I'm playing on nightmare. group is vraes (full tank) vincent (full lightning spear into eye of the storm) and selen (full pinning shot so far then not sure) and of course kyera. right now I'm lv 7 and I've never tried sacrifice so y not? right now i have put 1 into con, +2 int, +1 conjuring, +4 lore. i have lv 2 heal, lv 2 warders shield, and lv 2 sacrifice. I can spend 30 sp to give another char 30 sp. Right now its kinda nice to keep vincent spamming but i will have to invest even more to do better than break even. If i drop sacrifice i can put all my int points into con and all my lore points into hammers in addition to raising ea or warders shield witch will make my whole team tankier. This could make kyera a legit front liner instead of just standing around. The cost of sacrifice seems too high to me. It would be a great one point wonder but it seems like you have to bend over backward to make it work. If anyone could give some input that would be great especially with experience at higher lvs. FYI I don't mind respecing pre 10 cause yolo... (horrible ironman pun op!)

I'm in love with Sacrifice, and I run it on 90 of my builds for her. NEVER bring it past level 2, however, as it costs 2 AP and takes a huge drop in efficiency. However, if you find you aren't using a ton of SP, Kyera may be of better use elsewhere.

Yeah, I'm here a lot.
Initially it looks good, but once you get into E2, you will need an off tank. Sacrifice with Kyera requires a significant investment in lore, which makes tanking with her difficult at best.
Personally, I would stop Pinning Shot at 5, put a point into DoS, then put a few points into Quicksilver Defense. With time, and careful grooming, she can turn into a switch hitter that can defend herself while dealing decent melee damage.

ok u guys like the skill. (Id be very surprised if the guy who made the game told me one of the talents was trash). Any supporters for melee/tank kyera? also anyone put more than 2 points in sac?

She will never be able to be a true tank, but if you need someone to take a few hits, she can get it done. At max lore, Sac 2 returns 50 SP for about 30 cost, for a single AP. Anywhere past that the talent takes a significant hit in efficiency bc you can only cast it 3 times per turn, whereas Sac 2 can be cast 7 times.

carthaginians - I know Melee-Tank Kyera is not a huge favorite around the forum, but I love the build and I call her Striker when built this way. It is important to make sure you're lining up curses for her so that she will be most effective (Choking Ash, etc).

What madness is this?! Sacrifice is absolutely worth it. Brings camping and pot ing sown or can be used to power an SP hungry murder machine!
