New Class i came up with -Brawler- (repost from GS)

Before i get in to it this is not a warrior remix it has some pretty original ideas. it centers around very fast pace combat about either jumping is and getting out or separating mobs from a larger group to finish them off. There is one slower paced archetype about staying in place and defending form all sides.


Main attack: A Punch

Weapon: Gauntlet

Spell 1: Kick (Pretty much halfmoon swipe)

Spell 2: Lunge‍‍ (primary movement spell. Like dash but with less momentum drop of and does single target damage on the enemy hit.

Spell 3: I don't have a name it's just a big punch. Think uppercut damage but knocks enemies backward. or Falco Punch from smash

Spell 4: Backflip: ✨wow 2 movement spells✨ like escape but with very little backward momentum. It can only be performed on or near the ground like escape. Might switch with lunge as spell 2. It's a set up spell for later. Think of a backflip-lunge-punch-backflip combo


General abilities:
-If backflip is canceled smash down to the ground dealing AoE damage


Archetypes:

Void (don't have a name) : it's kinda like shade stepper but less 1 hit damage and more survivability.

-When you use punch enter the voids echo with whatever enemies you hit.

-These enemies will only attack you and you can only damage them no other mobs.

-All other enemies will not be able to see you but other players can still damage the enemies in the void. Enemies take 50% more damage while in this state. FROM ONLY YOU

-It lasts 10 seconds.

-Punching while crouching will exit the void state.

And there is a cool down just like vanish

-Killing enemies in the void will increase its duration by 1 second per kill.


Wind Weaver: if acrobat and battle monk had a child

-Kick turns into a spin kick. that deals damage around the player

-Spin kick eventually will summon a tornado lifting you and any enemies in it off the ground slowly damaging them and hovering you about 5 blocks above where it was cast. if cast mid air the tornado will simply hover.

-After 5 seconds the tornado will fade, lowering everything in it to the base of where it was cast.

-Crouching while casting spin kick will not summon a tornado.

-Enemies are slowed in the tornado.

If another tornado is cast the other will instantly start to fade with only about a second left.

-Punch kb is increased.

-If punch is cast in or at the tornado send the tornado in that direction

-Backflip will hover you mid air at the peak of its verticality for a short duration.

-Backflip can be performed mid air.

If crouching while backflipping bring the enemies in front of you with you. they do not hover with you.


Fire: Aoe burn + big number

-Your main attack inflicts burn. (just like flaming uppercut)

-Kick turns into a fiery stomp that deals damage in a cone shape and has a 5 block range and inflicts burn.

-Lunge will now make a magma pack 3 blocks wide that inflicts burn to any mobs on top + more damage if they are actively on top of it.

-Burn damage does AoE around the enemy. allowing burn damage to stack if 2 burning enemies are next to each other

-Burn spreads if an enemy is next to a burning one for 2 seconds.

-Backflips smash down will consume all of the burn from enemies instantly doing 150% of the remaining burn damage instantly. Its AoE has a radius of 3 or 2.5 blocks.

-Punch will consume all of magma patches and the burn from nearby enemies and focus it all onto the enemies being hit. Aoe 5 block radius for burn consumption.


Bonus (might replace void)

Earth: high damage slow attacks but applies slow and stunning to make up for it.


-Punch will be directed towards the ground making the ground shake dealing damage in a 3 block radius and stunning enemies.

-Kick now sends up a wall of earth sending enemies flying. The wall will stay active for 10 seconds or until its health is depleted. Your max walls is 2 with a cool down between when they can be cast.

-Hitting an earth wall with punch will send its rocks flying in that direction dealing damage to enemies they hit and stunning them

-Punches shake will now pulse 3 times with decreased damage.

-Backflip is so strong it breaks the ground bringing 3 rocks with you. Using your main attack while still airborne will launch throw 1 rock per attack.

-When an enemy is stunned it takes extra damage.

-Lunge will no longer move you and instead summon a mini ridable grootslang that will charge at enemies.

-Your grootslang will drag enemies toward you.


There's my idea. Void needs to be flushed out a bit more. Fire is like garbage for bosses. But wind weaver kinda saves fire in bosses. I can see fire doing LI okay because of the summons of most bosses and punch can still consume magma patches for extra damage. I also need some way to get more enemies from outside of the voids echo into it. Earth is okay and needs to be flushed out a bit too. Open to ideas.


I tried to theme each archetype off of some race/area. so void is the void/darkness, air is the avos, earth is the grootslang, and fire is the doguns.

Lemme know what you think

 

I skimmed over it, reading the important bits to give me an idea of the class/archetypes, and this is kinda cool. I wasn't expecting it to actually have super original ideas, as the current classes have a lot of bases covered, but you proved me wrong. Shame that the team isn't taking class suggestions.
I'd love to see this fleshed out, with a proper ability tree, better names, etc.
I dunno what ideas/advice to give, especially on thinning out the archetypes to three, cause they're all quite cool, but I do particularly like the concept of Void.

 

thanks so much i have many other ideas i'm working on and will edit this one as i go
