Cauldron isn't tied to gaining Cauldrons, so it doesn't empty its own pile, just the Curses, and it's not even great at emptying those. But it's a {{Card|Silver}} with a [[+Buy]] so it doesn't have to always Curse them. And it ties into the when-gain theme, being better with cards like {{Card|Border Village}}. | <p>Cauldron isn't tied to gaining Cauldrons, so it doesn't empty its own pile, just the Curses, and it's not even great at emptying those.

Cauldron is a Treasure-Attack card from Hinterlands (Second Edition). It is a curser that only attacks if you can gain three Action cards on the turn when you play it; and it helpfully provides +Buy to help you get there.
