Antikythera

Antikythera

The card works best if you do the precision seeker build, but it’s just super powerful on its own in any build, just throw it in your seeker deck and grab extra clues left and right or draw cards and gain resources non-stop, no need to build around it.

Bewitching

Bewitching

Seems kinda weird. How do I find a card in my top 9 that matches an attached card when the attached cards are face down? I know it's a bit pedantic, but I guess they wanted the draw to be random, but the search to have to find an attached card. Fine, but you'd have to know what's attached, which you cannot.

But You know wich cards are attached to Bewitching: Before drawing opening hand You searched the 3 Tricks and attached them to the permanent! So, You know very well which cards are facedown!! :-D — Piegura · 7
Q: Can I look at facedown cards beneath or attached to other cards I control? If I use the [lightning] ability on Ancestral Knowledge to draw one of the cards attached to it, am I allowed to know what each card is, or is it random? --- A: Unless an effect states otherwise, investigators are allowed to look at the other sides of facedown cards beneath or attached to cards they control, such as Ancestral Knowledge, Backpack, and Diana Stanley. If you are given the ability to draw, play, or interact with one of those cards, you may look at them to know which one you wish to draw or play. This is not true for facedown cards that are attached to encounter cards or placed facedown via a scenario effect, such as swarm cards, empty space, or tomes beneath locations in the challenge scenario Read or Die. In these instances, players cannot look at the other side of those cards unless instructed otherwise. - FAQ, v.1.9, June 2021 — Susumu · 382

Spiritual Echo

Spiritual Echo

This seems like yet another silly card for Luke Robinson. It's just one other tool that gives him absolute control over as much of the board as possible. Use his Gate Box to go away to his happy place, attach the Spiritual Echo to a location that you cannot (or may not want to) enter to eventually scoop up that last clue, deal with a nasty enemy, or whatever else his toolbox is capable of handling, bounce Spiritual Echo back to the hand to use again later on another nasty location.

A Glimmer of Hope

A Glimmer of Hope

This is the first Myriad card that can be upgraded from a level 0 version. "Ashcan" Pete with Down the Rabbit Hole loves this! Got me wondering for a while due to Myriad rules, but I do believe the xp discount is legit.

I wrote a review regarding level 1-5 myriad cards on the DtRH site, and my conclusion (which was agreed on by SGPrometheus and CombStranger) was, that you pay the 1 extra XP for the first card, but then can add the other two copies for free. Now in this case, I would say, you get the discount for the first copy, and then the other two cards also for free. But technically, if you want to use the discount on AGoH (0), you should choose it as the second card, you upgrade. Because, the second can be upgraded for free anyway, but would count as second card, you upgrade, if you would choose to upgrade AGoH first. So the option to dicount a second card would be lost. — Susumu · 382
Interesting take on the importance on choosing AGoH as your second discound from DtRH! I would have never though by myself that an upgrade for free -in the case of a myriad- is still an upgrade. — Ramun · 748
Yeah, but that's just theoretically. Like if you have 2 times "Arcane Research" and want to upgrade "Eldritch Inspiration" from 0 to 1 and another spell by 2+ levels, you of course choose the other spell as the one you upgrade first, because if you would insist on upgrading EI first, RAW you would just save 1 XP, instead of 2. — Susumu · 382
I hope this site does intricate upgrades like this correctly, I've had strange XP calculations with Down the Rabbit Hole and Arcane Research in the past. — AlderSign · 416
I would not fully trust this site on spending XP. It normally assumes, you upgrade in the most beneficial way. And it kind of has, because you have to add cards and remove cards in single steps, not simultainiously add and remove a card, like you in reallity do. But it does have some bugs as well. Red Clock (2) cost 4 XP, Red Clock (5) cost 10 XP, when you buy them at once. But, if you upgrade (2) to (5), you only pay 3 XP for the upgrade in ArkhamDB. I think, there were other bugs as well. — Susumu · 382

It is unclear if the clues on Francis Morgan, when controlled, are part of the investigator's controlled clues. Can the investigator use them to do a Bizarre Diagnosis ? Are they droped at the location when the investigator resigns ?
