The Corsair Class Mod

Description
"Another mariner, another misfortune."

Introduction
------------------------------------------
The Corsair is an all new class mod for Darkest Dungeon. An infamous pirate warlord, the Corsair has arrived to expand her criminal empire and claim whatever riches may lie here. She is a nimble and powerful damage dealer, with a variety of exotic weapons and tactics at her disposal allowing her to inflict devastating damage and bleeds. She compensates this by being rather frail, having a relatively low HP pool. She has fully original assets, including sprites, animations, and sounds.

"The notorious Corsair is a terrifying combatant, dancing between enemy blades untouched and lashing out from the shadows. She dashes across the battlefield like a ghost, setting herself up to inflict devastating damage with her arsenal, disrupting and weakening her opponents to her deadly blows!"

Although i like the design, her head is kinda big compared to her body, and in fact she is kind of underwhelming, i do hope it gets a overhaul at some point because of the potential it got

Her head is too freaking big.

her head look lumpy

Yeah I agree with the other folks, this might just be your weakest character sadly. She needs so much to do decent damage, and the fact that her stuff is dependent with her own moves and not marks made by her allies is really disappointing. I recommend the changes Reapsy is putting forward, as they catch all the downsides and crack them with a triple digit crit.

Where can I see her trinkets ?

Her head is way too big for how small her body is.

Really like her design, both visual and gameplay-wise, it's amazing, but she's just too weak even compared to Grave Robber or Highwayman.
It's not worth it to do the Oil Urn + Firecracker combo, not for damage nor debuffs. Honestly, if Firecracker Stunned Oil Urn'd target instead of Shuffling, it would make all the difference. Maybe make it increase Torch level a tiny bit, or destealth or give a bigger ACC debuff.
Getaway is way too unreliable because it all hinges on being able to dodge an attack. Speed buff would make it much better. Or at least make Stealth last longer, to differentiate it from GR's Shadow Fade.
Face Me! is weird, Corsair marks herself, but she doesn't get any buffs to help her survive. Forget survival actually, I'd agree on Riposte.
Rope Dart could use a longer Bleed. Maybe deal less raw damage and instead debuff target's speed or dodge.
Thousand Cuts could use some bonus dmg vs Bleeding and/or Stunned. Not a big bonus, but still.

I can't really say how I feel about this class. some times seems good others bad and is a party dancer so thats a negative (for me) may use her in the future not sure. other commentors have said some of the things that I like/dislike so theres that.

Man, i dont like this character. She is boring , no synergy, why does she rely on marks while not being a mark oriented assasin? Her nubers are underwhelming and she requires a dancing party which is a big fucking condition. Other classes just do better damage, even vanilla ones

Just a little note (not sure if it's intended): she starts with all her skills already learned.
