-In terms of base stats, Kas has 16 speed versus the 18 of a [[vampire royal]], and possesses stronger physical attacks. As such, he should not be taken lightly - on top of being fairly fast and hitting decently hard, the Sword of Kas can deal fearsome damage even if you have [[poison resistance]], and its various bonuses further augment his already-strong pair of weapon attacks.
