Tiur, the Gnosis
Everyone
New Class
So, it's Don't Trust the Internet day. Normally I would pick on everyone and put up something that, while hilarious to me, actually made people a little annoyed at playing.
Not this year!
Instead, I give you access to a Bad Idea Class. There are many BICs, like Jesters, anything with Vodun, and the short-lived werehamster... but this one is special, because it actually works.
I give you: Savant
SAVANT
------
Look at what skills you have and may use.
SAVANT EMBRACE
--------------
Embrace the Savant form, abandoning your class (temporarily) to use only the skills you have learned as a Savant. Any mobile killed while a Savant may potentially teach you one of its abilities! Don't mind the crazy names, or the complete inapropriate nature of some of them... mobiles learn odd things sometimes. If you learn a more powerful version of an ability, it will replace the old. Cannot learn from Eld or Vermin. Or any instantkills.
SAVANT RELEASE
--------------
Go back to being a boring, normal class. You will remember savant things, but cannot use them.
SAVANT MIMIC <ability> ON <target>
----------------------------------
Use an ability you've copied! Its mana cost and equilibrium use is related to the relative power level of the ability.
This is going to break. Just have fun. Don't BUG or ISSUE unless you're stuck or something. Message me if something is outright broken and unfun, but this is just a silly day!
-T
PS: Yes, you only start with a baby humgii punch. You'll have to use that to work your way up to more interesting attacks!

A few things though...
1) Can you change the Savant skills by power instead of by what your newest attack is?
2) Add in Savant into GMCP under the Class section?
Also.... I'm looking at Savant like a new pokemon game. Gotta catch all the Mimics. Gotta fill my MimicDex.
MAybe it can GEt another limited release at some point? seems a shame you work so much on something that only airs for a day
THANK YOU.
(Bring it back pretty please)
If you dropped the balance down to a 5s eq base for anything over 100 power, I'd say it would be a solid bashing class. Furthermore, you could leave that as your PVE class and then refocus everything in the normal classes as a way to do PVP. Having a clear separation between the two is not necessarily a bad thing.
Love it overall though. Great new design/mechanic... even if it was for only a day. Hope you refine it a little bit and then re-release it.
This is mine.
Side note, there was a bug with honeybee:sting...
I had at one point 25 bees following me around, which was hilarious and annoying I suppose.

Last wasp to cross honey gang territory got LIT UP:
Cooking wasps for days. Honey gang cuz.
^ The last time a wasp ran up.
Also we are whatever that kind of bee is that vibrates to cook things and kill them with body heat....VIBRO-BEES! ROLL OUT

This man is still alive.
