Pael's Tears

Pael's Tears is a Boss relic in Slay the Spire 2 that draws 1 card whenever you lose HP. This relic converts damage taken into card advantage, providing additional draws that help you respond to threats and maintain momentum even when taking hits.

The draw trigger activates on every instance of HP loss, whether from enemy attacks, self-damage cards, or event effects. In fights where you take multiple hits, Pael's Tears generates significant extra draw that keeps your hand full and your options open. This is especially valuable against enemies with multi-hit attacks, where each hit triggers a separate draw.

Pael's Tears is part of the Pael's relic series and synergizes with self-damage effects like Offering, Brutality, and Hemokinesis, which trigger the draw intentionally. It is a natural fit for aggressive builds that accept some damage in exchange for offensive power. The relic is less valuable in highly defensive builds that rarely take damage, as the trigger condition is never met. For builds that can leverage the extra draws and tolerate HP loss, Pael's Tears provides excellent card flow.
