Lethality
NecrobinderPowerUncommon
Effect: it puts a Lethality power on you, the first Attack card you play each turn deals 50% more, 75% upgraded, applied to every hit of that card.
Limit: the check counts Attack card plays this turn, so a second Attack gets nothing, and a card replayed by an extra-play effect only gets the bonus on its first play.- Stacking: it stacks by amount, so two copies give 100%.
Ethereal: the card is Ethereal, if it is still in your Hand at end of turn it is Exhausted.
When to take Lethality
Take it when your damage comes from one big swing a turn, since it turns Bury's hit into a much bigger one. Play it the turn you draw it, and upgrade early for the better percentage.
