Darkest Dungeon will slap you around something rotten before you see the end, and if you nabbed the Colour Of Madness DLC, well, you are in for a dry, hard loaf - courtesy of The Miller. This will allow you to deal +15% DMG on the next Weald quest, which will be this one and make things a hell of a lot easier. Published This guide walks you through the team composition and tactics you'll need to take down The Miller.

If you can, do a corpse purifying quest just before this one to get the 'Sunshine in the Thicket' town event. Man at Arms also has nice buffs on your whole party (Man at Arms can also strike rank 3 with his basic attack, so he's a better choice than Leper or Crusader for position 1) Again, Highwayman has very nice self-buffs for that. Use any kind of DMG and CRIT buffs you can lay your hands on during camping prior to the boss.


Although you also need to be sure your party is flexible regarding which position they can attack from, because if someone goes in the pot and comes out, they will move the whole party back and be on position 1, and this can mess you up big time. Highwayman and Graverobber are very nice here, as are the Arbalest and Houndmaster. Even better if they have a high chance to crit.
