Relinquish skill - russian translation
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2115865721

At first, skill description has really wierd translation.
How the card works - you get into your ally's deck, select his card and expend selected card.
How the card is described in russian - you get into your ally's deck, select his card and play selected card.

However, beyond translation problem, there is cost problem. You pay 7 AP (including channel) to do nothing but remove one card from ally! Even if you for whatever reason need to remove some card, Relinquish is blatantly overpriced, especially considering that oposite operation costs 2 AP (Spellbinders Exhume) or 1 AP (Cleric's Discipline). If it was playing your ally's card yourself, like buggy translation says, then 7 AP would be at least understandable.

Thanks for bringing this up, we will look into the translation.

The main use of this card is to expend a card in the deck (making your deck leaner in long battles, whereas Exhume and Discipline take an expended card back to let you use it again). However, we agree that the AP cost is too high and will adjust it downwards.

Good. At lower cost it will at least have some usage. In very rare situations like if you desperately need healing, then Pierre can expend Caterine's card for her to restore by Discipline and use. If she has Discipline in hand at the same turn. 1-2 AP from Pierre and 1 AP from Catherine to get spell in hand is at least tolerable. It will be situational but at least usable.

But for 8 total AP Relinquish+Discipline combo is not usable. Even if your ally is going to die, resurrestion spell costs less! As for thinning deck, Relinquish is mostly useless. How many times can you cast this spell in battle. Once? Twice? Removing two cards from deck does not make it much thinner.

However, i see another interesting option - make Relinquish work not on allies but on enemies! 7 AP for removing nastiest atack from boss enemy is justified cost.
