...How can I not see this in the past 2.5 years. I hate you. — ak45 · 475
I always _thought_ something was weird about that card. Anyway, I've submitted it to FFG, maybe it will show up in the next FAQ — Sycopath · 1
Wow, I'm amazed that I never noticed that XD — Zinjanthropus · 233

Haste

Haste

Question: How does Haste interact with on commonly found on weakness cards?

Examples:

1) Spend two actions to discard Hypochondria. Can I take a free on another card afterwards?

2a) What about taking a action first, then wanted to discard Hypochondria. Can I use 1 real + 1 haste action to discard it?

2b) I took two actions first, can I use 1 haste + 1 real action to discard it?

An action triggered ability introduced with more than one arrow is a single action with an additional cost of spending some additional actions. This means that case 1 and 2a don't work - 1 because you've only taken a single Activate action, 2a because Haste is triggered after performing the action (it may trigger in case 2a though, if you have a third activate action to take). Case 2b works. — Thatwasademo · 59
Could you use haste after the two movements on the red clock? — IntoxIcatIon · 1

Disc of Itzamna

Disc of Itzamna

Interestingly, Roland actually prefers the downgrade to the original. This Disc softens up big enemies and still allows him to get the killshot for the clue, and it's an outright testless clue when used on small enemies. Other than Hallowed Mirror (maybe), I don't think there's another accessory I'd rather have for Roland at level 0.

Eye of the Djinn

Eye of the Djinn

When this card was first announced everyone was quick to say it was broken, but I think the truth is that it's trying to give you an almost guaranteed success.

Your base skill is 5, which is great. But what if you draw a bless token? You probably just wasted your Eye of the Djinn on a test you were going to succeed on anywa-- oh wait! You can ready the Eye of the Djinn and get the bonus again next test.

But what if you draw a curse and fail? Bad luck. Wasted the Eye of the Djinn again-- hold on! Get your action back! The curse still punishes you a little, but the Eye of the Djinn will do everything it can to make sure you will get some bonus and security.

Ah but what if you draw a curse and a bless? Then you pass *and* get another action with Djinn! — Difrakt · 1335
it does get a lot better if you can draw a bless and a curse, but I would agree that it's not even remotely broken — Zinjanthropus · 233

Old Book of Lore

Old Book of Lore

This card is even better now that the Eldritch Sophist has been released.

Pack a Forbidden Tome and you can refill your Old Book of Lore each turn. In 5 turns, you can potentially get all the Secrets out of it to have it translated.

Now you can finally use other allies and the latest Taboo List without feeling like you've been robbed of all those resources on your turns with 3 successful investigations, and you do not only get a bargain, you also get a significant increase of tempo.

Use a Library Docent with Calling in Favors on your Forbidden Tome, replacing it with Encyclopedia (0) and you can potentially use the Old Book of Lore once a turn as you will often find cards that do not need to be played immediately such as Skill cards or Events that wouldn't apply to the situation.
