Somthing tells me thats not gonna be enough. It definitely is -- so says my level 31, 0 deaths NM+ group. Tam's defense takes off mid game, and her blade choice is a big part of her build. |

Does that group happen to have KJ with ranged unlock talent?
Opening the doors in the Storerooms with Tamilin is always going to be a huge gamble. Some groups will make it through, but others won't and there isn't a lot you can do to prevent it. A high parry blade isn't going to help you against a ratkin shaman and a few archers. It definitely won't help you if you happen to roll a Deathkin in the first room, which I've done before.

Sorry -- personal experiences may vary. Player feedback is, always, more important than where my groups are.
Thanks for the feedback, we'll keep working on improving the game and trying to do better!

Just some personal comments on my play through a with nightmare and stealth. I've had similar issues with losing stealth and dying. Episode 2 is deadly due to the storerooms and Krete. Those enemies are better at breaking stealth.
One can either forego stealth, lead with stealth and make a defensive character with buffs/hp, or max out stealth.
I've lost Selen too many times as buffs and equipment,especially early in episode 2, are not godly enough to mitigate risk. My last two parties dominated by maxing stealth. If you do the store rooms with 27 stealth or more, losing stealth becomes a non-issue for all of episode 2 and 3. It happens once in a blue moon to be fair, but I largely forget it ever happens. 27 stealth is pretty common with equipment, skills, and talents. Go higher for extra safety.
With Selen, and even moreso for Tamilin, double down on stealth first to survive the storerooms and other deadly ranged surprises. Positioning is the only sure way to survive SHI and other like enemies.
As your equipment becomes better, dialing down stealth is possible. Episode 3 is fine low 20s stealth as the undead seem to have low spot dice.
This is one solution that worked for me after many Selen deaths in the storerooms.
