Pirate Legend (Not real)!

So I was bored, and thought of a rough outline for the Pirate Legend class. Seeing as how Evan and Aran have a unique system to them, being Combo and Evolution, I'd decided to add one to this class as well: Introducing, the Soldier . The soldier class is the legend of the Pirate Class (Of course, this would never happen. It's hardly related!). The class is unique in that it combines two weapons that you normally wouldn't see used together - Guns and Daggers. That means the class can equip a dagger and a gun, and regardless of the balance patch, the difference it that instead of shooting at close ranges, the character will attack with his dagger instead, automatically switching the weapons. Of course, this also means the character has some unique dagger and gun skills, allowing you to somewhat choose a path between the two, a hybrid, or heavy focus on one of the two. The soldier is a somewhat difficult character to level, but you're rewarded with strong supportive abilities and terrific attacking abilities. HP will be medium-high, higher than Bowmasters and Gunslingers, but lower than Warriors. MP is equal to a Gunslinger/Nightlord/Bowmaster. Also, a unique anti-leeching level system is employed. The character's leveling is like any other Maplestory character, but instead of changing jobs, the characters "ranks up". You start as a Cadet, and you rank to Lieutenant, Captain, Major, Colonel, Brigadier, General, and Marshall. Marshall is achieved at level 130, unlike the other jobs stopping at 120. Cadet is level 10, then Captain is 30. Major is 50, Colonel is 70, Brigadier is 90, General is 110, and Marshall is 130. But what's the anti-leeching system? In this case, monster kills will determine if you're able to rank up to the next rank. They have to be monsters that are either in a certain range of your level, if in a party, or killed by you. So for example, if you were a Cadet at level 30, but only killed 1200/1500 monsters required to get to the next rank (I'm doing a rough guess, I'm sure the game mechanics in reality would be much more fair), you'd have to keep killing until you reach the tally. This system should disable PG Leech at the least, as well as BF. Now for some abilities. As stated, the class wields both a dagger and a gun at the same time - not equipping one will not allow you to do moves from that skillset. The gun is the primary weapon, and the dagger is more of a secondary. Cadet Field Training - Increases Accuracy and will allow you to hold more bullets. Level 1 - +1 Accuracy, hold 10 more bullets. Level 20 - +20 Accuracy, hold 200 more bullets. Double Shot - Directly taken from Gunslinger. High Alert - Increases damage done by the dagger at close ranges, and adds a slight critical chance. Level 1 - 104% damage, 1% chance to Crit to do additional 2%. Level 20 - 160% damage, 20% chance to Crit to do additional 40% Captain Quick Scope - Increases the Firing Speed of your Gun. Does not affect Dagger. Same as Booster. LAW - Whip out

Kerning city for example, im sure that wasnt there in the '-30th' century. Im sure there were glowing whips in the '-30th' century too... OT: Its quite interesting, i mean, i wouldnt be too excited to play it, as it has nothing really 'special' such as Evans have their dragons, but still, good job .

[/quote] I suppose the "unique" part of this class is introducing delayed gratification - there's alot of cooldowns and delayed attacks, as well as Landmines.

Its unique but 0% chance of coming out nice ideas. It has been stated somewhere along the line that the pirate legend is directly connected to Kyrins father who disappeared,
