Hi I did not use this build yeat, but i think it should be ok. The idea is to upgrade strange solution to acid ichor as fast as You can. With Sleight of Hand You can deal 9 damege in one turn. It can also be very useful for flashlight. You run out of acid? your friendly neighborhood Venturer can fix it, also, he relode Your flashlights. In solo You will be good in both, fighting and investigating. If You are plaing witch big group (3 or 4 players), i recomend switch Flashlights for Magnifying Glass, and Deduction for Archaic Glyphs. When You upgrade them to Guiding Stones, Your Rex will be discovering 3 clues in one actions, what will leave you time to wrap monsters with acid, if necessary. For upgrades : After Strange solution, I strongly recomend to buy 2 copys of No stone Unturned(5). It will help with finding cards with are necessery for this build.
I see potential in this build, I hope that in future we will get more suplay items for seekers. Or Seeker 5/ guardian 2 investigator, He/She will be monster. English is not my native language, so please be understanding. Regards

Love the idea. A few thoughts incase they help:

  • The upgraded Emergency Cache (3) can also replenish supplies by the way.
  • You might get more use from Manual Dexterity and/or Guts rather than Overpower. Your base of 2 +2 isnt likely to pass many tests without extra boosts, but 3+2 should (at least on standard mode). Plus ofc once you have the acid down you wont be using overpower for combat.
  • I would try to get more draw in there somewhere. Any deck that revolves around 1 card is going to struggle when it cant find it. Draw helps you find it as fast as possible.

I don know why, but some of link dont work in my last comment. Sory for double post.

  • You're right with Emergency Cache (3). After some thought, it seems to me that the basic version of this card should be in this build as well. Venturer are pretty expensive. I think you can change Shortcut or Inquiring Mind to Emergency Cache.

  • I think that Higher Education is enough for passing will tests. I know that dex tests will be problem, but Venturer give good horror and damage soak. I want to have Overpower to boost Acid Ichor. Even on the standard difficulty base 6 strength may be not enough on some opponents. It seems to me that according to the rules I can increase base stat of Acid Ichor, am i wrong?

  • I know, that's why I have Eureka! and No Stone Unturned. later it may be very useful to buy Cryptic Research. Also, i thing You can turn Delve to Deep into Lucky Cigarette Case, this is a great card for rex. Thank you very much for the advice. Regards.

Strange Solution sets your base fight to 6 so it overides Rex Murphy fight of 2, but you can boost it as you like. Scientific Theory is an option if don’t need ressorces.

For drawing I’d recommend Cryptic Research and Eidetic Memory when you have xp available.
