Default Dire Covenant Preview: Mason's Spire



Faction: Forsaken Wastes

Story: After the War of Kinsmen, it was from these spires that Serkan commanded his Bone Masons to rebuild the Barrier Wall using corpses of the slain. The Barrier Wall was later renamed 'The Wall of Bone.'

Description: Friendly relics deployed while this relic is in play receive +10 Defense and +10 maximum HP. You gain 5 nora whenever you play a relic while this relic is in play.

Rune Type: Relic

Nora Cost: 25


CrupZ comments
'The Main goal of this rune was to shore up some of the weaknesses that FW has with their relics. Unholy Tomb, Eternal Lich Phylacteries are both relatively weak in their naturaly deployed state.

We wanted to create a rune that makes it a little more difficult for these key relics from being destroyed. We also considered some of the implications in split decks.

Soulsphere + Spire? Oh hell yea. Deploying 35 hp nora mines in a FW/IS split? Gnarly.

And yes the effect does stack at the moment.'



Note: All runes are subject to change and or removal from the expansion.

Interesting. However, does the effect only occur when relics are deployed 'after' this is deployed or do they retroactively gain the bonus?

Also, it doesn't state whether the effects are permanent or if they are removed when this relic is removed from play.

doesn't look immediately as powerful as the other previews, time will tell.

it does look like it will make FW even MORE annoying to play against (if such a thing were possible)
