I've been working on beating Wrath and Ruin solo for a couple weeks now and this is the deck that I finally beat it with. You can see the play through here on YouTube.

This is a Haldan deck with Súlien as a low threat Scout hero and Gandalf to help with early card draw and defense. I have a lot of 1x cards in here as none of them are absolutely crucial but each piece helps strengthen the whole.

Helpful pieces for Wrath and Ruin and other combos include:

This deck is specifically customized for solo Wrath and Ruin but it is pretty strong and viable for other quests and even multiplayer as well. Some of the sideboard cards like the Dunedain Pathfinder are helpful in quests that don't serve up so many locations like Wrath and Ruin.

you can attach woodmans clearing only during the planning phase, its an attachement, so, reforging it during questphase is not of special use.

beside that, nice herosetup.

would add 1 shadowfax

Reforged is just an action so you can play it in any action window. @doomguard Unless I’m missing something!

hm, perhaps you are right. that makes that event more powerfull as i thought...

usually you can play an attachement only in the planning phase does this event cancel that?

i dont know. but a good question. if it is similar to stand and fight it should work every time you have actionwindow.

but the wording on reforged is "play" (not put). and play is usally in the questphase. on the other side, with thranduil you can "play" in the combatphase.

now i am not sure ^^

I am sure. :) @doomguard

Nov 24, 2020 doomguard 1963

and why different wording on stand and fight and reforged?

Nov 24, 2020 The BGamerJoe 4845

That I don’t know. I guess because one is core set and one is 8 years into the game?

The wording difference between "play" and "put in play" is wheter you are paying the card cost or not. The difference in wording between Stand and Fight and Reforged can be probably due to how the game design advanced, as mentioned by @The BGamerJoe.

Anyway yes, you can use Reforged to play attachments outside of the Planning Phase, that's one of the card's great strenghts (we often use it to drop a Secret Vigil during the combat phase or some location attachments during the quest phase). I have seen Caleb play the card like that with a Woodman deck, and he should know :D
