Hmm...Yeah. Is that the entirety of what the card says? If so, it seems it needs something to make it so you can repeat it on the same card.
Yeah, I suspect that card will get a change. Thankfully, it's an Adventure Deck 6 card, so it won't be seen in Organized Play anytime soon.
Something like "at the start of your turn" would seem appropriate.
That is certainly a notable exploit. We will discuss.
I just spotted this card, and came to see if there was any discussion. I'm interested to see how this one gets ruled. If it's just once per turn, it's really not as good as the Eagle. Perhaps if you had to recharge a card each time you use it?
It still better than an eagle, because not only do you see what is coming, you have a chance to acquire it.
Anything that would let you play it twice without the card in the location change would still leave the exploit in place.
How does the Fortune-Teller post-Bard CD/WotR work?
Since it is only usable at the end of your move step, doesn't the potential exploration it can generate conflict with the "Free initial exploration" which must be taken first?
My understanding is that any bonus exploration gained while you haven't taken your current one is lost, i.e. you can't accumulate extra explorations.
Is this an exception to the "...must be your first exploration for the turn. You may NEVER explore outside of your explore step" rule?
It doesn't generate an exploration, it just makes you encounter the top card of the deck if it matches. Encountering a card is not the same as exploring, so after that encounter is over you still have your free explore to utilize.
Also note for Blessing of Baphomet, which won't give 2 dice during that encounter, but will in the one after that.
Cool thanks. I knew I had to be thinking about it wrong.

But, doesn't Detect Magic have the same language on it (encounter the card, vs. explore)? And I thought it was ruled that that took the place of your free explore, if you played it before your explore phase.

No,Detect Magic never had that ruling.
In fact, the RotR rulebook uses it as an example to demonstrate you can use it when you aren't in your explore step.
If It Isn’t Called Something, It Isn’t That Thing. Detect Magic doesn’t use the word “explore,” so you can play it at times when you can’t explore. Don’t make assumptions—just read the card.
That was added in this FAQ.
