Muligan hard for Peter and Scavenging. Discarding items especially knofe and flash light to ready Duke and then pull them back with scavening rinse and repeat. Also you can use scavenging to get back the rosary or coat if they take to much damage. Shriviling and Rige of Seeking are great for your third action as with Rosary and Upgraded Peter you have 6 willpowe.

You do realize, that Duke takes up your Ally Slot, right?

@ThaneeDuke has the ally keyword, but he does not have the ally slot on his card so you can have him and Peter/some other ally out at the same time.

Apologize for some of the spelling mistakes in original post. Posted from phone and did not catxh them all.

@Thanee as @powerguy stated Duke does not take up an ally slot leaving you free to play Peter or other allies. Duke is also great when you have negative modifiers to book and punch attributes as Duke by passes this and allows you to test at 4 for both of these skills.

My Dunwhich Legacy will be here today and this will be my first deck I try (will re-do core)

Pretty dang good. I subbed emergency cache for forbidden knowledgr though. Dunno if I will be able to take dowb Umhordoth though.

forbidden knowledge seems really risky with only 5 brains, even with sylvester.

Are you saying if I have a negative 1 to Investigate, and I use Duke's ability, i would not subtract 1 from that value? If so, what what if I had say...a blanket +1 intellect card out. Would that not then buff Duke's investigate?

I would double down on Holy Rosary and ditch your forbidden knowledge.

I would only run knowledge if you were packing some Liquid Courage.

Why do you have Flashlight in the deck? It has no synergy with neither Duke nor Rite of Seeking. Just as a backup?

Jan 22, 2017 Melkor · 176

Flashlight is mainly in as an item that you can chuck it to stand Duke and then scavenge it back. Plus it doesn't really hurt you if you don't succed by plus 2 on an investigating and therefore don't get back from scavening. In a really bad situtation it can act as a poor backup to help you investigate.

@Zerfsee @Melkor above.

@guybrush @Myriad I think Forbidden Knowledge has great synergy with Peter Sylvestre because you can, just before your turn ends, grab a resource by taking a horror, put it on Peter, then take it off of him at the end of your turn. Unless I'm missing something, that seems like an easy way to get a resource for free on any turn where horror has not already been placed on Peter.

I get that. My problem is part of your deck's shtick comes from item cards and you have less than 1/3rd of your deck as item cards.

Now, maybe between that and your skill boosters you are just fine. But I would probably be happier with the concept if you jammed a few more items in there.
