New Type: Duelist

[Alastor Caedes]

Type: Duelist

Description: Duelist. The Warriors that believe in one-on-one fights. So much so that they trained themselves for exactly that. Duelists don’t believe in being able to fight more than one enemy being proof of their strength. Instead, they focus intensely on physical one on one fights. However, due to this intense focus. They are lacking in the spiritual strength others may naturally have, or the ability to detect spiritual things as easily.

Advantage:

Rank 3: 200% increase to Strength (100 Strength would be 300). Senses is increased by 50% (100 Senses would be 150). Duelists gains 3 free points in Battle focus which doesn't count towards their SkP total. This cannot increase Battle Focusbeyond it's normal cap.

Rank 4: 250% increase to Strength (100 Strength would be 350). Senses is increased by 75% (100 Senses would be 175). Duelists gains 3 free points in Battle Focus which doesn't count towards their SkP total. This cannot increase Battle Focus beyond it's normal cap.

Wouldn't it make more sense for a Duelist to focus on speed? A Gladiator seems more fitting for a strength boost. Also, the cuts don't really seem like they would be all that impactful for the build this type is going for. The impact of the RS cut is mostly mitigated by the Fighter drawbacks to non-release techniques, meaning you don't really need to worry about it. Then you have ES as the second and biggest cut, which can be ignored if you choose to not put any points into it.

As far as the races go. This is technically type x version 6. So im still narrowing it down. Mostly trying to focus on the races that don't need RS for their general skillset/racial power setups. Such as Quincy and Failures, Akki for obvious enough reasons as they already got a decent enough amount of stuff in development and on the way. Rogue's im unsure of. 

Anyway. Adjusted the downsides as mentioned by Soul. RS stat cuts increased. 100 SP being minimum required for ES. Got rid of the fighter downsides that mitigated the RS downsides. Lowered number of stat points of Battle Focus given to 2 maximum and Senses buff decreasing to 50% at rank 4. Also changed name... because Soul is right. Gladiator just sounds better.

In my opinion, Gladiator shares too much with Prodigy V1. Gladiator gives Strength and Senses, Prodigy gives Strength or Speed, and Senses or Energy Sensory, meaning both types fill the same niche. Sure, Gladiator doesn't have as many cuts, nor are they as big, but Prodigy still gives more, with the second 350% boost, and the learning techniques early gimmick. What does Gladiator do that Prodigy V1 doesn't do already?

Not only that, but these drawbacks just aren't nearly as detrimental to the type as they need to be. What use do RS and ES provide to someone that walks away with 1200 Strength and 540 Senses at Rank 3? If there was a speed, instinct, or some other cut to a definitive stat, maybe, but where it stands this type just doesn't have any drawbacks. Adding onto what Soul had said though, while certainly nice in concept, this type just doesn't really fill its own niche when we've got Prodigy Version 1 walking about.
