Actions
Then are the actions described. Each action is separated by a line and is resolved individually. The card shown has the first action set to a melee attack, then two actions which requires rift element in reach to perform. Each action is performed and resolved individually and in order.
Stamina
At the bottom of the card is a number that denotes how much stamina a card requires. The player invests stamina into actions. This card has a rather high stamina and is thus considered hard to perform.
Effects
When the card is spent, the symbols on the bottom of the card is performed. Here things like rifts are created, XP is earned and it also denotes if the card is active or discarded.

Actions in order
This card has four actions, the first is a normal Attack attack, but the two subsequent actions have a rift symbol before a colon, this means you can only perform this action if you are in reach of a rift of the corresponding element. The fourth action follows the third action (shown with a symbol) but also has the comment that it can only be performed if all three attacks were performed. So in this case, if you only have access to a rift, the fourth action can not be performed. The second and third action also has modifiers to its action, the second has a Paralyze modifier, meaning that after the attack has been resolved, this status applies to the target. The third has the symbol, which means you get XP for performing this action.
The fourth action also has and symbols on them, meaning that you will gain 2 and it will be active for the rest of the round, and then the card will be discarded. If this action is not performed, then the card is put into the 5:th position of the cooldown instead. Given the symbol you must perform the fourth action if all three preceeding actions were performed.

You can play a card and elect not to perform any actions, the after-use effects still apply.
