Turn 1

How to beat Globe Head

  • Decide on turn one whether your Powers are worth 6 HP each: with a Power-heavy deck, play the essential ones early and skip the marginal ones.
  • Strength climbs by 2 every three turns, and the three-hit Channel Lightning turns that into 6 extra damage per cycle, so this is not a fight to stall.
  • Frail from Shocking Slap lands right before the multi-hit turn, so block Channel Lightning with margin.
  • The Slap turn is the safest one to attack on.

Notes

  • Normal fight in the Glory act, alone, 148 HP (158 at Ascension 8+).
  • Galvanic Burst is hidden from the compendium move list.
  • The Galvanized damage is flat: nothing that scales attack damage changes it.
