How Enchantments Work
Enchantments are a brand-new modifier system that applies positive effects directly to your cards. They improve a card's performance (similar to upgrades), unlock combo potential through synergistic effects, and last for the entire run once applied.
The Trade-off
Like everything in the Spire, positive gains come with potential drawbacks. Enchantments may have associated costs or conditions, create deck-building constraints, or require specific strategies to maximize value.
Enchantments vs. Afflictions
Enchantments and Afflictions are two sides of the same coin — both modify cards directly, but from opposite directions.
