Acquisition
An Ancient relic selected from Vaku in Act 3. One of the options offered when meeting Vaku. Hugely important as a final-Act power spike.
Rating
Brilliant Scarf is Vaku's Ancient relic that zeroes the cost of the 5th card you play each turn. Conditional, but every turn you get a potential free high-cost card, boosting Energy efficiency dramatically. The ideal pattern: play four 0-cost cards, then fire a 2-3 cost card for free.

Synergies
| Card / Relic |
Reason |
| 0-cost card suite |
Four 0-cost plays reliably route into a free 5th card. |
| Draw cards |
Bigger hand makes hitting 5 plays per turn consistent. |
| High-cost cards |
Running a 3-cost as the 5th card nets 3 Energy of value. |
