If thats the case shouldnt it be IF bearer has an artifact they can use the get out clause, not if they do not bear it?

LMAO Dain is funny. Im not having a fit but i do obviously think its overpowered. Id sacrifice a few strength any day for exertions. I dont like minions gettting more than terror 1. I personally think it shouldnt be terror X it should just be terror as a set keyword that makes you exert at the start of the skirmish like a rohan horse. Bearing that in mind id limit it to heal twice to gain terror 1. But of course its your mechanism, do what you think best!

This i WILL have a fit about. Even easier condition to meet and could getting wildy out of control. Up cost severely or just limit it to 2 or something.

Can we hold off on a judgment for a second on these two, because there are also quite a few cards and mechanisms that require wraiths to lose their terror, as you’ll see below. Plus, there are only I think 3 minions with base twilight in this set - all others require Nazgul rings or expensive conditions to gain that keyword.

Ill have to see....

Well this doesnt change my judgement as this is still doing exactly what terror does exert companions. Seems pointless to me other than directing the exertions which isnt that useufl for a 3 card combo.

This is much better, no problem with this.

Wow this seems to hard even with the cost. Id up the current cost either in twilight or/and an addtional requirement.

Lots of direct exertion for ? I’d raise the cost...

I’m slightly worried about the burden part.. how much terror can your minions get?

Except that, as lem0n pointed out, you’re just exchanging exertions that the FP player can place with targetted ones.
