While he doesn't contribute directly to the Blight plan, you need someone to Stress heal, and since everyone else in the party is either bad at it or doesn't do it, you need someone great at it, leaving just him and Jester.

Grave Robber is all about spamming Throwing Dagger and the occasional Poison Dart Glint and Absinthe are for situations that will rarely come up, but Pirouette serves as a fine value play that effeciently deals with the game's frequent shuffles. Magnesium Rain helps when you can't hit everyone you want to, while offering some versatility in Burn damage, a means to deal with Dodge tokens, and corpse clear (when Flagellant is busy doing other things, or his turn hasn't come up yet). Try to sequence your heroes via the use of speed trinkets and items such that Flagellant goes third (so you can perform Grenade > Daggers > Necrosis reliably against four-enemy comps). Necrosis is Flagellant's finisher, cleaning up whatever Plague Grenade and Flashing Daggers don't. Undying is the alternative, but you'll rarely find a good opportunity for it, whereas Fester comes up constantly. Sure you already have Magnesium Rain, but anytime Flagellant deals with corpses, Doctor can do more damage (and vice versa). Fester is a fantastic setup tool for all your two-target skills and Crush, plus it doubles as an AoE.

Deathless lives up to its name, going a long way to sustaining your team (an upgrade isn't even needed, albeit it's appreciated).

Whatever they can't deal with, Magnesium Rain and Necrosis can.įlagellant starts off clunky, but after some skill unlocks, he makes a lot of sense as a versatile HP tank. This comp absolutely shreds backlines, thanks to the combined power of Acid Rain and Plague Grenade (even Flashing Dagger helps).

Similar to last time, you can take pretty much what you like here now.
