Finale is a controversial skill which has changed many times over the course of Darkest Dungeon’s life. The pre-CoM state of Finale was considered quite weak, while the more powerful older versions didn’t really fit the theme of the skill. A big motivator for me when I decided to rework the vanilla heroes was to see if I could hit a sweet spot with Finale that fit the theme and was balanced.
Red Hook greatly improved the Finale build in Color of Madness patch by making it a one-time gigantic finisher, whereas my version encourages more of a rotation where you spent a turn or two setting up, Finale for a solid hit, and then start the rotation again. The current vanilla version is certainly is more of a true finale, but personally I’m partial to my design for a few reasons:
Overall I’m happy with where I landed on Finale, even though you could argue it’s less thematic in some ways than the current vanilla version.
Dirk Stab, which took me many iterations to find a version I was happy with, has finally found a home as the centerpiece of a bleed/crit/finale build, in combination with the modified crit buff.
