In my experience, his guard skill does feel a bit weird, a buff to prot and dodge is nice but usually when trinketing you focus either on prot or dodge. His predation skill does feel a bit redundant only being usuable on rank 1 againt rank 1 comparing it to a Plague Doctor's disorienting blast, Leper's purge or Daemon's pull, it's not reliable enough to self heal in death's door, In my opinion it should be a big finishing move that does increased damage against bleeding targets and heal him by a sizeable chunk, at the cost of reverting him to the base form and putting his transform on a cooldown.

This might be a nitpick, but Beastar seems like too much on the nose. Great class all around.

@WaspBot75 Thanks for the feedback! Some of the things you said i considered already when making the class but had to keep him this way to make him lore accurate (i made him just for fun after all). I will tweak his healing and predation skill though.
Edit: Also the guard skill to grant -crits received instead of dodge.

I'm not an expert, but I want to share my experience. I feel like he's a bit underpowered, as far as I can tell Beastar is a damage-focused Abomination, but that damage itself isn't enough considering his damage buff only lasts for 3 rounds, he puts a lot of stress on himself every round, and his heal is hard to implement. Also, if you don't want to get stressed, then you use the "human" form, abilities in this form are useful, but definitely not useful enough to use this form entirely, so we only have beast form that doesn't have enough damage and stresses Beastar. Since everyone is already used to going into beast form only as a last resort when we need extra damage (Abomination, Lamia, etc), but the damage in beast form is still not enough to make it attractive. He has a lot of useful tools in beast form, but they do not pay off the stress, because in the form of a beast we want to end the fight as quickly as possible or not to go into this form at all, then we remain in human form, as abomination does for the most part, but human form is rather weak and does not allow at least minimal compensation for the damage suffered in the form of a beast. Summing up, he is an interesting, moderately strong character, but personally I don’t want to take him to the dungeon. Anyway i like this character and i want to thank you for sharing it with us :)

@maktavi77 Thanks for the feedback and the kind words! I will take this into consideration for future patches/updates.

Really cool mod! I don't know if you're still updating but I have a few suggestions. I think it would look better if you recoloured the hair on his head to be the same as his body, to match the anime and manga a bit better. As for skills, it would be cool if his move "The Danger" could be used a little further back since it's a forward move skill. The skill "Predation" is pretty weak for it's requirements and debuff, and is only really usable in very specific scenarios, I think it would be better if it didn't have the bleed requirement, could target corpses at any health amount, and granted a buff until camp. It still wouldn't be a super reliable self-heal but it would be a lot more useful for stacking buffs in long missions.

@leviathantb Thanks for the suggestions, some of those i had thought of... The problem is i don't really have Darkest Dungeon on steam, i asked a friend to upload it for me and i didn't want to bother him for all the patches i had planned. But i'll try and buff Legoshi and ask my friend if he would help me upload it!

@leviathantb BTW you CAN hit corpses even at 0% chance to hit! That's a vanilla game mechanic.
