The Rightful Heir

Description
"Reared on tales of his family’s former glory, the Heir sought to reclaim it.

Hi. Is there any plan to add an rapier version with pistol?. Great work and regards!

@CathMario He's meant to be used like antiquarian. He isn't gonna do much but slight support for the team in exchange of riches, however, the heir can become pretty busted with the right trinkets and set up. Letter opener also has total armor piercing. I think his riposte has as well, don't overlook it because he single-handedly got my team out of a bad situation with a bone commander.

Great class, makes the game much less grindy.
My main critique is the -30%dmg mod on Letter Opener. The class' dmg is already abyssmal, so why lower it even more?

As a personal preference, I think it would be cool if he had a camping skill that produces more of his white wine provision :P

Yeah I used a different name so that there wouldn't be cross mod issues and adding artist's initial was a first thing that came to my mind.
JMO Oct 14, 2024 @ 4:33pm 
Personally I'm fine with the class. My only personal gripe is the naming of the class via files "kheir"? Maybe it's relevant to the artist "Kaxen" or maybe it's for better compatibility with the other heir mod?

Either way, I appreciate this class and the depth of him, especially down to things like town events. Bravo devs:steamthis:

I think he is really good. Without specific mods you can't convert gold to heirlooms so the heir + the anti take care of other kinds of resources.
He can stress heal, do some minor healing and chip down HP on mobs. Not the strongest melee-wise but it's not his design. From Vanilla PoV we can imagine it as a worse jester without ballad who can in turn heal. Other members carry the fights and the heir makes sure that you can upgrade crucial buildings weeks earlier.

Class is good for what it is, but he's too weak. I get that's the point, but he's even weaker than anti i think. I used to use him for the increased stacking but he's considerably worse than the money printer. You need to use the + level up stuff in every fight get every mileage out of it and at some point, all it is is just a one use stress heal (which is fair, it's job is done once your roster is level 6).

all in all, he needs a buff to at least have him on par with anti or a bit stronger than her, considering you don't need Crests, portraits, etc as much as you need gold. I stopped using the heir a long while ago because all he did was take up space for my roster, new recruits and valuable trinkets. But he has his place. if he gets some love, i'll definitely add him again.

Any chance for a future Black Reliquary port?
