Darkest Dungeon 2 – Where to Find the Dreaming General

As players explore the new Roguelike Darkest Dungeon 2, they will confront various fearsome creatures. These boss enemies drop trophies that let you enter the mountain. The Dreaming General is an excellent example of a monstrous flora-infused corpse capable of totally immobilizing a party and killing them with tremendous attacks. This post will describe where you can find the Dreaming General in Darkest Dungeon 2.

The Dreaming General Location

The Dreaming General can only be found in The Tangle, in a customized Lair known as The General’s Keep. Before tackling the monster, players unfamiliar with the region should familiarize themselves with the enemies scattered across it.

As with any other Lair, players should be well-stocked with damage-boosting potions and trinkets, as many of the foes in this region have higher HP and defense-boosting skills. Ordainment has a higher possibility of occurring in certain zones, so prepare.

Where to Find the Dreaming General

The Dreaming General can be encountered at any point throughout the Stagecoach’s journey through the Tangle. His Lair, the General’s Keep, may be discovered in that area. Like every other Lair, you’ll have to fight through two floors of minions before facing the monster.

The General’s Keep is guarded by the Lost Battalion, one of the game’s most formidable enemies.  They are coordinated, hard-hitting, and may even be resurrected to full health by a Bishop. When navigating the Tangle, have at least one Skill that can cleanse corpses, such as the Graverobber’s Dead of Night or the Leper’s Purge.

The Highwayman’s Highway Robbery skill also removes the Battalion’s numerous bonuses; the improved version can even steal those benefits and apply them to the Highwayman. The Lost Battalion, particularly the Dreaming General, are vulnerable to Burn. Having the Runaway in your team makes dealing with these enemies considerably easier.

Blight also works reasonably well, so if your plague doctor isn’t busy curing the wounded, she can deal with more chronic damage. Finally, which is critical, have various strikes that can target the rear rank. You will undoubtedly lose this encounter if you cannot land hits on the Tap Root behind the General.

Strategy for Defeating the Dreaming General

With all of this in mind, you can begin to fully comprehend the Dreaming General’s encounter and devise a strategy to overcome him. First and foremost, you must assault the Tap Root twice per turn to keep the Tangled Growth tokens at bay and your characters from getting ‘Strangled.’ If you took at least two ranged attackers along as described above, this will be no problem.

Next, you’ll need to reduce the damage caused by ‘The Walking Dead’, which you’ll have to deal with eventually. This attack only targets characters who are marked with Root tokens, so you can anticipate it and prepare by performing protective Skills on them. This isn’t always possible, but if your party contains the Man-at-Arms, you can make good use of ‘Defender’ here.

Finally, you will have to wear down the Dreaming General himself. He has a lot of health, therefore damage-over-time effects are effective here, especially Burn and Bleed, because his Blight resistance is high. Aside from this, you’ll want to chip away at him with physical strikes. The optimal arrangement here would be two melee attackers in the front and two ranged attackers in the back.

You’ll also need to heal frequently: this is a long-duration combat, and the damage from ‘Unsettling Whispers’ and ‘The Waking Dead’ will pile up over time. As well as any further damage caused by stress-induced meltdowns. Characters like as the Plague Doctor and Flagellant can excel here, especially when accompanied by Combat Items that provide additional healing on top.
