Kizuami's bonuses appear to be all over the place at first, but what joins them together is a focus on party play. Charisma allows for a player to control more companions and summons, speed helps to offset the penalty for having too many allies, memorisation provides the stocks you'll be needing to cast party-wide spells, and control magic helps prevent your spells from hitting your entourage. The nether and holy resistances are more of a head-scratcher: while nether-element damage is common on undead creatures, almost nothing in the game uses holy-element damage against the player. However, enemies bearing Kizuami's faith will be resistant to holy-element spells used by the player, where almost no monsters in the game innately resist holy, either. | Kizuami's bonuses appear to be all over the place at first, but what joins them together is a focus on party play.

It's of note that with Kizuami's addition, Lulwy and Ehekatl are no longer the only Ylvan | It's of note that with Kizuami's addition, Lulwy and Ehekatl are no longer the only Ylvan deities who grant speed and luck; however, Kizuami only grants speed and luck at about half the rate, so those seeking to be specialists in each stats should stick to these goddesses. Memorisation is useful to any spellcaster, but control magic is more situational with the ride and host actions allowing you to take up to two pets with you into your tile where there's no chance of your own spells hitting them. | ||
The random nature of Kizuami's Trick makes it unpredictable; you might get the effects that are perfect for the situation, or they might all be irrelevant. On average, you'll get one or two useful buffs out of it. | The random nature of Kizuami's Trick makes it unpredictable; you might get the effects that are perfect for the situation, or they might all be irrelevant.

Gaining favour with Kizuami can be tricky, as his offerings are less readily available than some of the other gods. If you don't mind being a criminal, harvesting rice from Mifu Village is an option; Another option is to duplicate a lot of rice at '''[[Elin:Kettle|Kettle]]'''<nowiki/>'s duplicating store, collect rock salt from the sea and beaches, and mass produce instant noodles. Although replicas cannot be offered as they are, dishes made from replicated rice can be offered with no problem. In addition to collecting Kizuami's favorite offerings, you should also use other means to gain favor, such as offering heavy meat and altar conversion. | Gaining favour with Kizuami can be tricky, as his offerings are less readily available than some of the other gods.
