Looks bad, but they are not that terrible.

Nobody complained about this card. OMG I personally hate it. Playing just core set, I many times struggled with it's threat level, and if I go into locations lock and have 2 or 3 and one active... I've lost the game in this fashion some many times already.

Sneak attack or Stand and fight one simple Snowborn Scout at the end of the quest phase and bam, it's gone before resolving questing.
Messes up your questing until you travel there. I imagine it smells as well.
