Shattersong guide
Updated
Board game: Shattersong is Shards in the official FAQ. Open the questions below only when you want class-mechanic spoilers.
How this class enters a campaign
Use the campaign instruction that opens this class. Retirement is not a universal class prerequisite. The unlock guide explains what is and is not verified.
Builds
Once unlocked, check the exact text a proposed bonus can modify before filling a hand. Review items, damage rules and the solo add-on independently.
Questions
Shards spoilers: what does Empowering Note modify?
A numeral is a written digit, not a spelled-out number. Default Move and Attack are abilities and can be modified. Editorial recommendation: inspect the exact notation rather than assuming every number-like phrase qualifies.
Shards spoilers: which support and damage interactions matter?
Shape the Path can Bless the same character more than once. Unsustainable Wave counts damage suffered, capped at remaining health, not overkill. The FAQ also corrects 'WAVE ability' to 'WAVE Action'. Editorial recommendation: distinguish actions from their component abilities before planning combinations.
