of the heroes shall fall.


 * Shuffling Horror's main source of damage is high stress damage.
