Description
This mod aims to change unused abilities into ones that aid the classes play style, without changing too much and detracting from the core design.

The Leper. Players tend to think he's either the best or worst character in the game (hes the worst btw), swinging for the highest damage in the game by far, and being the tankiest hero in the game, the Leper very large strengths but even larger weaknesses. This mod should keep his strength and attempt to mitigate his weeknesses slightly while giving him more unique ways to be played rather than unga bunga hit boss for 60+.

Hew:
- Moves forward 1
- Can be performed from position 1,2,3 (from 1,2)

This gives Hew a use, and slightly mitigates one of Lepers biggest drawbacks. although if he gets shuffled to 4th he still has to take a turn moving to be able to start attacking again.


Purge:
- Added stun 100% - 140%

Purge I dont think was really ever used, it slightly mitigates an issue of the Leper by removing corpses so that he can get to backline after wiping out the front, but now it gives him a high damage stun only on the front target, trying not to give the leper too much utility, this also helps him reach the backline by pushing the front to the back and shuffling the enemies closer.

Withstand:
- Now guards a selected ally as well

Marks never work properly and most of the time monsters just ignore them unless they have a move that has bonus dmg vs mark, guarding an ally actually gives him a reliable way to uses his mountains of health. still limited to 1 use per battle.

Revenge:
- Added riposte (-80% - -60%)

yup, a riposte on leper, swinging for ~20 dmg if he ever actually hits people with it. This turns Leper into an even more explosive high damage class at the cost of survivability

Balance changes will be updated as I (Or others) play more with the mod.

This mod is great but I'd love to see Chop's accuracy boosted by 5% so it's a more viable attack option

Just wanted to say I'm looking forward to Arbalest Reforged, that's the hero I feel needs the most changes.

Thanks for the feedback, you make a good point, although I dont think I'll really start making changes to the classes until I've finished modding all of them and played with them a bit and get a feel for how all the modded classes work together, but I'll be sure to keep that change noted down for when I do come to making changes.

you may wanna increase the duration of the riposte given by revenge from 3 to 4 or 5 turns
because in regular battles you usually won't bother with using revenge and in both boss fights and in endless harvest the riposte will quickly run out
