Unsettling Lamp

Unsettling Lamp

Rare
Each combat, the first time you play a card that Debuffs an enemy, double its effect.
  • Starts each combat lit.
  • Trigger: the first card you play that applies a visible debuff to an enemy. Every debuff that card applies is doubled for the card's whole resolution, including repeated applications from the same card.
  • A temporary effect that carries an inner debuff is doubled once, not twice.
  • Debuffs from relics and powers neither trigger nor benefit.
  • Once the card finishes, the lamp goes dark until the next combat.
