Hey, on R3 it’s says 2nd choice but it’s actually the 4th choice.
For rank 5, the last option “you need a new strategy” gives +3
3th rank , 3rd choice “Let’s save her.” will give +3
8th rank sorry
5th rank , 3rd choice ” you need a new strategy” will give +3
From rank 4 and onwards they are wrong and don’t even make sense….
Hi sorry about that! It must’ve mixed with the other arcana. But I’ve updated and fixed it! ????
Hope it helps ????
