📋 About This Mod

The basic idea is a user of rapiers/finesse weapons with various on hit abilities. Please note that rebalancing might be needed, I would appreciate feedback on that part:)

I have implemented it as a full caster with medium health progression. Most of your skills consume Spell Slots on hit and can be upcast (like the paladins Smite), and will switch your Stance. Possible Stances are:

  • []Offensive Stance (+1d4 to Attack Rolls)

    []Defensive Stance (All damage taken is reduced by your Classlevel/2 rounded down)

    []Virtuose Stance (You gain advantage on attack rolls and damage rolls, Free Aim Shot and Stendhal can be cast as Bonus Action). The Toggle for the Bonus Action Change will automatically added to your hotbar, so you can switch between Attack/Extra Attack and Bonus Action resource usage. Dont use them as Bonus action between Attack and Extra Attack, otherwise it will eat both your Bonus Action and Extra Attack.

    A Stance will last for 2 turns, unless you switch it with an ability (your old stance will be overwritten). Using an ability that would apply your current stance again will not reset the timer. Many of your skills have synergies with one Stance, so juggeling your skills and Stances is essential to use the classes full potential.

    You need an empty Offhand and a Finesse Weapon in order to be able to user your skills.

    New Mechanic: Stance Breaks. Most Expeditioner abilities will deal SpellLevel10 Stance Stacks on successfull Attacks. If an enemies Stance Stacks exceed their HP, they can be Stance Broken by certain Abilities. A Stance Broken Target will be Stunned for 1 turn, and cant be Stance broken again or accumulate Stance Stacks for 2 Turns.

    -This one is hard to balance due to the fact that on higher difficulties enemies have far more HP, same problem as Sleep Spell. If you have suggestions, feel free to share-

    You basic proficiencies are: Rapiers, simple weapons, Light Armor, Int and Dexterity saving throws. You Spellcasting ability is Wisdom (Changed from Int starting with Update 2. 0

    Your Level Progression is as follows, consult the Excel lower in the Description for further information on what the abilities do.

    • []Stance Switch: Offensive, Stance Switch:Defensive, Free Aim Shot, Choose 2 Spells, Arcane Recovery:1

      []Fighting Style (Defense or Duelling), Choose 1 Spell

      []Sword Art 1, Free Aim Passive, Choose 1 Spell, Arcane Recovery: 2
