Description
Ronin - Class Mod
====================================

“The Katana holds the sprit of honorable warrior. Now, it is just a tool for killing.”

A dishonored swordsman from the far East. Once a proud samurai of a powerful house, his own greed and sins had led him down the path of ruin. Now, left with nothing, he came to this forsaken place seeking to fulfill the only purpose he has left; to die of a warrior’s death.


Role:
Ronin is the textbook front-line glass cannon. Able to dish out high damage potential, but not very good at dodging, nor high HP.
But more than that, he is a very techenical fighter, with few skills to help him over come his weakness. Certain skill combos and party group are needed to help bring out his true damage dealing potential. He also now can be build as a tank buster, be able to take down high defensive monster's protection.


====================================

Design Note:
Woot, finally a brand new class (not just port from Nexus). Always want to do a eastern theme class, and a coversation on chat spark me to get to it. Took longer due to other work and stuff, but its finally done! (I think....). While didn't really bring any thing new in term of functionality (play like a cross of Good Girl and Assassin), I think he has a pretty good theme.

====================================

Skills:

-Flashing Blade: Basic Attack. Decent range.
-Swift Cuts: Hits all enemies, use from back.
-Battojutsu: A high damage attack only from Rank 1.
-Calming Zen: A hp and stress self heal. Only use from back.
-Swallow's Return: A weak ranage attack that boost your own damage.
-Guard Stance: Increase your defense, and add a riposte that increase your dodge when take hit.
-Shingan: Debuff target, buff your own accuracy and crit.

====================================

Playing Tips:

-Many of Ronin's skill have position restriction, but few of his skill moves him around too. Try find a combo that work well.
-I also like to use Guard Stand at the start of the fight, since the dodge add from the ripo last longer.
-Also could play in a team with other party that have move skills, so to help him posistion better.
-If needed, use moving skill to try to move out of the front line, and avoid some of the strong attacks.

I love this character, he's so cool and strong. Only downside is that Shingan doesn't de-stealth enemies for me (i can't target the stealthed enemies)

people complaining about weebness when they get a weeb mod. Million IQ people we got here.

Hello,
absolutely love the class! Thanks!

After playing with it for a bit I thought ... it would be cool with a mask, maybe some older armour. So yeah, I made a skin edit, it works!

Thing is, I have no idea how to mod it in (I used your original directory). I don't need to publish it or anything. You can see it in my artwork. If you feel like it's good enough, I'll gladly send you the PNGs so you can upload it as a palette, it's your mod after all. Just wanted to add an option to it :steamhappy:

Thanks again for the mods!

Love to see how far you made it with your mods. From reskining stock classes to one made from scratch and having it fit perfectly with the aesthetic. Mod's overpowered as fuck btw.
Looking forward to seeing what else you'll make, and if you'd take a request, I'd beg daily for a remaster of your older classes.

The mod is cool, i like to play this hero BUT god damn why did you gave him such cringe weeb quotes? Like the genji quotes for example. You could have done some research to give him fine japanese quotes, or no japanese at all. But when he crits it's always some weeb sh*t. Im a weeb but it's too much. Kinda ruins it for me, even if the hero is good and fun to play

He pairs so well with the Wanderer. Also, I love how there are at least 3 different takes (Ronin, Wanderer, Exile) on Japanese swordsmen and they all feel unique.

Good but fragile damage dealer who can dance through the battlefield like a whirlwind of blades...

The concept is interesting, but i wish this class was a little different. First of all i dont think such class needs a mark, he doesnt rely on them and has no place in marking group. Second is swift cuts should be target damage, not aoe, this skill is trying to be two other skills at the same time, i dislike that. The healing + stresshealing is VERY generous, considering the stun chance isnt all that big, and if you equip some s.resist you are just golden. Other than than i think class is pretty good. 7\10

Great mod. a fun damage dealer that has some fun potential. for me worked best as a 2nd positional and had great time building him as a Crit hitter. had loads of fun would use for a season 2.
