Heroes that remain in the Hamlet when you set out on an Expedition will have the curse state progress by 30 rounds, even if you immediately return from the Expedition. Those who are cursed are immune to all Diseases, and all diseases they had before are cured. When the Infestation reaches its peak, these random spawns will have a Gatekeeper carrying an Invitation.ĭefeating said Gatekeeper will always grant the player one Invitation, but from the second round of combat, the monster can use 'Elusive Exit' to escape, denying the player the Invitation drop.īe wary, for the curse can spread while you're away from the Hamlet, and while in a dungeon, you may come across those who wish to end the curse by any means necessary. It's important to note that after completing the first Courtyard quest, subsequent runs require an Invitation to gain entry: as the Crimson Curse's Infestation grows, Bloodsuckers begin to spawn in every other location. The ability to cure it through the Sanitarium will become permanently available once the Countess is slain. The Curse is automatically removed from all heroes in your roster after slaying a Courtyard Boss. It is only found in the Crimson Court DLC. The Crimson Curse is a persistent status effect, much like a disease (but can't be cured by camping skill Leeches and Snuff Box), that gives a hero unique conditions and may lead to the character's death if not treated.

' These swarming fiends carry a pernicious plague! A sickness so virulent, so insidious, it is more a curse than a mere disease.'
