Gloomhaven Enhancement guide

- August 24, 2020

Minor spoilers ahead!! While the existence of Gloomhaven enhancements is not a spoiler, how and when you get access to them is. The goal of the this guide is to provide some guidance and options on selecting your enhancements. If you haven't got access to enhancements yet, I recommend you go back to your game until you eventually unlock it. Enhancements are also very expensive!

This guide is to give some general advice on choosing your enhancements and what cards to improve. It's sticker time!

Plus the Savvas Cragheart has a cool backstory. Exiled and had his chest cavity shattered by his people for being inadequate, he goes around slamming rocks at monsters. Damn, talk about a rocky upbringing! Cragheart problem solving: Make rock, throw rock, destroy rock.

Long resting is obviously preferable if you can afford to spend the turn doing so. But is the loss of momentum worth it? And with such dangerous enemies around you, how can you afford to long rest? Scoundrel needs a nap When can you rest? You can only rest once you have at least 2 cards in your discard pile. Pg 17 of the rulebook: The rest action can only be taken if a player has two or more cards in his or her discard pile, and a rest action always results in losing one of the discarded cards. This means you can't simply rest, then immediately rest again to try exhaust yourself (for battle goals or personal quests). You need to play som
