It's been reported that certain classes have different interactions with certain curios than other classes.

However, their abilities are not influenced at all by position, and they have no frontline attack like the Bone Courtier's Knife in the Dark, so the only reason to move them is to get them into range of damage dealers.Something often overlooked by new players is that interating with a curio will quite frequently prompt you for an item to use with it, rather than simply operating the curio.įailing to use an item when prompted will typically yield negative results, with some curios having much more dire consequences than others. Like most stress dealers, they should be focused as a priority target, especially with fast heroes who can take them out before they deal stress damage, as stress typically is harder to deal with than health damage. In terms of target priority, it will tend to use Stressful Incantation to focus heroes who are already stressed, with an effective 2x/3x/4x chance depending on difficulty.Ĭultist Acolytes are the prototypical stress dealer-fast, high dodge, but otherwise weak in survivability. Interestingly, Acolytes will never use Stressful Incantation if all 4 heroes have a Virtue. Overall it has a 2x chance to use Stressful Incantation over Eldritch Pull and Push, except on the Acolyte's first turn, where it has a 7x chance. All of their abilities deal stress on Veteran level onward, and Stressful Incantation marks heroes to synergize with the Cultist Brawlers' Rend for the Old Gods. Cultist Acolytes have 3 abilities, Stressful Incantation, Eldritch Pull, and Eldritch Push.
