Charms: Difference between revisions

When a Charm becomes attached to a card, it modifies the card immediately and cannot be removed or undone. A single card can have a up to 3 Charms at once. A deck that becomes afflicted by the [[Eye of the Storm|Emperor Shade]] will have its Charms carry over into the fight, but outside of this Charms do not persist between runs.

The effect of a Charm is immediately applied to the card as it is at that point in time, and will not be reapplied or recalculated when future modifications are applied. This makes the order in which a player attaches Charms very important. For instance, attaching the [[Boonfire Charm]] to a [[Scrappy Sword]] causes its attack to become 0, and it will instead apply 2 [[Overburn]]. If the [[Battle Charm]] is then applied to that Scrappy Sword, it will deal 2 damage and apply 2 Overburn. If these Charms are applied in the reverse order (Battle Charm then Boonfire Charm), the Scrappy Sword will deal 0 damage and inflict 4 Overburn instead.

Additionally, Charms cannot be attached to cards if they would modify a characteristic that the card does not have, with some exceptions. For instance, a Charm that increases the card's [[Scrap]] can only be attached to a [[Clunkers|Clunker]] card, and a Charm that increases the card's health can only be attached to [[Companions]]. The exception to this rule are cards that don't have an [[File:Attack.png|20px|link=Stats#Primary Stats]] Attack icon, such as Bonnie. These cards do not attack when they trigger, but by applying certain Charms to such cards, they gain a '''0''' [[File:Attack.png|20px|link=Stats#Primary Stats]] Attack icon. In this case, the card will become able to attack when triggering. The Charms that cause this to happen are:

Charms also cannot be attached to a card if they would grant a [[Stats#Keywords|keyword]] that the card already has. For instance, the [[Pomegranate Charm]] cannot be attached to any card that already has [[Stats#Keywords|Barrage]], and the [[Cake Charm]] cannot be attached to a card that already has [[Stats#Keywords|Consume]]. Barrage, [[Stats#Keywords|Aimless]], and [[Stats#Keywords|Longshot]] are also all mutually exclusive, so a card that has one of these keywords cannot have any Charm attached that would grant another. For instance, the [[Gnome Charm]] cannot be attached to a card with Barrage.
