Warrior skill · aims at one target · evolves into Gallows Chain

Rattlechain

Lashes a chain at the nearest elite or foe; it leaps on to the foes beside it. It aims itself at the nearest elite in range, or the nearest monster when there is no elite.

Play

A level-up offers it as one of three cards.

Rank by rank

A level-up card offers a skill you do not have while one of your 6 slots is free, or the next rank of one you have, up to rank 5. These are the lines the card shows:

At every rank: Range 6.5 tiles.

Evolution: Gallows Chain

Rank 5 + Quick Hands → Gallows Chain. Hold Rattlechain at rank 5 and any rank of Quick Hands, and the next level-up’s first card is the evolution, drawn in gold. The chain will not stop: it leaps on to three more foes.
