Due to the redundancy of this guide given the fact that all of this information is more beautifully presented elsewhere, it is no longer being updated. Thank you to everyone who used this guide while it was active!

This guide only tracks type of skill (Confusion, Heal, Paralyze, Poison, Sleep, Status Heal, and Wither) and the top stats. If you'd like to compare the stats and skills side by side, I'm maintaining a Kindred Comparison Chart. Please let me know if any of the data is incorrect!

If you were looking for a list of the skills that each kin obtains and the skill damage ranges, please visit His Kuren's Lake Kindred Skill Guide.

Kin Skill Type by Skill

If I had to tier my priorities, I would probably place them as such:

Offensive Kin
1) Promising stat allocation. (High Damage)
2) Powerful skills.
3) Able to apply Sleep/Paralysis.
4) Able to apply Psychosis.
5) Able to apply Poison.
6) Able to apply Wither.

Defensive Kin
1) Promising stat allocation. (High Health, Resist, Magic)
2) Able to apply Sleep/Paralysis.
3) Powerful skills.
4) Able to apply Psychosis.
5) Able to apply Poison.
6) Able to apply Wither.

Healing is very unique and a nice bonus to me, so I wouldn't put it on my priorities just yet.

Thank you for sharing! This sounds like a good strategy when deciding which kin to level...might have to adopt it myself! biggrin

[Faerdin Eilrua]

I'm happy I could help at all! I haven't been playing the game for terribly long, but I think that -- after a while -- I've figured things out a bit and can decide by looking at a Kin's stats whether it's really for me or not.

I know I didn't factor it in, but a lot of the Kin in this game have artwork inspiring enough that the visual appeal alone is enough to make me want one. That's part of the reason why my favorites are the Night Myotistrike, Cabochomp, and Phantom Stagony. They're all in varying tiers and none of them are necessarily the best (Though the Myotistrike has very powerful attacks, and the Stagony is great, all-around player), but their artwork is just breathtaking. smile

Aesthetic is definitely a part of the appeal of the kin as well - if you don't like the artwork and animation, it will be hard to stick with a pet long enough to level it! :3

[Sinfulcraft]

I have skill data!

Kin: Pegacorn Fluff
Skill Type: Sleep
Screenshot (optional): No screenshot as my friend is the one leveling hers up.
Her's is 36 currently and it has nothing but sleep inducing skills.

Also apologies for double posting x-x

Thank you so very much! emotion_hug

Also, am I correct about Ember - just Wither skills, or are there any others? surprised

Do they also have Confusion? I saw that listed somewhere but wasn't sure.

[Sinfulcraft]

Salathielly

Happy to be of help! I'll be coming back here if I get any new information~
So far Ember does have Wither skills. My friend's is at 10, mine is still 1, but I'm going to start working on her today. If either of us come across any different skill types, I'll let you know~

[Sinfulcraft]

Salathielly

Yes it does, I didn't include it since you already had it listed. ^^
