Malak Leader Ability
First of all - no, I don't think this will be added. No, I don't think it ever should be added. Yes, it breaks up at least two different, and better, teams. This is just some theorycrafting for the sake of it.
Sith Usurper (Leader)
At the start of battle, Sith Tanks Taunt for 1 turn and all other allies gain Stealth for 1 turn. Allies have +10% Defense, Max Health and Tenacity for each Sith Empire ally present at the start of battle. If all allies were Sith Empire and no other allies have the leader tag:
- Darth Malak is immune to Fear, gains an additional 10% Defense, Max Health and Defense for each Sith Empire ally present, and whenever he Taunts, it cannot be dispelled
- Allied Bastila Shan (Fallen) can't be targeted by an enemy with Corrupted Battle Meditation and assists whenever Darth Malak uses an ability
- Whenever an ally is inflicted with Stun, they gain 100% turn meter and 100% Tenacity until they are damaged
- Whenever Darth Malak uses his basic ability, he gains Retribution for 1 turn
Enemy Darth Revan loses 20% Speed whenever he inflicts Darth Malak with a debuff, which can't be resisted, until the start of their next turn. If Darth Revan is the enemy leader, enemies have -2% Critical Chance and Health Steal for each debuff on them, and whenever an ally Sith Empire Tank takes damage, they gain 1 stack of Bulwark (stacking) until the start of their next turn. Darth Malak gains the granted ability Agonise.
Agonise: Target other ally takes damage equal to 50% of their Max Health and is inflicted with Blind for 1 turn and Daze for 2 turns, which can't be prevented, dispelled or resisted, then Darth Malak dispels all debuffs on himself, recovers Health equal to the damage dealt, and gains 10% Max Health (stacking) until the end of the encounter. This damage ignores protection. This ability can't be used on an ally with more than 80% Health, and can't be used on that ally again until they fall below 80% Health again.
Bulwark: +150% Defense per stack; lose one stack of Bulwark when receiving damage
This would give him a ton more survivability, with nods to Bastila being his apprentice for a brief period and anti-DR synergy. It would also encapsulate his unwillingness to work with those who could lead against him (definitely not for game balance, cough) and his predilection to backstab his allies for his own survival. Again, this is just for fun and not meant to be taken too seriously.
