You should know..

These are 3 separate clans which have different play styles and their own skill combos. Only One Clan Stance can be activated once, they offsets each other. Note: I didn’t make starter skills in preset, so you have to buy the skill book from vendors, each clan’s stance requires Polymorph 1 to learn.

Rodent Clan

A clan lives in darkness and unspoken places. You can steal your targets’ stats(Sitting Duck) and become yours(Petty Theft) by using some skills of this clan. This clan is ideally made for thieves but not confined to it, any class can access to it. It’s the most powerful clan in the early or early-middle stage and its growth curve is smoother than other 2 clans’, so even in the late stage it’s still even in every aspect, no conspicuous shortage.

  • AP Consumption:★★☆☆☆
  • Damage:★★★★☆
  • Nuke:★★★☆☆
  • Tank:★★★☆☆
  • Support:★★☆☆☆
  • Disable:★★★☆☆
  • Escape:★★★★★
  • Difficulty to use:★★★☆☆


Conclusion: Rodent Clan is the master of snatching stats and fooling enemies around, the longer the battle lasts, the stronger it is(stacking stats from enemies). It may not has the most damage(however it does have the most sadistic ultimate) in the late game but definitely the most fun clan to play with.

Shark Clan

They are apex predators in ocean. This clan is served to make Hydrosophist Battle Mage, for such a long time Hydrosophist has been treated mostly as a support, now it’s time for the comeback. You have chance to inflict Haemorrhage(Bleeding Damage) on enemies by using most skills of this clan, then you can trigger Bloodthirst (Haemorrhage is the premise for triggering Bloodthirst), which boosts your stats but lower your resistances. If you cast your skill upon Water surface or being Wet, you can activate Ocean Lord, which highly boosts your Hydrosophist ability. It’s a tank in the beginning but will gradually become the most horrifying DPS as you level up.

  • AP Consumption:★★★★☆
  • Damage:★★★★☆
  • Nuke:★★★★★
  • Tank:★★★★★
  • Support:★★★☆☆
  • Disable:★★★☆☆
  • Escape:★☆☆☆☆
  • Difficulty to use:★★★☆☆


Conclusion: Tanky and magically violent, but has a vacuum period after all damage skills are used for stacking Bloodthirst. It still preserves the function of a support and a disabler. An all-rounded clan in my opinion.

Hawk Clan

A clan rules forest and sky moiety.You have chance to suck AP and initiative from enemies(Roc Penalty) and become yours(Roc Bonus) by using some skills of this clan. You are granted 1 more AP Maximum and 1 more AP Start. You can also manipulate AP usage much more flexibly any anyone else. But it’s extremely scared of being Flanked and Webbed! This clan is made the most suitable for rangers but still, there’s no confinement.

  • AP Consumption:★★★★★
  • Damage:★★★★★
  • Nuke:★★★★★
  • Tank:★★☆☆☆
  • Support:★☆☆☆☆
  • Disable:★★☆☆☆
  • Escape:★★★★☆
  • Difficulty to use:★★★★★


Conclusion: It’s the hardest clan among these three, but it’s commensurate with this difficulty considering you can possibly eliminate all in the late games in 2 turns if use well. It especially suits people who like to calculate AP management or simply just like to have very much AP in hand, as who doesn’t want infinite AP?

Skill List

There are still a lot that I can’t elaborate in every aspect, because many skills and statuses are very hard to explained in short. Therefore I strongly recommend you to check the Skill List I adhere below:

And try to experience in game at the same time. Then you will have a comprehensive understanding.

Vendors

Each clan has its own vendor. New skill books appear at Lv.1, Lv.4, Lv.9, Lv.13, Lv.16, and Lv.17

Fort Joy
Shark Vendor: Near the beach where crab Septa is wandering. Coordinates: X:129 Y:155
Rodent Vendor: Beside Shark Vendor. Coordinates: X:119 Y:145
Hawk Vendor: On a rock next to Maol. Coordinates: X:138 Y:109

Reaper’s Coast
Shark Vendor: On the beach outside the fish factory, near dwarf Kannox. Coordinates: X:285 Y:55
Rodent Vendor: In a room of the fish factory. Coordinates: X:307 Y:100
Hawk Vendor: Outside the fish factory. Coordinates: X:320 Y:48

Arx
Shark Vendor: On an abandoned beach beside Arx’s Gate. Coordinates: X:257 Y:251
Rodent Vendor: Above the Scoundrel vendor. Coordinates: X:258 Y:320
Hawk Vendor: At a small dock where the Aerotheurge vendor locates. Coordinates: X:324 Y:352

Clan Bosses

Three clans correspond to three bosses respectively: Giant Rat, Jaws and Roc. They are all Lv.15 and located in somewhere in Reaper’s Coast. A little hint: Sawmill, Oil Pump, Alice Alisceon. They possess all the common skills(not include the Lv.16 skill) of each of their clans, but Giant Rat is an exception. Beating them will give you their skill book in advance, but you can still buy their skill book when you hit Lv.17.

Additional

I primarily made this mod for fun so it may seems unbalanced(but I think no mod can 100% ensure it’s balanced, and in fact I worked for quite a long time to make it balanced as much as I can and remain its playability at the same time). You may want to strengthen your foes in any way you want by any other mods. If you like this mod, please add to favorite and rate!
