Bag of Marbles

Bag of Marbles

Common
At the start of each combat, apply 1 Vulnerable to ALL enemies.

Before your first turn begins, every enemy that can be hit receives 1 Vulnerable, so your Attacks that turn deal 50% more. It fires only on turn 1. Because the debuff lands before the enemy side acts, it is used up by the end of the first enemy turn unless you refresh it. An enemy with Artifact negates it.

A strong act 1 common, its 50% Vulnerable on turn 1 ends fights early for an aggressive deck. Take it over Anchor if you attack hard, still useful on elites later.
