New Class: Berserker

this is more of a joke suggestion cause im bored so dont take it too seriously

In a Berserker's eyes, damage is more important than wealth, more important than their own lifeforce. Berserkers have no fear of death, and sacrifice their own blood in order to receive the blessings of Death. They play with their own existence and though the risk is large, receive high returns for their sacrifices. People who have fought a Berserker and lived to tell the tale are scarce, but those who survive say they are demon spawns and inhuman in the way that they fight.

Base Stats:
Damage - 5/5
Defence: 2/5
Range: 1/5
Spells: 3/5
Difficulty: 3/3
Weapon: Waraxe

Main Attack: Perform a horizontal swing with your axe to cover more area. Has less range than assassin and warrior though.

Sacrifice: Lose X health, and in return gain X% more attack and X life steal for X seconds.
Grade 2: Life steal bonus is increased based on the raw amount of HP you are missing.
Grade 3: Lose X health over X seconds, instead of instantly.

Lunge: Jump and launch yourself towards the direction you are facing, dealing AOE damage in the form of a shockwave on landing.
Grade 2: On landing, inflict slowness X to nearby enemies as well.
Grade 3: Gain X jump boost after activating Lunge.

Thunderclap: Sacrifice X health to instantly cause lightning to strike in front of you, dealing damage in a small AOE.
Grade 2: The lightning can chain onto 2 additional enemies.
Grade 3: Killing an enemy with Thunderclap will heal you X% of your HP.

Primordial Shout: Pull nearby enemies towards you, dealing damage. After, gain resistance X for X seconds.
Grade 2: Enemies will be launched upwards before being pulled to you, scaling off your jump height.
Grade 3: Heal X% of your HP for every enemy hit by Primordial Shout.

 

This reminds me heavily of Olaf from League of Legends
I like the idea and it sounds like warrior but in cooler/more engaging/more fun

Sacrifice:
maybe change the %more attack to +X Attack Speed(i find this personally better/more fun)
I really like Grade 2
Grade 3 seems a bit weak, maybe make it change from "Lose %Total health" to "Lose %Current Health"

Lunge:
A Lunge sounds good, but i dont see how jump boost would be useful(except for Primordial Shout)
So i would remove the AOE Shockwave and add it on Grade 3

Thunderclap:
I really like this ability, but it seems weak against bosses, because of no chains
Again, i would recommend make it "Sacrifice %current Health" and "Heal %total Health"
It might be hard to know your damage(which would be important bc you would want to kill enemies with this spell)
A way of fixing this would be to let it's damage scale with %missing health, only vs non-Bosses though, obviously


Primordial Shout:
I like the idea of a pull and the resistance fits nicely into this character, however to much resistance might be a problem bc of the lifesteal(i would prefer higher life steal for lower resistance)
Grade 2 seems pointless imo
Grade 3 seems interesting, because you would have a massive heal against multiple enemies

All in all i like the idea of a fighter that is encouraged to fight, not just kite.
We have no self healing melee characters rn so i would love this
Also this would enforce a playstyle of attacking, not like shaman(passive heal) and mage(active heal)

A noteworthy idea would be to remove mana from this class
Why you ask?
let his hp costs for the abilities scale up when he spams them
i dont know if this would be a good idea, but it would be fun
Thus Lunge would need a hp cost as well

All in all, i believe he would have too much healing
While healing defines the berserker, it shouldnt be on every ability
Thus i would probably make the healing from thunderclap scale with spell damage, and remove the heaing from primordial shout
This would offer 2 different routes: tier stack melee fighter(sacrifice) and spell caster(thunderclap)
This would make the spell caster bad vs bosses though, because of no healing when not killing enemies
I dont know how to fix this problem though...

Keeping most of the healing on Sacrifice would force him to cycle through his spells more thoughtful
He would have to choose between healing/dps buff; mobility; burst/execute; target access

I hope this was interesting, as i found this class idea very much interesting and promising

 

so this is supposed to be warrior but its some kind of revenant in wynncraft?
I think its really interesting, how do you chain a lightning bolt coming straight onto the ground tho, unless there's lightning "tendrils" coming out of it

this is hero rage but your major id is "the more hp you lose the more brokenly powerful you become"

 

would the axe be crafted using 3 copper and 2 wood? Or is it a different recipe?
