Torchbearer - Class Mod

This mod adds a new light-based religious profession to Darkest Dungeon: the Torchbearer.

Torchbearer - Class Mod

🔥 **Welcome to the Light of the Torchbearers! ** This mod brings a new religious profession closely related to light - **Torchbearer** to "Darkest Dungeon". He is a unique character that combines damage output, team buffs and pressure healing. His core mechanism is: the brighter the light, the stronger the person! **

✨ Career positioning

The Torchbearer is a **damage dealer, buff applyer, and stress healer**. He has a special mechanic: **When the light level is high, he becomes more powerful, and his fire-based skills consume the light level. ** He leads by example, inspires his peers, and leads them to a higher realm. Through special training with the Holy Torch, he is able to hit his enemies hard and channel the power of light against them in the form of sacred flames.

📝 Update log (v1.1)

This major update aims to make the class more interactive with **stealth** and give the Torchbearer a more important role in your team.

💡 Balance and feedback

As always, my goal is to keep the power of this class balanced with the original base class in the game. If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them!
