Impackt: Water & Earth

The Avatar train continues

Blueprints

Sokka’s Outfit is a pretty attractive option for your Rogue-types whilst they level – normally you’d have to wait until T10 to gain access to armour with a good health secondary. The doublet requirement can not be removed unfortunately, though hey at least it only calls for a common.

From a crafting perspective

Unusual for a mace in that it requires jewels instead of ether, Sokka’s club is a welcome addition to the crafting line because of that – it’s a lot easier to fit into a rotation with it using the standard wood pairings. You can lower the jewel requirement to 15 with ascensions making it a pretty cheap craft as well.

From a meta perspective

It’s the new best-in-slot mace replacing the Gaia Maul¹.

Superior Pack

For crafting purposes the Kyoshi Warrior Armor is a respectable tier 7 – it only calls for tier 1 resources, foregoing the usual uncommon requirement. From an equipment perspective though it loses out to the Warlord Plate (another tier 7 Heavy Armor that has more defence and boosts health.)

From a crafting perspective

The Kyoshi Warrior Fan keeps the main trait of the dagger line and only calls for iron and steel. The ascension milestones are a bit on the lacklustre side with 2 of them being “-1 Precious Shell”. It’s a cheap craft for the metal line, just nothing really special about it.

From a meta perspective

I’ll be honest I was sorely tempted to just leave it at that

The Kyoshi Warrior Fan is the new best-in-slot dagger, meaning a very quick farewell to Nightwing Bolt². It boasts more attack (an usually high value for the dagger line at 560 which brings it on par with other weapon lines in the tier³.

This means it does manage to avoid the normal problems daggers have (lack of power), however it’s not enough to change the scenario that I wrote in the Spooktober review:

Scenarios where you should consider using Nightwing Bolt Kyoshi Warrior Fan

• You’ve rolled Warlord on a Thief/Trickster.
• You rolled Dagger Mastery and decided you really want to keep it.

Scenarios where you should not consider using Nightwing Bolt Kyoshi Warrior Fan

• Anything that wasn’t covered by the above 2 bullet points. It’s not going to be winning any blanket “oh wow this is amazing you should totally use it” awards because the dagger-wielding classes already possess much better options.

Summary

• Sokka’s Outfit offers a cool option for Rogue-types when levelling though has an unremovable pre-craft.
• Sokka’s Mace is the new best mace but doesn’t really have a place in the meta.
• Kyoshi Warrior Armor offers a cheap t7 crafting option but pales against its compatriots in the same tier.
• Kyoshi Warrior Fan is the new best-in-slot dagger, though it comes at the cost of replacing the dagger from 4 weeks ago.
• Some welcome greenery for the garden with a potential food source.
