fallen, Kincaid's reward choices includes segmented knives with 0 parry, while most knives nearing those performances have 4. Intentional or oversight? (Not that it really matters, since the other blade has a higher parry). FWIW, Kincaid's choice is very very hard compared to Vraes. Mostly because he's using the Heartbeats of Summer and ignoring other elemental damages.

Mostly because he's using the Heartbeats of Summer and ignoring other elemental damages. Kincaid does not gain a Parry bonus for using Throwing Knives. Therefore, for Kincaid effectively all Throwing Knives have 0 Parry. Only Tamilin gains the Parry bonus, as she holds them in her primary hand. Only Kincaid can use the Throwing Knives granted by the smith. So therefore, it seemed best to me to leave their Parry at 0. |

I went for the 2 AP dex blade....but now that I think about it the armor might have been better. Kincaid is my tank, with the immense amount of parry and dodge he can receive, so that extra +3 would have been great.

I don't know what to pick for Kincaid. Had to quit the game to take time to think about it. I'm leaning towards the throwing knives though because my Kincaid rarely uses his blade. The armor is a huge upgrade to what I have, but I want the elemental damage from the weapons to go along with Fyona's strickening. Looks like I just wrote my way to a decision.  |

I also had a hard time choosing. The armor is fantastic, with the benefit of applying its crit and SP drain to all attacks. In the end I chose the 1 AP blade though because of its high parry value and my strickening Fyona. If I did not have Fyona then I am sure I would have gone with the armor. Question: Will Vincent's relics get a little broader in choice? I would have loved a 1 AP blade option for him.

If you've been to the CoD, you remember the request the sorcerer made? "Come back later." I am about to open a Patreon poll to source suggestions for Kjartan and Kyera's items. |
