The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Bhikkhunīs live by the Vinaya, a set of monastic rules and ethical precepts.
- The total of codes of conduct prescribed for nuns amounts to either 311, 348, or 364.
- Until recently, the lineages of female monastics only remained in Mahayana Buddhism and thus were prevalent in countries such as China, Korea, Taiwan, Japan, and Vietnam, while a few women have taken the full monastic vows in the Theravada and Vajrayana schools.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Bhikkhunī article was read about 51,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 84 and blocks with 94: each hit it takes is cut by 38 %.
How to get Bhikkhunī
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
