Class Talents

Technique / Duelist1.30
  • Effective talent level: 2.6
    Use mode: Passive
    Description: Your offhand weapon damage penalty is reduced to 29%.
    Up to 2.3 times a turn, you have a 36% chance to parry up to 11 damage (based on your offhand weapon damage) from a melee or ranged attack. The number of parries increases with your Cunning. (A fractional parry has a reduced chance to succeed.)
    A successful parry reduces damage like armour (before any attack multipliers) and prevents critical strikes. It is difficult to parry attacks from unseen attackers and you cannot parry with a mindstar.
    Dual Weapon Mastery
2/5
  • Effective talent level: 1.3
    Use mode: Passive
    Description: The flow of battle invigorates you, allowing you to press your advantage as the fight progresses.
    Up to once each per turn, while dual wielding, you may:
    Riposte -- If a melee or archery attack misses you or you parry it, you instantly restore 2.0 stamina and gain 5% of a turn.
    Recover -- On performing a critical strike with your offhand weapon, you instantly restore 2.0 stamina.

    Stamina cost: 6
    Range: melee/personal
    Cooldown: 8
    Travel Speed: instantaneous
    Usage Speed: Weapon (100% of a turn)
    Description: Make a cunning feint that tricks your target into swapping places with you. While moving, you take the opportunity to trip them, pinning and dazing them for 2 turns.
    Switching places distracts your foes and allows you to improve your defenses: For 0 turns, Dual Weapon Mastery yields one extra parry each turn and you are 4% less likely to miss your parry opportunities.
    The chance to pin and to daze increases with your Accuracy
    Feint

    Travel Speed: instantaneous
    Usage Speed: Weapon (100% of a turn)
    Description: Exploiting a gap in your target's defenses, you make a lethal strike with your offhand weapon for 180% damage that causes them to drop their weapon, disarming them for 0 turns.
    Tempo will reduce the cooldown of this talent by 1 turn each time it is triggered defensively.
    The chance to disarm increases with your Accuracy.

Cunning / Stealth1.30
  • Effective talent level: 2.6

    Cooldown: 10
    Travel Speed: instantaneous
    Usage Speed: Instant (0% of a turn)
    Description: Enters stealth mode (power 35, based on Cunning), making you harder to detect.
    If successful (re-checked each turn), enemies will not know exactly where you are, or may not notice you at all.
    Stealth reduces your light radius to 0, increases your infravision by 3, and will not work with heavy or massive armours.
    You cannot enter stealth if there are foes in sight within range 7 (range 6 in an unlit grid).
    Any non-instant, non-movement action will break stealth if not otherwise specified.

    Enemies uncertain of your location will still make educated guesses at it.
    While stealthed, enemies cannot share information about your location with each other and will be delayed in telling their allies that you exist at all.
    Stealth
2/5
  • Effective talent level: 1.3
    Use mode: Passive
    Description: You know how to make the most out of being unseen.
    When striking from stealth, your attacks are automatically critical if the target does not notice you just before you land it. (Spell and mind attacks critically strike even if the target notices you.)
    Your critical multiplier against targets that cannot see you is increased by up to 19%. (You must be able to see your target and the bonus is reduced from its full value at range 3 to 0 at range 10.)
    Also, after exiting stealth for any reason, the critical multiplier persists for 3 turns (with no range limitation).
    Shadowstrike
1/5
  • Effective talent level: 1.3
    Use mode: Passive
    Description: You have a special affinity for darkness and shadows.
    When standing in an unlit grid, the minimum range to your foes for activating stealth or for maintaining it after a Shadow Dance is reduced by 1.
    While stealthed, your life regeneration is increased by 2.6 (based on your Cunning) and your stamina regeneration is increased by 1.2. The regeneration effects persist for 3 turns after exiting stealth, with 5 times the normal rate.

    Traps prepared this way are difficult to detect (22 detection 'power') and disarm (28 disarm 'power') based on your Cunning. They gain +34% effectiveness, and can be deployed without breaking stealth 31% of the time.
    You are immune to the damage and negative effects of your traps, and traps may critically strike based on your physical crit chance.

    Description: You have trained to be very light on your feet and have conditioned your reflexes to react faster than thought to damage you take.
    While this talent is active, you instantly react to any direct damage (not from status effects, etc.) that would hit you for at least 44% of your maximum life.
    This requires 2.0 stamina and reduces the damage by 5%.
    Your reactions are too slow for this if you are wearing heavy armour.
    The damage reduction improves with your Defense.
