The following patch was deployed on 15 August 2022 for Darkest Dungeon II.
Build 0.15.36653 - Oblivion's Ingress[]
Cultists![]
- Updated the environment art for the Guardian node
- Low light Cultist ambushes now include a Deacon or Cardinal instead of only standard Cultists
- Reaching maximum Doom will now result in an Exemplar fight
- You can no longer retreat from Guardian nodes
- Guardian nodes now consist of 2 Cultist battles, with the nature of the second battle being determined by biome
- Biome 1 ends with a Deacon fight
- Biome 2 ends with a Cardinal fight
- Biome 3 ends with an Exemplar fight
- Cultist fights on the Mountain are no longer randomized
- First fight contains an Exemplar
- Second fight contains a Deacon and Cardinal
- The Deacon's "The Flesh Warps" now randomizes whether it starts on the -50% melee or -50% ranged defense buff
All Worship skills are now considered Free Actions. This means:
- They no longer occur automatically at the start of a round
- They occur as part of the Cultist's turn, so they are subject to Stun/DOT damage
- They do not end the Cultist's turn on use
- More than one Cultist can now Worship in the same round
Gameplay[]
- [community]Updated how combat items and other free actions affect turns:
- An immediate benefit players will experience is that we’ve set it up so that Turn End triggers (certain trinkets, buffs, duration countdowns, etc) to only occur after a skill is used that would end the turn
- [community]Updated mini-map tooltips for Cultist Territory and Guardian nodes, to now use their lore /game terms of Oblivion's Ingress and Oblivion's Rampart respectively.
- Oblivion’s Ramparts now reduce Loathing by 1, instead of 2, because they are no longer optional
- Cultist encounters reward adjusted for changes to Oblivion’s Rampart wave count
- Reduced drop chance for cultist trinkets from all cultist fights

- Fixed an issue where both cultist trinkets would not be returned after a hero death
- [community]Dark Impulse: now drops with random effects and the inventory frame has been updated to match other Unforgettable trinkets
- [community]Generic trinkets no longer appear in The Academic's Study
- Uncommon Seashell now properly checks when the Leper is bleeding, not the enemy
- Food inn items no longer heal
- Fixed an issue with a Creature Den choice showing that it would Blind enemies when it would Daze them
- Footman's Grog: Removed -25% DMG Taken
- Trinket condition tool tips for stress now use the amount rather than percent
- Fixed an issue with a Creature Den flee option that resulted in combat instead
- Creature Den and Resist nodes that apply negative effects to monsters on start are now non-resistable
- [community]Fixed an issue where converting stacks of certain token types, such as Vulnerable to Block, caused them to cancel one another out before conversion was complete
- Fixed an issue where "Random' AoE Multi-Hit skills would ignore Taunt and Stealth tokens
- Fixed several combat items not triggering their VFX
- Fixed an bug where a HP debuff from a quirk caused from a meltdown would force hero into Death’s Door
- Fixed a Softlock issue caused by a hero corpse and extra turn effects
- Fixed an issue where an unprocessed stress trigger resulted in a seemingly random meltdown in the inn
- Fix to movement happening after effect results
- Fixed an issue where moved enemies would ignore the immobilized token from a bear trap
- Fixed an issue where a Trench Run biome would fail to generate due to impossible goals
