Where it stands, Empath is a type that's likely chosen due to it's Light and Dark aura benefit, as the statistical benefits are not something that are heavily benefitted from. My suggestion here is to shift these Light and Dark aura benefits down a rank each, in order to make them more-easily accessible. Even through this benefit at Rank 3, one of the main mechanical benefits of Light and Dark Aura - being able to attempt to shut down someone's release - still is not doable, due to Energy Sensory not being high enough, even with 400 points still invested in the stat (1000 is required, and only 800 is able to be acquired). These are my suggestions below:
{Empath, As Written}
Type: Empath
Description: Empaths are those who are particularly attuned to the emotions and feelings of others by being able to feel these things as if they were their own. Empaths in the spiritual world become even more attuned thanks to a surprisingly sharp ability to sense the souls of others, allowing them to become much more aware of everyone and rapidly interpret those feelings to their advantage. However, they work best in individual situations. In a crowd, the rush of feelings and emotions can become overwhelming to those not steeled against it.
Advantage:
Rank 1: 50% increase to Instinct and Energy Sensory (100 would be 150).
Rank 2: 75% increase to Instinct and Energy Sensory (100 would be 175). The user may treat their Light/Dark Aura as though they are at 60 around characters whose Class is lower than the user's, allowing them to better understand the intentions of others as well as their motivations.
Rank 3: Double Instinct and Energy Sensory (100 would be 200). The user may treat their Light/Dark Aura as though they are at 80 around characters whose Class is lower than the user's, allowing them to better understand the intentions of others as well as their motivations.
Rank 4: 150% increase to Instinct and Energy Sensory (100 would be 250). The user may treat their Light/Dark Aura as though they are at 100 around characters of their Class or lower, allowing them to better understand the intentions of others as well as their motivations. They can also resist most forms of emotional distress.
Disadvantage: Drawback for All Ranks: Decrease one Physical and one Spiritual Stat by 40% (100 would become 60). Those of this Type are more prone to cracking under pressure around multiple people due to how well they receive emotional input from those around them. They become stressed easily in crowds.
