Darkest Dungeon Weald Farming Party: Tips for Success

When it comes to farming Curios in Darkest Dungeon, especially in the Weald, having the right provisions can make all the difference. The length of your dungeon run plays a significant role in determining what curio provisions you should bring along.

One important consideration is lighting. Even if you don't plan on using torches for light, you'll still need at least one to access Shambler Altars. As a general rule of thumb, bringing twice the average amount of provisions is a good idea. For example, with an average food drop rate of 20 and a 95% interval of 40, it's not uncommon for your needs to exceed the expected amount.

In my experience, I always bring the maximum amount of food and torches to ensure that I'm never caught short. In long dungeons, you're unlikely to need more than what you have on hand, as you won't be needing to snuff out your torch to grab extra loot. Typically, a short dungeon consists of around 4 battles, while medium-length dungeons have about 8 and long ones have around 12. With this in mind, it's a good idea to bring at least 4 torches per battle beyond the first.

It's also important to remember to snuff out your torch completely before looting Curios or ending a battle to maximize loot gain. When playing with both torches and food, I find that bringing plenty of both allows you to benefit more from Curios.

Of course, there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to Weald farming, as the specific strategy will depend on what you want to achieve in your dungeon run. However, by keeping these tips in mind, you'll be well on your way to building a successful farming party.
