Another melee class to make u happy

BRAWLER
i thought of this and its basically a fist fighter, however to enforce the no weapon=no attack i made it wear gauntlets (they come in pairs for 2 handed)
not exactly sure ont he max dmg for these though considering that it would hit quite quickly but here are the attributes

Endurance(primary attribute)-Endurance increases your max health (kinda like energy storage)

Chi- increases the effectiveness of skills that use chi to increase the strength of your attack or to decrease the damage done to you

Martial Arts- increases the effectiveness of skills that involve using stances and other skilsl to increase the effectiveness of your attack and to disable the enemy (for example strong blow to the leg for crippling)

Brawling- increases the effectiveness of skills that involve doing large amounts of damage to the foe and disabling him (like wrestling kind of for example knockdown crippling etc)

here are few skills (yah brawlers use adrenaline 2)

Topple
Cost: 5 adrenaline (im not good with adrenal skills so i dunno how much is too little )

Brawling attack. Knockdown target foe for 3...7 seconds
(attrib brawling)

Tiger Stance
cost:10
recharge time:30
Stance. for 10-20 seconds your attacks do +1...5 more damage
and have 5% armor penetration (if the armor penetration doesnt work then make it 1 to 10 damage)
(attrib: martial arts)

Chi punch
Cost: 5
recharge 10
attack skill: hit target for for 10...24 more damage
(attrib chi)

thats all i can think of any help would be appreciated cause i dont know much about melee class skils

as much as i love to hear new ideas, i dont think this is really suggestions, just a way to express creativity. as for new classes, if a new melee fighter must be added, i would add some kind of a rogue. not with over powered critical strike skills(i.e. backstab, perforate artery, etc) but instead, uses sword weapons & thrusting weps(i.e. daggers, foils, etc etc) and maybe some stealing tricks or nice little hex's, money stealing from mobs, & debuffs. that type of stuff.

okee whatever any other suggestions that are more related to the topic??

hmm here are a few skills

Chi Blast
cost:10
recharge 20
damage all adjacent foes for 10...23 damage and they are knocked down
(attrib Chi)

Salamander stance
Cost:15
recharge:30
Stance for 10...30 seconds each of your attacks do fire damage and do +2...7 damage
Attrib:martial arts

Invincible aura (elite)
Cost:10
recharge 30
Enchantment spell.for 4-15 seconds you take no damage from any source except for holy and shadow damage (attrib chi)

please any comments?

Chi Punch.....Chi Blast.....don't forget a Kamehameha....This guys is starting to sound more like a DBZ Character then a Brawler -.- sorry....bit of humor and I'm tired....

Iono...good luck with your thought.

how about a Berserker class?

We allready have that Berserker Class... its called Wa/Mo and typically rushes into battle the very first second only to fight until death and die with a lot of curses and anger.

What about a Shapeshifter or a Mimicry? ^^

Kamakazi
Adrenaline: 15
Recharge: none
Jump on target foe. You have a 10% chance to kill the target, otherwise they kill you.

Sometimes I wish all warriors had this.

/signed

I think we need more melee classes..

W/Mo isn't a berserker, most likely it is a melee/support.
W/R, now that is more like a berserker. endurance, dodge, and all speed enhancing skilz

It could be cool. And a little weapon suggestion is 2 let it wear gauntlets with massive blades attached 2 it

As long as there's no stealth... I have played DAoC, a game where stealth is greatly implemented, and WoW, where it's still a little faulty; GW is NOT a game where stealth would be good...

meh.

Bold is mine, obviously.

Yes, and lets release this offensive skill to small children. Kamakazis were suicide piolots who killed themselves to kill others in WWI. That's like suggesting a skill such as "Genocide" or "Haulocaust."

Some people don't understand sarcasm when it jumps them straight...

Kai, dont forget that the kamakazi is actually older than WW2.

they just recycled it, slapped them into a plane and pointed them at the enemy.
i think, if i remember rightly, they took a much older tradition, similar time ad place to the samuri, and adapted it to the situation.

as to rogue. lets call them what they are....Thief.
thats one thing that winds me up, specialy in DnD. most of these rogues are just gentlemen thiefs.sure, they dress fancy and have rules, but at their core, they are still a thief.
DnD ect has changed the tearm, cause people dont like it.
i had a rogue on NwN, and i called her Dureena Nafeel. she was a thief, and damn proud of it.
need someone to sneak around, she could. need a lock picked, there wasnt a lock in the know world she couldnt pick nor a jailcell that could hold her, all the jails knew this. want to get into somewhere, go around, go under, go through...she was the girl for the job.

so, mesmer outfits are called rogue stuff? so what.
add a thief class. make some chests locked, so you need a thief with lockpicking skill.
add doors, too, that need picking. add some misions that need real stealth, not just pretending to be stealthy till you have the item, then avoiding the troops till you get away.

and theres nothign wrong with Brawler. otherwise, wheres Little Thom geting the job?
(yeah, i know, he is just a fighter with an axe rather than a sword, and they wanted to call him somehting other than fighter so you could take both him and Stefan)

or, change it to barbarian ^^ then loads of macho guys get a proper excuse to run about in their undies ^^ showing off their chest and flexing their muscles.
they could all have tats on their chests, and little loincloths and boots and gauntlets fro armour....how many people would dump thier warior monks for barbarian monks, hmmm?

(specialy if they had a chest thumping, gorrila like dance ^^ hhehe)

How About a class called ninjutzu.


Ninjutzu can be good to sneak behind enemy lines and kill them fast or die fast.

Any suggestions on my sugestion?? =D

That's the same as all the other "Ninja" threads that have been posted.

i see were starting to get a bit off topic
any way here are some more skills

Flurry(elite)
Adrenaline:10
Recharge:45
Hit target foe and adjacent foes 3...5 times (once again i dont know much about adrenal skills so i dont know if they already have to recharge or you just need the extra adrenaline)
(attrib martial arts)

Berserk(E)
Adrenaline:8
For 10...20 seconds you go berserk, causing you to attack 50% more often and your attacks have a 10% chance to knockdown target for 1...3 seconds however you take double damage from attacks
(Attrib brawling)

Knockout!!(E)
Adrenaline:10
"cast" time:3

(attrib:brawling)

Low kick
Adrenaline:6

(Attrib:martial arts)

sorry i couldnt come up with any chi skills

I like melee classes and this one sounds interesting; some of the skills are really overpowered but it doesn't matter because this is just your idea. I would love to have a fighter with more finesse.
