The Shredder

The Shredder is an amulet for a claw-focused vampire build. It combines claw damage, claw critical chance and critical damage with lower attack stamina cost. Vicho’s changing accessory stock in Svartrau is one place to look for it.

Trade with Vicho and compare the claw bonuses

Visit Vicho’s shop in Altenmarkt at night after completing the warehouse investigation in A Study in Crimson. Check the accessories he currently offers for The Shredder. His stock varies, so use the shop as a source to check rather than planning around a fixed sale on every visit.

The Shredder provides +5% claw critical hit chance, +7.5% claw critical damage and +8% claw damage. Its fourth effect reduces attack stamina cost by 15%. This makes it useful when you spend sustained fights attacking with claws, with the stamina effect supporting a longer attack sequence.

Slasher’s Pendant occupies the same amulet slot and covers the same three claw categories at lower listed values. The Shredder adds the stamina-cost reduction. Corrupted Pendant takes a different approach, offering vampiric cooldown and recovery effects instead of dedicated claw critical bonuses.

Keep the ring slots separate in your comparison. Slicer’s Ring is a ring with claw bonuses and hit-based charge restoration; The Shredder uses the amulet slot. Choose your ring effects around whether your next limitation is charge recovery, stamina or damage.
