Skrimisher

[bubbaberet]

Its just bad. Its an annoying class to play as and play against its primary purpose is harassing archers but an archer who isn't terrible can easily beat it in a 1v1 if he lands a few arrows and most of the time its just you running from swordsmen until you get hit with a few arrows or run out of space to run. I'm not saying give it speed 2 that was bullcrap and it was impossible to catch but it pays heavily for speed 1 with a sword degrade and significant armor reduction from the standard swordsman here are ideas:

1. Let it see enemy health
2. Give it a spear or bow
3. Attacks slow

Maybe make it specifically an archer killer and give it proj prot?

An iron sword would buff it up pretty nicely and would kind of play like old Dol Amorath but without spears.

Let us remember Ithilien Soldier from the old Osgiliath map... Basically a Skirmisher with a diamond sword. That was a real fun class for picking off archers and lonely players. It had speed and jump boost allowing it to quickly retreat when it got tough. Was a great class if played/used well. The damage dealt by the weapon perfectly compensated it's low defensive abilities.[user avatar="https://cravatar.eu/helmavatar/sjoerdtim/74.png" name="sjoerdtim"]960266[/user] *cough* (Subtle hints)

Dol amroth had diamond leggins...
