Not a fan of these cards that only target specific enemy types. I don't like having to memorize which campaign/scenario has what type of enemies, its more fun to go in blind.

This might've been more fun if it was able to target all enemy types, but is easier against humanoids (e.g. Strength test 4 vs non-humanoids, strength test 2 vs humanoids).

All in all, I think its not a great card anyways. Just take scene of the crime. Unless you're going solo, your guardian currently doesn't need to focus too much on clues (and gators like Carolyn Fern has other tools).

Even removing exhaust part away. this card would not even be close to broken.

might be wrong since I'm starting new with a new format but that's my bold opinion on this card so far.

The fact that this card trigger with Evade, Evade Action which is not a useful action or progressing action just multiplying how bad it is.

I'm about to build some deck base on this card but just realize it has to exhaust too so project closed.

"Non- symbol" mean things like , , , , , , , , ... and not any numbers. I believe you cannot re-roll numbers.

Unexpectedly handy for Jim Culver for fishing out . Didn't do probability math but 2 resets on Standard with Jim feels like it reliably allows you to pass test that you are equal or 1 higher as needed. Similar feeling to having Lucky! ready on hand but need to wear it first.

An enemy weakness that asks the question "why do mob goons cause horror?" Looking at the two elements, the effect and the discard condition, we get:

The effect: Daniela clearly has some history with these guys, and so she knows how do deal with them. About the only special thing about them is that direct damage effect, which turns off things like Bandages†, Guard Dog, Peter Sylvestre (2) as well as soak in general. The horror component of their attack is more worrying for Daniela, since she has less Sanity to use, but these bad boys aren't likely to get more than one hit in before she finishes them off, so it's not that significant. As hunters, this isn't an enemy weakness you can ignore, and Daniela isn't big on evasion, so the "mitigation strategy is doing 3 damage in one action. The obvious plan is to use Mechanic's Wrench to provoke an attack, then defeat them with Daniela's ability and a wrench attack. It's so obvious that it's a little odd that they don't have 4 health just to mess with it. If you'd rather not take an attack, many weapons + Vicious Blow will do the trick, as will Chainsaw. Brute Force might be the most direct solution, as Daniela would attack at 8 vs 3, making the 3 damage pretty likely to land, even without extra boosting. If you are worried, throw in an Overpower and get a card draw. I'd also like to endorse HanoverFist's janky solution, above. It's not efficient, but very satisfying if you can pull it off..

The discard condition: Beat them like rented mules.†† It's likely to take Daniella 1, maybe 2, actions to finish them.

Like most enemy weaknesses, this is below average, unlikely to end a scenario or campaign or, really, cost you more than one action.

† Thanks to Susumu, I realized that I meant Flesh Ward, not Bandages. Mea culpa.

†† Note: this should not be taken as an endorsement of beating mules, who are mostly hardworking and affectionate creatures.

Somewhat comparable to mystics' Seal of the Elder Sign which costs 5 exp. Both practically gives you an autosuccess.

Seal doesnt work as well if your stats are low and you need to put additional resources to succeed (arguably Preston Fairmont and sometimes Calvin Wright) but gives you the benefit of the investigator elder sign.

Stroke of luck also has a small chance of failure but can be used after revealing the token (and always gives +1 skill when commited).

In terms of the value of the elder sign, a lot of survivors have situational abilities that can be hard to quantify. Perhaps it's a moot point since (as far as I can recall) only Agnes Baker can take both cards. In her case, her elder sign just gives lots of stats. You'd be paying 5 exp just for an autosuccess where stroke of luck would only cost 2.

For most other investigators on average, the elder sign also gives you a 1.5 card advantage (like Mandy Thompson Harvey Walters, William Yorick, Silas Marsh, Father Mateo). 1.5 cards is worth about 2 exp (according to Emergency Cache and Lucky!).

So with seal of the elder sign you're paying 3 for the autosuccess and 2 for the side benefits. With stroke of luck, you're paying 2 for selective autosuccess after revealing a token (maybe that's worth 0.5 or 1 exp?).

In most cases you're paying only 2 exp for a around a 4 exp effect is a pretty good value exp wise. I think it might even be worth buying and rebuying for the last 2-3 scenarios of a campaign.
