Description:
The Reckoner Class

The Reckoner class is blend of a skirmisher with LWOTC’s assault class, using shotguns or bullpups as their primary and the ripjack as their secondary. The class focuses on using the ripjacks mobility to bring out the best of the shotguns point blank prowess, with the idea being a "high risk, high reward" play style.

The 3 specializations for the class are as follows:

  • Executioner – Focuses on taking advantage of the ripjacks ability to place the soldier in the middle of a group of enemies, making point blank flanking shots exceptionally deadly.
  • Skirmisher – Focuses on getting the most out of the ripjack and the traditional hit-and-run play style of the skirmishers.
  • Juggernaut – Focuses of survivability and reactions, making the vanguard’s very presence a threat to enemies.

The class also has a XCOM ability row and a pistol row per LWOTC standard.

Requirements
  • Long War of the Chosen
  • Skirmisher Abilities For Soldiers Animation Patch – Not 100% required, but soldiers will T-pose when performing certain ripjack abilities without it.
  • Surplus Class Icons Pack – The class uses an icon from this pack

Compatibility
  • Any skirmisher ability mod or re-balance should work fine with this class assuming the mod updates the existing skirmisher abilities instead of creating new ones.

Credits
  • Mitzruti for making my dream of having XCOM soldiers using the ripjack not look super janky with the above animation patch.
  • Tzarnal for the cool icon this class uses as I’m not artsy enough to make my own.
  • Kiruka as I used their class mods as a example for this one. You should check out their class mods, they’re pretty cool.
