Description:

The practice of resonation has been long forgotten, but was once used by ancient guardians to protect their emperor from angered gods. Yet a few still remain. By controlling the resonance of your soul, you awaken the ancient power of turning pain into strength. Use it to make your enemy regret ever attacking you and protect those you hold dear.

NEW MECHANIC!

The resonator is a masochistic tank class that primarily uses warfare and aerotheurge with a sound theme. Just like how a guitar string resonates at a higher frequency the shorter it is, your attacks will get stronger the more you get wounded. Empower your abilities by getting attacked by enemies and obtain resonation. Resonation is a resource that certain abilities consume to either deal more damage or do additional effects. Resonation acts like the sound of souls and is stored in your shield. Therefore a shield is required to play this class (one is granted through the preset class) The better you manage your resonation the more effective the class will be in combat. It’s a high risk high reward class and comes with 21 new skills (with more planned, as I work on balancing), tons of new statuses and effects!

Planned additions

I plan on making a shield expansion in the future, which can be used as an addon for the mod. However, two handed shields may not be possible because of the engine’s limitations.
