Sneak’s Serpent – Class Mod

This is my first very own class mod, inspired by the Pliskin out of the Shieldbreaker DLC.
It is one of my goals to add a lot of enemies as playable heroes, and this is my first one.
Since I have to work with the animations the game provides, these kind of mods can look a bit stiff outside of combat, but I’ve done my best to make it look good, and I’m pretty satisfied with the result.

The Serpent is a powerful debuffer and blighter, but he doesn’t have a lot of health or basic damage. His skills also move him around a lot, but this ability to jump makes him viable in any position.

Skills:

Infuse: The Serpent leaps forwards and bites an opponent, delivering a potent venom.
