Wraith Form

SilentPowerAncient
Gain 2 Intangible.
At the start of your turn, lose 1 Dexterity.
  • It gives you Intangible 2, 3 upgraded, and a Wraith Form debuff of 1.
  • Intangible caps every instance of HP loss you would take at 1 and caps damage to your Block at 1 as well.
  • It loses a stack at the end of each enemy turn, so 2 stacks cover the next two enemy turns.
  • The debuff never fades: at the start of each of your turns you lose 1 Dexterity for the rest of the fight, going negative.
  • A second copy costs 2 a turn.
  • It is Ancient rarity, so it comes from Ancient rewards such as Dusty Tome, not ordinary card rewards.
