Why do they persist in making so many multiplayer-only cards? As a mainly Solo player, I'm underwhelmed by the player cards in this cycle so far.

Because encouraging multi-player interaction is key to the success of the multiplayer game.

I think the cantrip mechanic on this card is really welcome - it enables a wider variety of minor effects (like this one).

It's not really clear to me why this needs to be attached to a hero, since the effect is global.

Because Attachments are the only non-character "permanents" that exist thus far.

Has anyone else abused the Wandering Took with Song of Earendil brokenness? It seems too good to be within the rules unless I have missed some errata.
