This is completely nuts with parallel Jim Culver. The more I play with it, the more I think it's the best card in the set.
Beyond the synergy previous mention about using the player window for a Eye of Chaos, Armageddon, & Shroud of Shadows:
-
It can choose a non-elite enemy anywhere!
-
It's , so as long as there is an enemy, there is no reason not to use it.
-
It's easy to trigger & triggers often!
-
You choose the rot & they have amazing utility.
-
You can apply multiple rots with a single use.
-
Abyssal Rot - MVP. Removes the main threat of most enemies. Choose wisely, there is only one.
-
Virescent Rot - locks down hunters, patrollers, & elusive enemies often neutralizing them.
-
Scarlet Rot - Helps rid monsters that spawn far away, are aloof, or ones with doom on them.
-
Putrescent Rot - Helps other Investigators with monsters engaged on them.
-
Aember Rot - Least used, but free resources! Pair with scarlet rot.
Two must includes are Favor of the Moon & Dawn Star! Favor can get a guaranteed trigger & dawn star can kill additional monsters when swarmed.
My personal best is 17 damage in a single attack, killing 3 enemies.
- Fight with Armageddon.
- use Rod of Carnamagos during skill test (revealed 2 curses)
- used both Favor of the Moon to reveal 2 more curses + 1 curse pulled from the chaos bag after.
- Spend both Dawn Star to negate the modifiers & deal +5 damage each.
- 17 damage = 7 Armageddon + 5 per Dawn star + 2 rots!
