"People fear, not death, but having life taken from them. Many waste the life given to them, occupying themselves with things that do not matter. When the end comes, they say they did not have time enough to spend with loved ones, to fulfill dreams, to go on adventures they only talked about... But why should you fear death if you are happy with the life you have led, if you can look back on everything and say, 'Yes, I am content. It is enough.'" ~Wynne, Dragon age Origins

Update 3.0

Part III: is up :3

 

N7g2Z0U.png

 

Overview: The Sol Mystic is a powerful vessel hunter and fighter. In order to access their fullest potential, the player must use their summoned weapons which grant two powerful abilities otherwise hidden. This encourages resource management since the Sol Knight, even if very powerful will fall short if their resources are incorrectly used.

 

Description: The Sol Mystic Knights are the newest branch of the Mystic Knights paladin order. The Sol Mystics are also known as the Banes of St. Waidwen Martyr. The Sol Mystics became fugitives from Raedceras after they turned their back on St. Waidwen after he decided to invade Dyrwood. In order to escape percecution or zealous attacks they accepted conscription into the Mystic Knights in a controversial series of events brought fourth by the Luna Mystics. The Sol Mystics as Raedcerans are perhaps the most hated of the order, they work dilligently to find their place in the Aedyr Empire. What cannot be denied by the common and noble folk of the Aedyr Empire however, is that they are the best vessel hunters.

 

Dispositions: +Benevolent and Honest -Deceptive and Cruel

 

Ability list per power level:

  1. Sunbeam
  2. -
  3. Splinters of the Godhammer
  4. -

  7. Sunlance
  8. -
  9. Light of Eothas

 

  • Abilities granted by spiritual weapon: Sprites of Sunlight (missiles that cause great fire damage) and Sol rush (Charge that attacks everyone in the way of the Sol knight and their chosen enemy)

 

Drawback: Loses access to paladin fire Abilities and faltering faith debuff makes them lose most of the bonus from Faith and Conviction

Hey all,

I have a few questions, it might be a bit far fetched to get a reply now that Deadfire is coming to a close, but anyways.

  1. Do you feel I should lower cost of abilities? or do you think the balance is pretty good?
  2. I would like to do something special for the closing of Deadfire, if I find the time. What would you like to see? 
  3. How do you feel about special trinkets for each Mystic knight class? Maybe a transformation or a special ability?
  4. Do you want me to expand my headcannon for these subclasses, are you interested in me providing some fan-lore for these classses?

Thank you all for supporting my mod, my venture in the Deadfire has been amazing thanks to you all, the PoE slack, and the wonderful Obsidian developers :}

I may make a couple mods in the future for Deadfire, if I find the motivation, but otherwise see you in these forums in the meantime or the next Pillars game or The Outer Worlds forums.
