I think it's fair to say that, with most of the Innsmouth cycle completed, given all the later packs only include XP cards, that this is the best Bless Token generator at level 0. It's fast, so you only spend 1 card and 2 resources to get 40% of the maximum allowable tokens into the bag. Scrounge for Supplies and Resourceful can both get this back to you at the cost of an action. Preston Fairmont can take Ancient Covenant and pay for Leo De Luca very easily to afford Scrounging for this, though his Resourcefulness isn't quite as reliable (but can definitely work with some moderate boosting from a Mariner's Compass, Fire Axe, and/or Well Connected). William Yorick can take either the Ancient Covenant or the Sacred Covenant, and has access to both pools of Bless Token cards, including the resource saver Rite of Sanctification. Father Mateo can use this in combination with Blessing of Isis to trigger his Elder Sign ability way more consistently. I think the absolute top dog for this, though, is the rookie cop Tommy Muldoon, who can take almost any worthwhile Bless Token card in either of his classes and has the resource generation to back it up.

Worth noting also is that Tempt Fate is another level 0 card for Scrounging purposes, but with Keep Faith in the same deck, I see it being the more likely target. Still, Tempt Fate costs 0 instead of 2 and draws you a card, so having that option is nice. I doubt any Bless token deck wouldn't include both if it could (sorry Sister Mary).

Scrying (lv3), Alyssa Graham, or Scroll of Secrets if taboo make Gloria to look encounter deck by trigger ability. All of those require exhaust, so that Gloria only use those cards once per round. After those cards are ready during upkeep phase, Gloria has no chance to trigger those ability until the encounter cards are totally resolved. However, if the encounter card initiates the skill test, Gloria has a chance to trigger those ability. This window is the key window if Gloria wanna to look all encounter cards for 4 players game. If no test will be initiated, another investigator plays A Test of Will (lv 0 or lv 2) to forcly initiate test.

If Gloria in balenced 4-player group, Gloria could focus on controling encounter deck. Even if Gloria only looks encounter decks, the group can be very safe & stable. Gloria doesn't need to consider Fight; the enemy is always drawn by fighter (or flexible fighter/evader). The clue gatherer could go alone without fearing of drawing enemy. If Gloria remains action, she could investigate with high or play event such as Read the Sign, Drawn from the Flame.

The key cards for encounter control is Scrying, Alyssa Graham, and Twila Katherine Price. Gloria could look 4 cards by Scrying. If 4 cards are ok, then place 4 cards. If 1 or more is terrible, then discard/seal one of those card. In this case, place 3rd encounter card which has a skill test. Then, when a investigator tests by 3rd encounter, trigger Alyssa to look final unknown card. Twila Katherine Price could save the charge of Scrying. If you want to save the for Scrying, you could take Scrying (lv3); in this case, however, Gloria needs horror soaking sources, because Scrying usually gives 1 horror.

Really disappointing to see this weapon is not a relic ! It means that if you are playing Carcosa or TCU (for example) you can't rely on it to kill those annoying enemies who require spells / relics to be killed and so that if you want to have a fighter generating blessed tokens you will probably have to use both Blessed blade and Enchanted blade ! I for sure really hope this card will be tabooed to add it the "relic" trait.

The bane of Rogues everywhere. This card, along with Rotting Remains, make Finn have trouble sleeping at night. You're going to be doing those sorts of tests more often than not, so having an answer for this card is important. Notable interaction: Momentum - Use Lockpicks or something to oversucceed by 3 as your last action, then test Frozen in Fear at difficulty 0!

Amanda wants upgraded perception and deduction in her deck. The problem is, even with practice makes perfect, you can only play these cards so many times. ... so why not use obscure studies to loop them? Play them twice, then use obscure studies to put deduction(2) back in your hand. If you’re feeling frisky, or have control of the encounter deck (teaming with Gloria for example, or people with First Watch), You could even use your favorite skill card three times before replacing it. If you’re finishing up clues in a scenario, five uses of deduction(2) should do it for you, even if you miss a few times. Consider Cryptographic Cipher also gives you a fast action.

Another use of studies is to get rid of your weakness! The forced effect of whispers takes place at the beginning of a turn, so as long as you can apply whispers to a skill check before next round, you can get rid of it.
