I feel like it is not extremely complex, however. The Soothsinger is a very fun character to play. It does a base 1 damage, but I believe that it stuns as well. And I don’t remember what the other one does exactly, because in three scenarios, I’ve used it once. One allows me to do basically a normal attack but then curse the monster and bless an adjacent ally. Right now, I think I have two attack cards that do damage in a way different the normal damage you can do no a card. However, the Soothsinger has low health and not that many cards, so being more in the fray is dangerous. The songs are always going to be a strong component in your deck, but adding in that damage and attacking ability could be fun as well. However, playing support isn’t for everyone, and it might be that it won’t be for me the whole time I play the Soothsinger. There are a number of area affect attack cards that I could slot into my deck without losing much speed, but I would drop a lot of my support ability. You’d still use songs, as they give you XP at the start of each round, but you could have a limited number of them and instead focus on your own attacks. Now, having flipped through the cards, it is possible to play a much more aggressive Soothsinger than I am. The combination of blessings and strengthen, which gives you advantage, means that you are basically always modifying your damage higher. And the biggest help I’ve found in these support cards that I can play has been a card that allows me to strengthen my allies. This means that my allies can deal out a whole lot more damage. I also hand out a lot of blessings for my allies and curses for my enemies. While that might not have changed the outcome of the scenario, it was very useful. This going out of order allowed us to complete a task one turn earlier than we would be able to otherwise. I have cards that strengthen allies, stun all enemies in a certain range, or even cards that allow my allies to either move or attack. While our Soothsinger and Scoundrel never were in the party together, having the Soothsinger go so quickly means that I can adjust the battlefield for the other players. They would probably rival the Scoundrel in terms of speed, and that is key. There are songs that can be swapped in any time really that will help out your allies, and you don’t need to be in the middle of the fray.Īnother big thing about the Soothsinger is that they are very fast. There are other songs that wound opponents when they are attacked, give extra speed or range, and give opponents disadvantage. This kept the damage down because otherwise we might have had characters get exhausted in the scenario. Normally I have a card that adds additional damage to an attack out, but because players were getting poisoned each round, I instead I used a song that allowed them to heal 1 point at the start of each round and would remove the poison for them. For example, in the last combat, we were dealing with a fair amount of poison. Normally I’ve found that I don’t switch the song that I’m playing all that often, because depending on the creatures, certain cards are better than others. I’m only a level four character so I haven’t unlocked the most powerful songs, but there are a lot of interesting cards. It’s a bonus for your allies most often, though can be a negative to the enemies depending on how you want to play it. These are cards that you put in play and leave in play until you switch the song you are playing. The main focus of the Soothsinger is a mechanic known as “songs”. In Dungeons and Dragons, a bard is a capable fighter because of their spells, and while I likely could make the Soothsinger into a capable fighter by my card selection, it really shines as a support character. It is musical notes, so in most other systems it probably would be considered a bard. The Soothsinger is an interesting character, I picked my original retirement objective because of the symbol that was for the soothsinger.

But I feel like I have a decent grasp on what this character can do. This is my second character, so I’ve only played him a couple of times thus far.
