You are viewing an old version of this card
Deal 30 damage.
Deal 40 damage.
One energy and 4 Stars for a single 30-damage hit, 40 when upgraded. Both resources are required; the game refuses the play if you are short on either. Strength adds once and Vulnerable makes it 45 or 60. Spending the 4 Stars fires every Star-spend payoff.
When to take Devastate
Good in Act 1 once you have a second Star source beyond Divine Right's 3 per combat; it then kills elites in two plays. Upgrade it before a boss for the jump to 40.
