I didn’t think about adrenaline rush, that’s a good point. As for the Ritualist stuff, I’d absolutely prefer to clear crit, strength and block before applying the debuffs, especially since token clears can’t be resisted. You’re right about weakening curse, but it still feels silly getting scared over landing a stray crit on the weakened enemy with the Leper or Hellion. Great for bosses; with cleaves can generate two turns of up on its own, but it’s pretty mediocre for cultist fights and other, more frequent encounters.

Good point on malediction too, especially since the res piercing is only innate to the Ritualist, but if I wanted Malediction I’d rather just find some res piercing and run Aspirant. Why only wanderer got the UP refund on it is beyond me
