"Where's the party?"

so if I take this with Mandy Thompson I can search encounter deck for 2 non elite enemies and spawn them exhausted then draw cards equal to those enemies' combined damage and horror values? question is... I imagine this is on avarge 5 card draw but killing them will be a lot of hassle?

Alice Luxley

The difference between the level 0 and the level 2 version is not worth the 2 XP in most of my decks as I usually play a fighter + a cluever so the added "The first investigate action you perform each turn does not provoke attacks of opportunity" is not interesting for either investigator.

But in the rare cases when I play a trio with fighter + cluever + versatile investigator, I think Alice Luxley could make me reconsider Michael Leigh:

  • investigation with + 2, no attack of opportunity,
  • discovering a clue gives 1 damages with Alice Luxley and 1 evidence on Michael Leigh,
  • attack with any asset / event (with an added + 1 strength), use of one evidence token,
  • in case of success, 1 additionnai damage thanks to Michael Leigh.

If you consider that the attack aims for 2 damages in a single action and that your 2 allies have given you 2 additional damages, you could even play Evidence! for 2 additional clues. And Alice Luxley's ability can be used on any enemy in your location: Elite, Aloof, engaged with someone else, ...

Very pricey combo XP-wise, but very efficient in this setting (i. e. investigator who has to help both with damages and clues).

Cosmic Revelation

It has been mentioned in previous reviews ans comment that:

  • it gives additional actions at 3 / 4 players,
  • it allows investigator A to play a card during investigator B's turn,
  • it allows this investigator A to avoid an attack of opportunity,
  • with Farsight you can give it Fast, to get an additional action bonus and potentially to avoid an other AoO.

With the Spell trait, you can also attach it to Dayana Esperence in a support deck.

Oh man, the Esperence idea sounds sick. Especially considering how easy it is to refill her secrets these days. — OrionAnderson · 133
Correlate All Its Contents

Correlate All Its Contents is to Truth from Fiction what Burning the Midnight Oil is to Emergency Cache. If Correlate All Its Contents's only effect was "Investigate. If you draw the auto-fail token for this skill test, you can may return it to the bag and reveal a new token," it would still be playable. The fact that Correlate All Its Contents doubles as a tool to replenish cards like Scroll of Secrets, Rite of Seeking, or Divination takes Correlate All Its Contents from "niche, but playable" to an essential staple of Seeker decks that abuse cards with charges or secrets.

The Bell Tolls

There is no need to this card to exist, there is no "mechanic" to it, there's no thrill, only frustration. I just do not use it. If only there were ways for one to "counter" and/or "minimize" its effects I would accept this card in my pool.

The Return to equivalent is way more interesting ! You have ways to counter this weakness, I assume the best is Scroll of secrets (seeker). — TribulationsSolo · 1
