Locking in Core Sajan using the Monk class deck and Ultimate Equipment.

I have a boon that lets me visit the Sunburst market in addition to another trader. I'm applying a boon that lets me take Blackjack for my role. I'm applying a boon that lets me add Shining Wayfinder to my deck.

I think my deck handler is set so anyone can view it.

I'm here chosen ranged to go with alchemy

Please list the following, assuming this is not a replay:

Taking power feat Or any from "When you suffer Combat (☐ or any) damage, reduce it by 1." 2 HP remain.

I banished quite a few cards, so will have to perform some deck surgery when I get a chance.

1st xp at tier 2.

Still planning to take loot: Scarab Buckler and Tablet of Languages Lost.
Still planning to visit Hoppert.

Upgrades:
Blessing 2: 1d1 ⇒ 1 I'd use this on a Blessing 1 upgrade, so deferring to others.

My blessing 2 option is Norborgers shadow which is good but not standout

(in other words Sticking my hand up for Blessing 2 but willing to concede if someone has better option)

if all equally good 1d1000 ⇒ 995 but let meli have blessing 1

spend hero point on dex +1 Visit Spell trader Unless someone is heading elsewhere

Actually I'm struggling a bit in combat so I'll take skill feat +1 to dexterity instead.
