[QUOTE="ff6shadow, post: 4439026, member: 61179"] Cynlas Yeah, one tactic is intended. The lack of a statment that you need to pick one was an oversight. Exen Trik It doesn't have the damage output to be a striker, it isn't sticky enough to be a defender, and it cleary isn't a leader. It has low damage output area attacks, with multiple status effect abilities as well. Generally, controller is the only roll that fits that. Although the secondary role, which ever class has, is definetly Defender. He'll do in a pinch, but he crumples too easily to stay there long. Intelligence applies to precision strike, which generally picks relies on unsuaul tactics and striking weak points, where as flurry of blows relies on dexterity to full multiple attacks and the best of the area attacks. The goal of the ranged powers was to give a benefit to the only spear that was really left out, the javelin. With a few ranged powers scattered about, the javelin becomes a viable weapon for this class. Lancer Tactics were given half stat as after the model of the warlord's tactical presence. You may want to go over the powers again. I had a delayed update over here, becuase I figured the thread had been abandoned to the bottom of the heap. I've posted it now and the class is inline with the PDF again. I do agree on the needs more jumping, but I fitting it in before paragon seemed to break out of the martial power source. If you could mention the powers with wonky keywords, I'd appreciate it. Probably just typos. WanderingMystic You missed the removal of damage at epic on those two at-will powers. [/QUOTE]
