Tactical Information

The Eagle has some uses for the Lore-master. It is most notable for its Sacrifice skill in Blue-line, which is most helpful on landscape and in dangerous encounters. The Eagle can also assist the Lore-master with tiering up Smouldering Embers. In Yellow-line, its minor ability is helpful at reducing the fellowship's incoming damage, especially when the fellowship is facing heavy dread.
