The final decision in *Avowed's* Heart of Valor quest presents players with a morally complex choice regarding Keipo and the Leviathan Heart. After discovering Keipo's hidden suffering from Dreamscourge and his tragic past with partner Umpara, multiple narrative paths emerge based on your dialogue selections.
Rewards for Each Decision Path
If You Give Keipo the Leviathan Heart
Choosing to honor Keipo's request grants you Umpara's Spear - a powerful exceptional weapon that belonged to his deceased partner. This polearm features:
| Physical Damage | 88 |
| Physical Damage | 84 |
| Stamina Cost | 13 |
| Critical Hit Chance | 6% |
| Special Ability | Deadly Mechanism: Power Attacks launch poison dart |
| Special Ability | Strike the Heart: +25% Critical Hit Damage |
If You Keep the Leviathan Heart
Refusing Keipo's request while making correct dialogue choices rewards you with:
- The complete Stormdancer armor set (detailed below)
- The option to keep the Heart as a trinket (+20% Attack Damage with health drain)
| Armor Piece | Key Attributes |
| Stormdancer's Scale | 15% damage reduction, Shock resistance |
| Stormdancer Gloves | +10% casting speed, Shock damage bonus |
| Stormdancer Boots | Elemental resistance, Shock boosts |
| Stormdancer Ring | +10% Shock damage |
Optimal Dialogue Path
To obtain all rewards while preserving community morale:
- With Keipo:
- "We need to talk. Now."
- "Come clean about wanting to end your life"
- "I can't give you the heart"
- Only reveal Umpara's fate last
- With Chiko:
- Admit you have the Heart
- Explain Keipo's true condition
- Stress you prevented his suicide
This approach nets you the spear, armor set, and Heart trinket while keeping Thirdborn's hopes intact. Choosing alternative routes forces you to either miss gear or reveal painful truths to the community.
For players seeking to collect all possible rewards while maintaining narrative integrity, withholding the Heart while carefully navigating conversations proves the optimal solution.
