Patter

RegentSkillCommon
Gain 8 Block.
Gain 2 Vigor.

One Energy gives 8 Block (10 upgraded) and 2 Vigor (3 upgraded). Vigor adds itself to your next Attack from a card and is then spent. The code applies it to every hit of that one Attack, so a three-hit card gains it three times. Vigor never decays, and more Vigor from other sources stacks on top before the swing.

When to take Patter

A Common that fills the Defend slot with a small bonus, worth taking early when you need Block. It gets better the more multi-hit Attacks the deck owns, and the upgrade is cheap value.
