Ember Tea

Ember Tea

Event
At the start of the next 5 combats, gain 2 Strength.

Bought from the Tea Master for 150 Gold. For the next 5 combats, entering the fight gives you 2 Strength for that whole combat. The relic shows how many combats remain and greys out when the count reaches 0, after which it is used up. Only combat rooms count down, so shops, events and rest sites in between do not spend it.

When to take Ember Tea

Buy it only when your next five combats include the elite or boss you worry about, five hallway fights are a poor return on 150 Gold. Non-combat rooms do not use it up, so buy it early.
