== Cove Strategy == Order of target elimination varies depending on the party's [[Health Bar|health]] and [[Stress Bar|stress]] level. If the party is low on health, consider finishing [[Pelagic Grouper|Groupers]] first. If the party is reaching high stress, target back-row shamans. It is recommended to kill the [[Drowned Thrall|Thrall]] as soon as possible no matter the circumstances, however. Leave maggots, stingers, and heavily armored enemies for last, as they are the least dangerous. === Provisions === * [[Medicinal Herbs|Medicinal herbs]] are extremely useful to debuff traps and attacks, as well as curios, like [[Eerie coral|Eerie Coral]] (to heal negative quirks) and the Fish Carcass (which gives you food). * Bring a few extra [[shovel]]s for chests and oysters. * [[Bandage]]s are useful for occasional bleed attacks, specifically from [[Uca Crusher|Uca Crushers]], who have "arterial pinch". * [[Holy Water]] may be useful for Fish Idols. * [[Antivenom]] may be useful for [[Brackish Tide Pool]]s. * [[Skeleton Key]] is occasionally needed for locked chests. * If you have a [[Houndmaster]] in your team, [[Dog Treats]] can be used on oysters for a dodge buff. === Party Composition === Bleed is less effective due to fish scales. Conversely, blight damage is extremely useful due to low resistances and the presence of high PROT enemies with the ability to guard weaker foes. Stun resistance is useful as many Cove enemies use stun attacks. Increasing the [[Heroes#Protection|PROT]] value of frontline heroes can be invaluable here, due to high damage enemies and lack of DOT attacks. It's also worth noting that the [[Occultist]] does increased damage against eldritch enemies, which can be very useful here. ===Things to watch out for=== * [[Drowned Thrall|Thrall]] explosions * [[Pelagic Grouper|Grouper]] damage * [[Uca Crusher|Uca]] bleeds * [[Trap|Trap]] debuffs [[https://darkestdungeon.gamepedia.com/Category:Locations]]
