Quick Answer
Do not pick a boss relic only because it gives energy. Ask what it removes: draw, potion safety, resting, card choice, or consistency. A relic is good only if your deck can pay the cost.
Pick Check
| Question | Safe sign | Trap sign |
|---|---|---|
| Does the deck need energy? | You already have draw and blocks | You cannot spend extra energy well |
| What does the relic remove? | The downside barely affects your plan | It removes your only safety valve |
| Can Act 2 survive it? | Elites and hallway fights still look stable | The relic needs a perfect deck later |
FAQ
Is energy always the best boss relic?
No. Extra energy without draw, block, or a plan can make the deck faster at failing.
What should beginners prioritize?
Consistency first: block, draw, reliable damage, and a relic downside the deck can actually absorb.
