Patch 2.0

Howdy folks!

I have been taking time to go through earlier playbooks and redesign mechanics and advances in light of some recent playtest feedback and thoughts about player agency prompted by a discussion with friends. Because of this, I decided to give the Umbral Avenger a massive overhaul in terms of its focus and improving the active elements of its kit.

Prior to this overhaul, a lot of the advances for this class felt very passive or not useful until a later point in the class' development. Given Slayers' focus on trying to get combat up and running from the get go, I decided that this did not feel appropriate for a starting point for the playbook. As a result, I have tweaked costs for Abyssal Favors, increased the base damage dealt, and added in more ways to impart the theme of raging/caring avenger through the retooled advances. It is my hope that these changes add a bit more diversity and active components to the class that give more ways to focus your approach to playing the class.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me so far and I look forward to any future support you are able to give as I continue to work on this project.

Best wishes,

Angela
