Splendour of the Raptor < Superiority

Now, this is just a small thing I noticed, but Splendour of the Raptor, as it is, is weaker then Superiority, despite the fact that both are great shifts. Splendor of the Raptor grants +8 to stats, but Superiority grants +12. If Splendor of the Raptor granted +6 to both stats, it would be worth using when compared to Superiority. Yes, it grants more to those two stats then Superiority grants them, but that's not enough to balance it against it. If it granted something extra, then yeah, it could maybe equal it in power, but currently, it doesn't do enough to be worth using.--YX33A 17:26, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

If you've decided to min-max your character towards a setup where as many abilities as possible are Wisdom- or Charisma- based, you might usually choose Splendour of the Raptor over Superiority. I don't think I have enough Wisdom-based Shifts available at the moment for that to be amazing, though.
However, even assuming that it is an inferior choice, I do not have to improve it: It really doesn't cost you much to learn a Shift (most of the time), so the pain of picking trap options is pretty minimal. --Foxwarrior 01:30, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
