The Paradox Class Mod

*Visual update in progress*
(Reverted changes from unpatched version mix up.)
- Updates are delayed until further notice.

===== Intro =====

"Strange Aeons pass and even Lady Death may Love again. Fate abhors an Endless Paradox..."

The Paradox is perhaps nothing more than a conundrum. It clings to lives past and memories long lost. This undead creature has died many times... Only to be reborn, each time stronger than before. They were chosen to carry the Soul Reaver and granted the power of a Wraith's Blade. By dual wielding these Mythical weapons, the Paradox is a "Glass Cannon".

===== Gameplay & Mechanics =====

Playstyle is most similar to Graverobber, likes to move around with high damage but has very low Hp (12 Base).
The Combat Reave Ability has potential synergy with buff teams to stack up a mega buff.

Passive: Crits grants flat Hp stacks per Battle. Deathdoor grants low Death Res and partial Damage Reflection.
Death Rec: Protection, stress heal and stress dmg taken. Heartattack debuff: Heavy reduced Max Hp, increased dmg taken, increased healing.

Reave Combat Status: Steals ALL buffs, debuffs, and status effects caused by combat skills other than Stunlock Debuff, passive Riposte/Stealth.
By Default, this also excludes Item and Camp Buffs.
(Note: Careful not to use this on any class that has Skill specific buffs!)
(Note: Moves that reduce the user's Max Hp do not activate Deathsdoor effects!)

===== Compatibility =====

This mod does not require DLC.

This Mod just wouldn't be here if it weren't for McTrance Fox/Addict Fox, I have learned so much.
I couldn't thank you enough for inspiring me to try and create something...
