"Dante" event is a worthwhile trade-off

[Peregrin Took]

One of the ice caverns events asks you to take 3 curses to adopt a strong unit later down the line. If you have the means to upgrade him afterwards, Dante can become an absolute monster. Mine had x8 Multistrike with ~30 attack and Quick!

Has anyone else here completed this event and what did you think?

I got it... it's fairly strong allowed me to beat ascendant one at least :) i ended up cloning him after adding some attack on him, then had the artifact that places 4 on one floor...and the artifact to upgrade the robots.. scraped the boss but was my first kill of him on ascendancy 1 after 10 tries

Congrats and good luck with covenant lvl 2!

And I love that artifact that upgrades the train robots. Really powerful.

It won me a cov4 run with Umbra. Started feeding Dante all my attack morsels and it was excellent.

There's another event where you can take a spike or something (two curse cards and an artifact for +1 energy per curse in the deck). It's real nice too if you have a pricey deck or it happens in time to upgrade +draw. I don't know what the other option does.

The one that does 100 damage when you play a curse card is great with Dante as well. His candles trigger it.

If I'm thinking of the right event and the other option is a small robot 1/1 multistrike that adds copies into your deck, after you get 4 of them they all get upgraded into 20/1 multistrike units

Yep they won me a run and I didn't even do it right. I didn't upgrade them before duplicating. The 20 damage boost will tack on above cap if you are patient.
