It's a... fine enough card, I guess? I suppose big hand Seekers (Harvey Walters and the like) might look to this as a good 3 XP investment, but as it stands I think Death • XIII and the flat +1 that it provides are a much more consistently good XP purchase than ZA WARUDO. That being said, with Moon Pendant allowing for tarot committing, that makes this a lot less of a bad purchase otherwise, so YMMV.

Nobody in this review section has mentioned that this card is absolutely bonkers on Patrice. Since your goal with her is to include as many cards with pips as possible and use them all on your turn, you will regularly be using this for the full 5 pips. It's especially helpful in dealing with that one guy when he shows up and can otherwise make just about any action you do an anything-but-the-auto-fail.

With her, it synergizes especially well with Cornered. You're going to refill your hand every turn anyway so discard any card you won't use this turn and add another pip to Last Chance.

I'm just sad that Marie can't take this and she is the only investigator right now where I would consider this right now. Three testless damage is pretty great though, many Solo/duo Seekers might like the upgrade.

2xSign Magick + 2xFamiliar Spirit + 2xThe Hierophant • V = 8 Arcane Slots.

To hold both Sign Magick and Dragon Pole, we just need a Bandolier(2).

To play two copies of The Hierophant • V, we simply need Anna Kaslow.

To play two copies of Familiar Spirit and Anna Kaslow, we merely need 2x Charisma.

We then need to fill our Arcane Slots to get the attack boost, but luckily The Hierophant • V allows us to fill the slots with a bunch of accessories as well as spells.

So if we spend about 12 XP, draw our deck in the right order and put down 17 assets, we have an insane weapon that will fight with a whopping +8 , deal as much damage as a .45 Automatic and never run out of ammo!

At this point Conglomeration of Spheres will be the only thing that can stop us.

I wasn't the one that came up with this, but consider for a moment two investigators who can take this, Ursula Downs and Trish Scarborough. They can also take Eldritch Sophist and Pendant of the Queen (which RFGs once it runs out of charges, according to the latest taboo). It's a pretty interesting one to use as a battery, because it still does its thing even while you're siphoning charges off of it. You could just keep it permanently at 3 charges to just get an extra action every turn on top of keeping your Pendant alive.
