Samurai/R?nin(pvp only class exclusive)

Class description- a master of stances a samurai/r?nin is a master of the sword. Able to use it in many different ways like the warrior, he is king of the battlefield.
Lore – coming from cantha these heroes mystically entered an asura gate that suddenly opened in their country. entering it thy found themselves at the mist. now able to test their strength versus other elite warriors of

stances taken from elemetalist attunements the samurai stances are 4 (F1-4), plus a adrenaline bar( Bushid?) that fills up, to open your ultimate skill Seppuku mode. explained in bottom

traits
Judan-gamae(Power) – stance (F1) an aggressive posture this stance allowed the user to pull off more aggressive attacks pressuring the defender to make mistakes and to take advantage of it with accurate powerful strikes (cool down 10secs)

Iaido(pracision&condition)- stance (F2) a Techniques that involves smooth, controlled movement of drawing a sword from its sheath(or returning to stance with greatsword and fan) cutting an opponent, removing blood from the blade and placing it back in its sheath/sweeping the blood away with a heavy weapon. (cool down 10 sec)

discipline( like a warriors).

Horse Stance (defense,toughness&healing)-stance (F3) coming from the concept when samurai rode horses into battle. Positioning the body as low as possible this stance is very strong allowing the samurai to pull of defensive maneuvers to keep him alive, an example can be, I’m getting attacked by a thief he stealth’s, lands behind me, I quickly switch to F3 with my giant fan on and use sweeping wave- knocking him back. (cool down 10 sec)

Bushid?( vitality& boon)- meaning the way of the warrior, the samurai felt that path of the warrior was one of honor, emphasizing duty to ones master, loyalty unto death.

Bushid? – by gaining Bushid? through your actions in a fight u have the chance to going into Seppuku mode (f4) taken in all incoming damage you are invincible for 5 seconds(berserker mode and gain 5 seconds of quickness and the end of this mode all damage done to you is sent back at attackers(200 rang) and you lose 50% of your health depending on your Bushid? bar. weapon skills vary. (cool down 25 seconds)

*locked until Bushid? is full
weapons: (2h) katana,(2h) greatsword),(2h)giant fan, dual katana, (1h) pistol

I feel as though this class should be a pvp exclusive before any expansion is out because 1 pvp is becoming stale with the meta we have now and with an addition of pvp only classes, it won’t hurt the game because they will come into pve later on. this might be a good way to allow more players into pvp because of these pvp early access classes(like call of duty DLC’S on the Xbox). I know it will not happen but having classes and gear that pve players don’t have a month or 2 out early will replace not having legendary’s in pvp in my opinion and shack up the pvp game.

*one with the leg open out is horse stance, to give you an idea and 1st one is Iaido, plus the giant fan.

  • the fight scene shows the two stances going at it , the one in the red is Judan-gamae and second one is more of a Iaido without him putting the sword back into its sheath and i forgot to mention 2h katana’s is what thy are using in the fight more of a 1 hand but takes up 2 because u can’t switch weapons.

A pvp exclusive class wouldn’t really work since PvP isn’t completely distant from PvE. All your characters start out in a PvE instance, all classes are free to move between all of the game modes. Locking it in the mists would be weird. And they would feel unsatisfying for any PvEer or WvWer who tries out the class, loves it but can’t play with it in the game mode they love

All a samurai was was the Japanese version of the knight and we already have a warrior so i dont see this happening. On top of that the whole seppuku mode thing makes no sense seppuku was ritual suicide . The other issues such as PvP locking it have already been covered so i wont go into that .

OP watches too much anime.
We already have warriors. It is essentially the same thing.

Also, seppuku mode? When you fill your gauge you kill yourself over your dishonor?
