DO NOT String Along or commit Daring to an evasion attempt against this enemy: you are looking at the risk of taking 4 Damage and Horror if you fail! You may not even live long enough to regret it, for that matter...
I'm surprised there aren't any reviews for this card yet.
This is basically [Grotesque Statue 2] for one less XP, while taking up a slot with much less competition. That alone already makes it a very attractive upgrade.
Everything that made Grotesque Statue excellent applies here as well: it protects you from autofails, nasty symbol effects, and lets you push through critical tests when it matters most. On top of that, Mask of Silenus doesn't discard itself when it runs out of offerings, meaning it can be recharged with other cards instead of having to be replayed.
If your deck can support replenishing its offerings, this is an incredibly efficient source of consistency.
How to epically fail with this card:
- Target an elite enemy at a connecting location with Marksmanship. Since there are no enemies at your location, the test difficulty is 0.
- Emboldened by this display of tactical genius, unleash a glorious hail of 6 bullets for a whopping 7 damage.
- Then remember that Gatling Gun changes the damage assignment, forcing it to be distributed among enemies at your location... where there are none.
- Quietly contemplate your life choices.

Commit Long Shot and be done with that Whoopie next door!

I was looking for a reliable way to ready Duke every turn without discarding any card and finally got it! Attaching The Raven Quill to Shrivelling or Rite of Seeking and then upgrade 'Interwoven Ink' enables you to investigate or fight 3 times in a turn with a base status of 4 for all the three actions (which is enough for a generalist in an easy/medium campaign). However it seems like a high investment since it would take all the five precious slots for non- cards Pete has. Any tips for how can I make it in a less expensive way?

At first it should be mentioned, that this combo only works with the new card collector, whichs allow you to take a level 0-3 relic for 5 extra cards. So you should probably look for more draw and search effects for your deck. Also the new spell suites should work better since they depend not so strong on spending charges.

Some years ago I wrote a review for the Original Dexter Drake card (Innsmouth) complaining about his dexterity being so low and now they released the "fixed" version, so I like to think that my comment opened the game designers' eyes. You're welcome guys.

We owe a lot to this guy. If it weren't for him, Dexter would still have 2 agility. He deserved full credit and all bragging rights. I heard his dad is Cthulhu so you better watch what you say >:(

I think they are actually the designer of the new Dexter and playing it humble.

Thank y'all for the love and support, guys. But I think making the game better for everyone is the reward itself. <3
