Build around a purpose
At night, supernatural abilities can change movement, control, and combat options. Select a power because it solves a repeated obstacle, not merely because its description promises more damage. Test its cost, range, and recovery against the enemy types you actually face.
Treat corruption as narrative state
Corruption-related claims can blend mechanics with story consequences. Verify the current interface and quest result before repeating a community rule as fact. Keep a save before irreversible choices, and label any build that depends on a specific moral or narrative route.
