Defeating them is only one of the options available, but it is critical for True Solo investigators to be able to at least defeat 6-10 HP worth of enemies. You can target the lower end if your investigator is very good at dealing with enemies otherwise, and should shoot for even higher than 10HP if your only way to manage enemies is to defeat them.<\/p><p>The reason is that not being able to do so will outright loose some of the scenarios with a boss. In the other scenarios, it can be used to target VP enemies, or enemies that are hard to manage otherwise.<\/p><p>The common thing about the cards presented are that they are either costly, with a limited use, or a bit janky. This means that to achieve the 6-10 HP goal, the investigator will have to use a fair amount of resources and deck space.<\/p><p>During the game, investigators have to be very mindful of what they have in their deck, and use their resources carefully. Spending a <i>Spectral Razor<\/i> on the first 2\/2\/2 enemy that pop out of the encounter deck might leave them without options when the hard enemies show up.<\/p><p>Unfortunately, because of this scarcity, the variance for investigators with a low fight stat is usually higher. Missing a <i>Backstab\u00a0<\/i>or a 4 damage <em>&#8220;I&#8217;ve got a plan&#8221;\u00a0<\/em>can lose you a scenario, it&#8217;s just something you have to accept.
