Greetings,Long ago I really enjoyed Descent 1e, but the length of the games and my preference for co-op rather than 1vs. Many games caused me to skip 2e. However the Road to Legend app now brings in full co-op so I am very interested and quite on the fence about picking up the base game and maybe an expansion.
Currently the game group favorite is Brimstone with its choose your own adventure sort of random elements. One thing that is nice is each kill grants experience towards new skills and each fight grants possible loot or gold for new goodies.
It has been forever since I played Descent. How does progression work in 2e with the application? In the YouTube videos I have watch it seems to just be a battle slog tile to tile with no exp, gold, and few story beats. Can anyone expand on this? Is the experience, skills, etc. all done at the end of quests or something? Is it a big chunk equally spread to the group?
Also, if I was to get the main box for co-op play, what would be your first two suggested expansions to add to the experience? Why those over others?
Thanks all.
