Acquisition
Ancient relic obtained as a choice from Tezcatlar (Act 2). One of the options presented when you meet Tezcatlar in Act 2.
Rating
Pumpkin Candle is Tezcatlar's Ancient relic that grants +1 energy every turn for Act 2 only. While Act 2 lasts, it's an extraordinarily strong energy source, providing huge advantages in elites and the Act 2 boss. But the moment you enter Act 3 the effect vanishes entirely, so there's no permanent payoff. Ideal usage is as a springboard: actively hunt Act 2 elites for relics and cards to prep for Act 3. Securing another energy source ahead of the candle burning out is critical.
