Sienna’s Ingredient
Magic has plenty of components that can play in power of Magic, the only problem is that 2 out of the 3 career depend on the Heat level to get some sort of buffs, those Ingredients would necessitate to either still generate heat (meaning you have a 2 mechanic to balance, can be hard) or to use them on a different attack. For simplicity’s sake, the ingredient would be used for a Special Attack, while the heat would be used for the normal/charged attacks
Those ingredients are often fuel for the flames (Coal, wood, oil, oddly enough not blackpowder) or or things that keep the flames in places (Ovenstone, Wrought Iron) and Aqshy’s symbol, a key (Ksy in Black Tongue)
Eshin Assassin
Eshin assassins appearing as a Warboss (Monster replacement/analogue)
Would use 3 blades (1 in each hand and a caudal blade), and smoke bombs to disengage, in place of being a disabler, it would be a monster with high mobility, but lower stagger, moving away from the U5 if it’s taking damage too fast, the smoke bomb can also serve as a line breaker in case the U5 use too much ranged attack upon him
Kruber’s Cavalry Pistol and Saber/Sword
As a melee weapon, is basically a Rapier and pistol, but with a heavier move set, using a heavier pistol, from the Cavalry regiments than Saltzpyre’s duelling pistol.
Since the pistol would be stronger, it would have a ammo pool, and a longer reload timer to compensate. The ranged attack as always would be attached to the Special Attack
Possible Implementation:
Possible Stat Implementation:
- Ammo: 18 (internal reload: at 1.5s, work with any reload traits)
- Block Angle: 90°
- Block Cost: 0.6 - 2.0 (Just a bit higher than the normal sword)
- Push Radius/Cost: 2.5/2
- Stamina: 6
- Dodge Count/Distance: 3/+15%
Traits
Since the Cav. Pistol and Sword would be in certain ways a ranged weapon and a melee weapon, it would have 1 ranged traits that can also be used:
- Conservative Shooter: that way there only the ranged attack that can proc it
Attack pattern
- Light attack chain make use of the weight of the Blade, using it to hack and slash horizontally and vertically (Left to right, right to left, overhead)
- Heavy, use the weight and the point for single target attacks (Overhead, Heavy left to right)
- Push with both pistol and sword; push attack as a Crossguard smash (high stagger)
- Special attack: Shoot with the pistol (Close range, quite precise)
- Special attack: If reloading, pistol whip (isn’t really a practical but it’s fun)
Next week (if work allow it)
- Dawi Runes
- Alchemical Bullets
- Forsaken and Anointed
