Daniela Reyes Strategy Tips

Daniela is a powerhouse fighter who excels at taking hits from enemies and retaliating using her ability. In order to maximize her damage output, you’ll want to play assets that absorb damage and horror from enemy attacks. Mulligan for resource generators like Logan Hastings or Emergency Cache to pay for Daniela’s expensive arsenal.

As a Guardian, many of Daniela’s cards require her to take hits and defeat enemies. To prepare yourself, grab a weapon and a means to soak (and heal) more damage from enemies as early as possible. Use Right Tool for the Job to dig for Daniela's Wrench or another weapon such as Machete or the M1911. Assets that heal or may be assigned damage such as Bodyguard, Resilience, and Bandages will also help keep Daniela fighting fit!

Although Daniela may struggle to find clues, events such as "Look what I found!" allow her to fail forward, while Scene of the Crime gives her a means to easily discover clues from higher shroud locations (provided there is an enemy present).

Be mindful of the amount of horror Daniela takes, as this can easily take her out of the game and saddle her with unwanted mental trauma. Should Daniela put herself In Harm's Way, an ally such as Aleksey Saburov can make all the difference.

Upgrading Daniela Reyes

As you play through the campaign and collect experience, consider how you would like to play Daniela and upgrade your deck accordingly. A simple first upgrade would be to purchase Bodyguard (2), which deals extra damage on defeat. If you want to have more than one ally out at once, Charisma is always a good purchase. For those that want to play the hero, Counterattack can cancel a decisive enemy strike if played at the right time. And if you really just want to deal raw damage, Sledgehammer (3) and Winchester Model 12 both deal extra damage with a sizeable combat boost.

After considering all the options available to you, think about your deck and how you like to play, before you spend the experience on the options that best suit your style!
