Character Idea: Arcann

Arcann:
Dark Side, Attacker
Enduring attacker with exceptional command of the Force.

Empowered Blast (Basic):
Arcann blasts a single target with lightning, dealing special damage and inflicting Speed Down for 2 turns. All Force Manifestations are called to assist. This attack cannot be avoided or resisted.

Leaping Smash (Special):
Arcann leaps into the fray, dealing physical damage to all enemies and inflicting Shock for 2 turns on enemies affected by Speed Down.
(Cooldown: 3 turns)

Force Manifestation (Special):
Arcann calls on the Force to form an entity that lasts for 5 of Arcann's turns. This entity only takes special damage, cannot be debuffed, and has max health, protection and damage equal to 30% of Arcann's and speed equal to 200% of Arcann's. The entity attacks automatically and can only use Empowered Blast on a random target. (Cooldown: 2 turns)

Attuned Force Barrier (Special):
Arcann reflects all incoming damage and effects for 2 turns. While this effect is active, Arcann has -50% speed and cannot use any other abilities. Force Manifestations' speed is unaffected. (Cooldown: 4 turns)

The Scorned Son (Unique):
Arcann has 80% counter chance, cannot be Ability Blocked, and gains a heal over time effect (5%) for each active Force Manifestation, lasting as long as the entities do. Arcann's counterattacks and bonus attacks are not Empowered Blast, but a physical lightsaber strike dealing bonus damage equal to 20% of the target's max health ignoring their armour.

    I don't think he should inflict shock as it would take away palps one unique debuff and he already isn't that great.


    Sadly, Count Dooku also inflicts shock with his Force Lightning, and this infact gives synergy with Palpatine and Dooku so it could be quite useful :)
  • I think this is a great idea, but his unique just makes it OP. I'd make it just be unable to be ability blocked and maybe give him a bonus healing from Manifestations during the Barrier effect.

    I agree with this, I'll soon edit the unique to not prevent ability block as it does do enough already. Thanks for the input!

    Dooku you have to level up all the way and work on him. Also he only has a 50% chance. Where as this idea would be better at inflicting shock than palp and dooku combined. No shock shouldn't just be given to any character. Let it be the way it is.


    I'd advise reading up on Arcann's character in the Star Wars universe, to realise that he's far from just any character. He's definitely deserving of shock, it's not a unique debuff like fracture or armour shred is.
