Exanimate directly affects Punish, Acid Rain, Sepsis, Lash’s Gift skills.

You’ll also be able to remove negative tokens and set yourself up for powerful attacks with Crit tokens. This path is best played in the front 2 ranks and allows you to hit enemies with extra blight when your health is low. Sacrifice your health for greater power! The Exanimate path allows the Flagellant to focus on greater DOT damage. 'Let me but sample the bitter taste of death' If you’re less interested in using Sepsis, the Searing Scripture trinket can still be useful for clearing up negative tokens you acquire via Lash’s Gift or Endure while the Flagellant is busy with other actions. Just be careful when throwing Taunt tokens around as those will affect the targeting options of your other Heroes. In moments of desperation, you could even steal Stun from a Hero and sacrifice the Flagellant’s next turn (or clear it with a Vestal’s Ministration). The negative tokens stolen from other Heroes, or those picked up while under fire during More! MORE!, can then be passed along to the enemy via Sepsis. If the Leper is a mainstay in your party lineup, the Maniac can still pair well with him by using Lash’s Gift to steal his Blind tokens, keeping him free to deal damage. Conversely, Maniacs can work well with ranged Heroes such as the Grave Robber or Highwayman, as the repositioned monster is often well-placed for a stunning Pistol Shot or CRIT Thrown Dagger. While Punish can apply Combo to a target, the knockback effect will often leave them beyond the reach of melee characters that would make use of it, such as the Hellion or Leper. The Maniac path may not provide direct buffs or positive tokens to other Heroes but it still packs some potent healing and control options as a support unit or tank as skills like Deathless, Undying, and More! MORE! are unchanged from Wanderer. Maniac directly affects the following skills: Punish, Acid Rain, Sepsis, Lash’s Gift. This path will also allow you to take negative tokens from your team and pass them along to enemies. This hero path specializes in debuffs and disrupting enemy abilities, allowing you to knockback targets, and apply Weak instead of Blight.

The Maniac Flagellant can work just as well positioned towards the back of his party as he does in the front. Trade blight for debuffs! The Maniac path provides the Flagellant with a series of abilities that allow for flexible positioning. The Flagellant 'Zealotry - an undying blight upon the soul.'
