Seoni does want the Ally 5 (Sand Elemental), thanks!
Trader will be Falsin Deek. And assuming no one else wants it, I'd like to take Symbol of Pain loot this scenario.
Any thoughts on strategy? I was thinking, does it make sense to prioritize emptying out 1 location first (Altar of Riddles maybe?) to use to store our win condition cards. Then we can spread out and hunt the Elusive Knowledges.
Although, something seems off with the setup instructions. It seems like there should be a stack of 2 loot + 5 Elusive Knowledges, but there are only 6 locations. Are we missing a location?
I just posted an update with the henchman and locations. When the location are not build, the site does not give information on how many card of each type will be in.
I’ve put loot indicated in the tracker sheet out of the box.
