My first attempt at a combo-based class.
As with the original, I'm doing a White Gi armor with the generic 5 skills, and four specialized armors with the other 5.
White Gi
Martial Artist class armor
FO neutral element armor
High MRM with a focus on Melee.
Attack:
- Unarmed Combat. When wielding a Fist or a weapon associated with your School, your basic attack is 3 hits of 25% melee each with a subsequent 50/50 (Str vs End) save; on success, make 2 more hits.
- Untrained Attack. When wielding any other weapon, your attack is a single hit with -5% damage penalty.
Appearance: Similar, if slightly taller.
Description: Begin your study of martial arts with the Crouching Frogzard Style, a beginner's set of offensive and defensive moves for every situation.
Level 0: School of Combat - Passive
Each armor has a different stance, one you enter when using a Fist or a School Weapon.
White Gi: Crouching Frogzard Stance. A versatile stance that uses your lack of heavy armor or large weapons to strike and evade blows with increased ease.
Extra School Weapon: Claw.
- Gain +3 MRM and +6.375 bth. (calc: passive + player-controlled trigger)
In addition, all Schools of Combat can use Combos. After using a Basic Strike, for one round any Basic Strike instead becomes a Combo Strike, dealing different damage and effect. Combo Strikes are not counted as Basic Strikes, so using one resets the Combo.
Level 1: Basic Strike: Punch - Active
Launch a sharp punch at your foe's head.
Costs 25% melee sp.
A basic attack at +5 bth lean with +25% LS rate.
Dragon's Breath Stance: Instead of boosted LS rate, your punches grant you +25 Status Potence for 1 round.
- Punch-Punch (Thoat Punch Combo): Attack deals 25% melee and inflicts Choke (-50/1.4% damage for 4 rounds). Monster can resist at a 50/50 Dex vs Dex save.
- Punch-Kick (Shin Kick Combo): Attack deals 50% melee and inflicts Offbalanced (-60 Dex) until the end of the battle. Monster can resist with a 50/50 Str vs End save.
- Punch-Palm (Solar Plexus Combo): Attack deals 75% melee to both hp and sp, and inflicts Winded (renamed Disease; affects sp, power = 3x sp damage dealt). Monster can resist (Str vs End) with -6 penalty to save.
Level 2: Basic Strike: Kick - Active
Deliver a powerful kick to your foe's misection or thigh.
Costs 50% melee sp.
1.5x damage basic attack at -5 bth lean.
- Kick-Punch (Eye Jab Combo): Attack deals 25% melee and inflicts Blind (-21.7 bth for 4 rounds). Monster can resist (Dex vs Dex) with -20 penalty to save.
- Kick-Kick (Groin Kick Combo): Attack deals 75% melee and inflicts Pained (renamed Paralysis) for 1 round. Monster can resist (Str vs Dex) with -13 penalty to save.
- Kick-Palm (Firm Stance Combo): Attack deals 75% melee and grants you Stability. Next time you're affected by an immobilizing status, you automatically break free; doing so removes the Stability status.
Level 3: Basic Strike: Palm Strike - Active
Breathe in, breathe out and release an open-hand attack at your foe's torso.
Costs 75% melee sp.
A basic attack that gives you Centered status - around a toggle's worth of Str and Dex each (+50 at lvl 150) for 4 rounds.
Dragon's Breath Stance: Gain Str + Int instead.
- Palm-Punch (Ear Clap Combo): Attack deals 35.75% melee and inflicts Concussion (renamed Mindlock) for 3 turns. Monster can shrug off the effect (Dex vs End) with -20 penalty to save.
- Palm-Kick (Knock Down Combo): Attack deals 50% melee and inflicts Knocked Down (-25 bth and MRM). Monster can stand up at the beginning of its turn (Str vs Str) with -10 penalty to save.
- Palm-Palm (Dragon Claw Combo): Attack deals 75% melee and inflicts Bleed (Power 0.75) which increases in power every round (+0.25) to a max of 1.25. Monster can shrug off the bleeding with a 50/50 Str vs End save.
Level 4: Counterattack - Passive

If you blocked at least one strike, then do a hit of damage worth (HitsBlocked/Attempted * 33)% damage of a standard player attack. This is considered a weapon-based attack, it follows the element of your weapon and applies all weapon-based effects. It can be dodged.
Level 5: Focus - Active
Concentrate all of your martial skill to deliver an extra attack against your foe!
