Cacophony

NecrobinderPowerRarePlaytest

Playtest. In the game’s public beta, not in the live game yet; it can still change.

Every 33 cards drawn by ALL players, deal 66 damage to a random enemy.
  • Counter: starts at 33 and after you play it, every card any player draws takes 1 off, the five card hand draw at the start of each turn included.
  • At 0: a random enemy takes 66 damage, 99 upgraded, and the counter goes back to 33.
  • Not an Attack: Strength and Vulnerable do not change the hit, though Block still absorbs it.
  • Stacking: each copy you play keeps its own count.
  • Availability: it appears only in multiplayer runs, and for now only in the public beta, not the live game.

When to take Cacophony

Do the arithmetic for your table, since two players only drawing 5 cards make 10 draws a round. Take it for elites and bosses, where the counter turns over often.
