    Trait isn't a type of card, but boost is. Did you want the card to be a trait? Since it isn't currently.

    How about like this:

    Life Cycle. Priest Card.
    Give the target a Bud Strike.

    Bud Strike
    When Bud Strike is used, attach it to yourself. Duration 1. When this card would expire, create a Sapling Strike (Short Plant) in your hand.

    Sapling Strike (Short Plant Strike)
    When Sapling Strike is used, attach it to yourself. Duration 1. When this card would expire, create a Tree Bash (Long Plant Strike) in your hand.

    Tree Bash (Long Plant Strike)
    When Tree Bash is used, attach it to yourself. Duration 1. When this card would expire, create an Elder Tree Bash (Spiked Plant) In your hand

    Elder Tree Bash (Spiked Plant Strike)
    When Elder Tree Bash is used, attach it to yourself. Duration 2. When this card would expire, create a Bud Strike and put it in your hand.

    Also:
    Bud Strike:
    3 damage 1 range

    Sapling Strike:
    5 Damage 1 range

    Tree Bash:
    7 damage range 2

    Elder Tree Bash:
    9 damage range 2.

    And an item to pair with it, the only item for these cards.

    Archdruid's Club of Rooting:
    Entangling Roots, Entangling Roots, Entangling Roots, Bud Strike, Bud Strike, Combustible. 2 Blue Tokens. Divine Weapon. Level Unknown. Legendary.

    Please avoid using the word "Bash"(Bruiser) on cards that don't push the target.

    I suggest you add replace "and create a random Shapechanger Hide card and put it in your hand." with "and create a random Shapechanger Hide card, put it in your hand, and reveal it." Also I suggest trying to balance lower (see Resistant Hide) those armor values

    This would probably be wizard armors, so you're right that the values should be lower. I'm editing them.

    I don't agree the armor shoud be revealed. Then the opponent could just wait a turn before attacking.

    Wouldn't you agree that it's too strong, then? That means the opponent's attacks are invalidated for the whole round. If the armor is not revealed they could even lose an attack to the hide on top of immunity, which is probably too good (card advantage AND immunity). Also, what is the basis of the type distribution and armor value?

    Keep in mind also that with the way it's phrased, the hide can create an identical hide card in hand and it's not revealed. That means the opponent always risks running an attack into Immunity every round, which is ridiculous considering that we only have cards that will make the opponent lose an attack to immunity once (Resistant Hide, Grounding Plates, and Toughness) or grant immunity afterward (Adaptable).

    More concerning is that it's difficult for warriors to deal with this armor if you use a 4+ roll like Resistant Hide. Armor proc equivalent to Reliable Hide Armor would be more reasonable so that Sundering Strike could always deal with it.

    What if there was five shapechanger hides? Then there would only be a 1 in 5 chance of stopping an attack. Does not seem too powerful to me.

    Confused
    Handicap, Tar Quality
    Play Effect: 'Trait. Attach to self, Duration 2.'
    Reaction: 'When you play a card that targets a character, target a random character instead. Saving Roll.' (Roll 2+)
     
  17. timeracers

    timeracers Guild Leader

    Roll 2+? that's 5/6 chance of saving from the effect.
     
  18. adajon

    adajon Thaumaturge

    Yes, I know. But think of how many cards you play that target a character - attacks, heals, utilities, etc. Now think of the disastrous consequences that could occur from targeting the wrong character - healing an enemy, firing a Mega Laser at an ally, casting Impenetrable Nimbus on the wrong character. So many cards could be wasted, which is why I think the chance of the handicap triggering should be low.
     
  19. timeracers

    timeracers Guild Leader

    But doesn't this follow normal targeting rules making it so you can bash allies that are 3 spaces away or nimbus enemy characters that are out of sight.
     
  20. adajon

    adajon Thaumaturge

    What I meant by 'target a random character' was 'target a random character that you still could have otherwise targeted'. For example, if a warrior with this handicap is adjacent to only one enemy and the handicap triggers when she plays, for example, Bludgeon, it wouldn't do anything. But if a priest had line of sight to every character and he played Greater Heal, it would affect any of them. Do you have a suggestion for how I could word this more concisely?
