Glow Up ({{hl|edition|Foil}}, {{hl|edition|Holographic}}, and {{hl|edition|Polychrome}} cards appear {{hl|orange|4X}} more often Have at least 5 Joker cards with Foil, Holographic, or Polychrome (or Negative) effect Upgraded Glow Up.png)

Hone is a Voucher that causes Foil ({{chips|+50}} Joker (Foil).png), Holographic ({{mult|+10}} Joker (Holographic).png), and Polychrome ({{xmult|1.5}} Joker (Polychrome).png) cards of all types to appear more often. Polychrome actually appears 3x more often with Hone purchased.

• Hone does not increase the probability of Negative ({{hl|edition|+1}} Joker or Consumable slot Joker (Negative).png) Jokers. Therefore, due to the edition generation mechanism in game, Polychrome ({{xmult|1.5}} Joker (Polychrome).png) Jokers actually appear 3x more often with Hone. More information can be found on Appearance Rates.

• Only playing cards in Standard Packs will be affected by Hone. Those that appear in shop by Illusion ({{hl|orange|Playing cards}} in shop may have an [[Card Modifiers#Enhancements|{{hl|sblue|Enhancement}}]], [[Card Modifiers#Edition|{{hl|edition|Edition}}]], and/or a [[Card Modifiers#Seal|{{hl|orange|Seal}}]] Buy a total of 20 Playing cards from the shop Upgraded Illusion.png) will not.

• Hone can be useful for helping unlock Glow Up ({{hl|edition|Foil}}, {{hl|edition|Holographic}}, and {{hl|edition|Polychrome}} cards appear {{hl|orange|4X}} more often Have at least 5 Joker cards with Foil, Holographic, or Polychrome (or Negative) effect Upgraded Glow Up.png), since having 5 editioned Jokers is required to unlock it.

• Having a strong economy with Jokers like Satellite (Earn {{Money|1}} at end of round per unique {{hl|cyan|Planet}} card used this run Have at least {{Money|400}}. Uncommon Economy N/A (Passive) Satellite.png), Golden Joker (Earn {{Money|4}} at end of round Common Economy N/A (Passive) Golden_Joker.png), Business Card (Played {{hl|orange|face}} cards have a {{hl|green|1 in 2}} chance to give {{Money|2}} when scored Common Economy On Scored Business_Card.png), etc. may be necessary to purchase the enhanced Jokers since their price will be increased.
• Invisible Joker (After {{hl|orange|2}} rounds, sell this card to {{hl|orange|Duplicate}} a random Joker <br> {{currently|{{hl|orange|0}}/2}} <br> {{hl|gray|(Removes [[Negative|{{hl|edition|Negative}}]] from copy)}} Win a run without ever having more than {{hl|orange|4 Jokers}} Rare Effect N/A (Passive) Invisible Joker.png) and Ankh (Create a copy of a random [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Joker}}]], destroy all other Jokers <br> {{hl|gray|(Removes {{hl|edition|Negative}} from copy)}} Available from start. Spectral Ankh.png) can copy the edition of the Jokers (except Negative ({{hl|edition|+1}} Joker or Consumable slot Joker (Negative).png)) making it even more valuable.
• Swashbuckler (Adds the sell value of all other owned [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Jokers}}]] to Mult <br> {{currently|{{mult|+1}}}} Sell a total of {{hl|orange|20}} Joker cards Common Additive Mult Independent Swashbuckler.png) gains more Mult from the enhanced Jokers since they're worth more.
  • This also applies to Temperance (Gives the total sell value of all current [[Jokers]]<br>{{hl|grey|(Max of}} {{hl|orange|{{Money|50}}}}{{hl|grey|)}} Available from start. Tarot Temperance.png), so you can get more money from it.
  • Ceremonial Dagger (When [[Blinds|{{hl|orange|Blind}}]] is selected, destroy [[Jokers|Joker]] to the right and permanently add {{hl|orange|double}} its sell value to this {{hl|red|Mult}} <br> {{currently|{{mult|+0}}}} Uncommon Additive Mult Independent Ceremonial Dagger.png) can also potentially scale faster with the higher value Jokers.
• Clearance Sale (All cards and packs in shop are {{hl|orange|25%}} off Base Clearance Sale.png) and Liquidation (All cards and packs in shop are {{hl|orange|50%}} off Redeem at least 10 Voucher cards in one run Upgraded Liquidation.png) can help with the increased cost of the enhanced Jokers.
  • The Coupon Tag ( Coupon tag.png) can also mitigate this.
  • Note that these vouchers diminish Swashbuckler (Adds the sell value of all other owned [[Jokers|{{hl|orange|Jokers}}]] to Mult <br> {{currently|{{mult|+1}}}} Sell a total of {{hl|orange|20}} Joker cards Common Additive Mult Independent Swashbuckler.png)'s Mult and Temperance (Gives the total sell value of all current [[Jokers]]<br>{{hl|grey|(Max of}} {{hl|orange|{{Money|50}}}}{{hl|grey|)}} Available from start. Tarot Temperance.png)'s Money.
