No Iconoclast option for the shard?

[ChompyRiley]

So I picked up the shard after the spawn fight. As you do, yeah? Most people probably do it without thinking. Which I did, even if there's a different scene for leaving it on the ground. But during the scene in your quarters later with the wraiths, why is there no option other than 'pick up the shard (heretical)' and 'get rid of the shard (dogmatic)' wasn't there an option to keep it to hand over to the inquisition (which is somehow the iconoclast option)?

Getting rid of the shard in the quarters scene is the Iconoclast option.

There's a later shard you can get rid of that is more directly marked as Iconoclast, instead of keeping it for yourself (Heretic) or giving it to Hendrix (dogmatic)

It definitely is not. lemme figure out the screenshots, and I'll show you.

Thats because you made the wrong choice on the prior line:

Pick the 'throw the blade away' line and the next bit automatically gets rid of it without a dogmatic choice.

It's the lack of iconoclast choice, not the presence of a dogmatic one.

[Khloros]

Not picking either of the other is still in favor of the one not picked.
However, it should have been 3 optiosn from teh get go.
Keeping it gives you heretic
Saying you are the amster is iconoclast
Getting rid of it is dogmatic.

[ChompyRiley]

Yeah that's kinda what I was thinking.

Its still an iconoclast choice. Lack of points for it doesn't change that. And as mentioned above, getting rid of a later shard in a similar way is absolutely classified as such.

Using the shard as a paper weight in your office should be the Iconoclast one. As littering is not a nice thing to do.

Apparently if you don't pick it up one of your subordinates will give it to you.
Then you will get the choices again, including an Iconoclast one.

You make a fair point. Recycling is about faith in humanity.

I'll have to try that next time. I just have to resist my urge to LOOT EVERYTHING.

I go out of my way to loot all possible containers and bodies. Even when it doesn't make sense. Because I get that dopamine hit of 'ooh, more STUFF"

Yeah I'm one of the richest people in the imperium but I will leave no pocket unchecked.

But on the plus side I'm so powerful that my companions wont comment on my hording for fear of my wrath. Unlike the annoying Starfield companions.

Also because you never know when you'll need another couple items for a shipment to get that sweet gear item. from the vendors.
