Heavenly Drill

RegentAttackRare
Deal 8 damage X times.
Double X if it's 4 or more.
  • X: X is the Energy you spend on it, it deals 8 damage X times, but if X is 4 or more, X is doubled before the hits are counted.
  • Example: three Energy gives 3 hits for 24, four Energy gives 8 hits for 64.
  • Chemical X: anything that raises X, such as it adding 2, is applied before the check, so 2 Energy becomes X of 4 and then 8 hits.
  • Modifiers: each hit is boosted by Strength and Vulnerable.
  • Upgrade: each hit is 10, so 8 hits deal 80.

When to take Heavenly Drill

Take it for a Regent who can reach 4 Energy on a turn, since below that it is just an ordinary X card. Hold it for bosses rather than firing it small.
