The name of this evolution suggests, that it makes the tendons more durable, but less flexible(like most hardened things in RL do), and yet it raises agility. Shouldn't it be called strengthened or reinforced?

Depends what way you look at it, perhaps the problem for vamps isn't the jumping but the landing, in which case hardened tendons would allow for greater jumping, because they can land without injury?

Just a thought... i'm not sure any of this game makes sense if you really stop and analyse it ;-)

Well, I'm a rock climber, and that requires a certain amount of agility and tough tendons are essential, otherwise they'll tear and you'll be in a lot of pain for a long time! (I know people who have ripped them before now)

So I guess it does make sense really.

true, but at the same time hardening tendons sounds like a tradeoff. I just keep thinking that fresh twig is more difficult to break or snap, than old, dried and hardened one.

Now that you mentioned Acheron tough tendons sound very good Smile .

all this talk about breaking tendons makes me want to keep sitting down lol...
personally i like hardened tendons also. not sure what it is about it, just seems to make more sense that its being "hardened" for the better when it comes to muscle movement
