Class Talents

Technique / Duelist1.00
  • Effective talent level: 3.0
    Use mode: Passive
    Description: Your offhand weapon damage penalty is reduced to 26%.
    Up to 2.5 times a turn, you have a 35% chance to parry up to 12 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
3/5
  • Effective talent level: 1.0
    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 1.7 stamina and gain 4% of a turn.
    Recover -- On performing a critical strike with your offhand weapon, you instantly restore 1.7 stamina.

    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

    Usage Speed: Instant (0% of a turn)
    Description: Enters stealth mode (power 0, 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 11.
    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.

    Stealth
0/5
  • Effective talent level: 0.0
    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 0%. (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
0/5

  • Effective talent level: 1.0
    Use mode: Passive

    The detection abilities improve with Cunning.

    Description: This intricate spell erects a space distortion around the caster that is linked to another distortion, placed around a target.
    Any time the caster should take damage, there is a 40% chance that it will instead be warped by the shield and hit the designated target.
    Once the maximum damage (67) is absorbed, the time runs out (10 turns), or the target dies, the shield will crumble.
    The max damage the shield can absorb will increase with your Spellpower.
