The Collector Keeps Showing Up in Darkest Dungeon: What You Need to Know

The Collector is a formidable foe that can appear unexpectedly in Darkest Dungeon, leaving even the most seasoned players bewildered. But fear not, dear adventurer, for with this guide, you'll be better equipped to tackle this pesky boss.

First and foremost, it's essential to understand that Vestals, although capable of healing damaged targets, are terrible at prioritizing their targets. This means they might heal a Highwayman instead of the 5/70 Collector, rendering your efforts futile. On the other hand, you can expect rewards in the form of a gem worth 2500g or one of three 'head' trinkets that offer decent bonuses.

However, if you lack raw damage, The Collector's defenses become laughable, making it easy to stack dots and take him down. But beware, as he has a nasty habit of resummoning the dead adds when you kill two out of the three.

To defeat this boss, you'll need to have some heavy hitters in your backline that can deal significant damage and moderate stress to at least two characters. Additionally, make sure you're prepared to take a single-target Life Leech to heal yourself.

The Collector is known to spawn rarely when your inventory is over 66% filled, and he can appear at any length or difficulty level (scaled accordingly). When he does, be prepared to face three adds that will push him to spot 4. With this knowledge, you'll be better equipped to take on The Collector and emerge victorious.

So, the next time The Collector shows up in your Darkest Dungeon, don't panic – just follow these tips and you'll be well on your way to defeating him. Remember, with great power comes great responsibility, so make sure you're prepared for the challenge ahead!
