Haul — Pulls in the farthest enemy within 3 tiles, dealing 150% damage and stunning it for 0.6s (+0.2s per star).

150% of its damage · stuns for 0.6–1.2s (longer per star).

Cast at full mana — or as a dying breath if it never got to cast, unless it is stunned.

At three stars: Dragnet — At battle start it also hooks the tiles on either side. Haul pulls the 3 farthest enemies.

How to play it

At battle start, before anything else moves, it hooks whatever stands exactly three tiles ahead and pulls it in, stunned. The plan screen shows the tile it will hook. A hooked Juggernaut, Shade or Javelineer loses its opening move. Avoid hooking a Powderkeg, since its fuse keeps burning at your feet.

Gaffer, of the mere boats. Fishes the mere by day with a gaff and a chain. Throws the hook at the horn, before anyone else moves. Once hooked a Mummer by mistake.

Stars

Drop a duplicate onto the Gaffer, or tap it and choose Upgrade, to star it up. Stars multiply health, damage and the ability's reach. The Gaffer prices its own stars — 2, 2, 8 elixir per step — rather than the default curve.
