Tinkerer

The Tinkerer's balance in base Gloomhaven is very focused around the characters hand size. Due to having such a large hand size the character can be seen as being tanky if your willing to burn cards. My issue with this design is that there are a lot of cards balanced around this characters hand size to harshly. It seems to me the bar for what can be considered a loss cards as you go up in level compared to other characters is slightly lower on this class. Which can lead to some questions as to why the character is balanced around this fact. In this rebalancing of the tinkerer I wanted to make the cards slightly more interesting or powerful to bring all loss cards closer to the loss cards of other classes and give certain double loss cards a non-loss action. Which will lead to a more normalized longevity to this class. I also am under the assumption that the reason why the tinkers summons are slightly behind the curve as losses is because the tinker could very easily have multiple summons out at once for a majority of scenarios due to the fact the tinker is such a good healer.

Trap explanation:
Okay so traps in my opinion are very lackluster when it comes to playing gloom haven because enemies will avoid them and the only way to use them effectively is to block off an area to cause monsters to walk into them to get to you if they’re melee. The biggest issue is that all traps in the game need you to place them in an adjacent empty Hex and they can't affect flying enemies. There Can't be gold in the hex either. So I changed them to a range of 3 so you can feel like they're more viable modeled after a “jaws of the lion” character that has A card that lets you place a 3 damage muddle trap in an empty hex within a range of 3, infuse fire and it's not a burn.
