Class Suggestion - Luna

By LiketoMoveIt

[https://trello.com/b/E07Z3hHE/liketomoveit-s-workshop You have been cordially invited to my workshop! Feel free to visit anytime. Entry fee is free! :D]

Class Name: Luna

Main Role: Support

Sub-Role: Mage

'''Weapon: [https://gyazo.com/1dc1c4a97a22004ed2c3329d45aeb852 Selene's Staff, a Staff that has a crescent shaped bladed at the end, with a small lunar star resting on top of the staff's handle. Somewhat inspired by Diana's Crescent Blade from League of Legends.] '''



Animations + Postures: 

'''Idle + Unequipped: [https://gyazo.com/fc1affd93e40bb5db74850f6130b59b6 Selene's Staff rests on Luna's back. Luna stands like a normal ROBLOXian.] '''

'''Idle + Equipped: [https://gyazo.com/45c8391ad14dcf85ab78f1f8f4aa0088 Luna uses their left hand to grab their staff. They then give their staff to their right hand to hold. Unequipping will cause Luna to reverse this step to unequip.] '''

Walking + Equipped: Self-explanatory, but Luna leans forward slightly. 

'Basic Attack Combo Sequence - Luna will jab with their staff, impaling enemies. They then proceed to do a diagonal slash from the bottom left to top right, before doing a quick clockwise spin. They end this combo with a quick radial blast around them, granting nearby allies 0.05 additional defense for 2 seconds.'

Description: Luna is a mage who uses the moon to support their teammates. Luna focuses on increasing their allies' defense and at the same time heal them. Luna is able to control multiple zones with usage of their placed Lunar Zones. However, Luna themselves is very fragile, and even with allies, they can still die easily. Luna also has no damage buffs, which means that they deal less total damage than most classes.

Abilities:

[Passive] - Lunar Energy: Instead of a mana bar, Luna uses a different type of resource called Moonlight. This bar will not refill passively. Instead, Luna needs to create a Lunar Zone in order to refill their bar.

[E] - Lunar Zone: Luna creates a circular zone at their cursor. This zone grants allies an additional .1 defense if they're standing in it, as well as healing them every couple of seconds they stand in it. Zones last for some time. Luna can refill their Moonlight by standing inside the zone. Luna can only have 3 zones up at a time, and the buffs and heals do not stack.

{Zone has a diameter of 15 studs, heals 2-4 health every 2 seconds. Costs no Moonlight, refills Moonlight by 5 each second, zones last 20 seconds. Can be cast at a maximum of 30 studs away from Luna.}

[Z] - Healing Twilight: Luna raises their staff up, charging it with Moonlight for 0.5 seconds. They then do a quick clockwise spin, healing all allies around them, as well as increasing their defense by 0.2 for 3 seconds. Luna can still move while charging their staff.

{Total diameter is 10 studs, originating from Luna. Heals 7 health. Costs 20 Moonlight to cast. Cooldown of 7 seconds.)

[X] - Moonfall: Luna summons moon shards to fall onto their current Lunar Zones, causing the Lunar Zones to explode, dealing damage to enemies and reducing their speed by 0.1 for 3 seconds. Allies hit have their defense increased by 0.2 for 3 seconds. Lunar Zones last 5 seconds longer, since the moon shard adds energy to the zone.

{Costs 30 Moonlight to cast. 10 second cooldown. Cannot be cast if no Lunar Zones are present. Deals damage ranging from 4-6.)

[C] - Moonlight Refuge: This ability is a toggle ability. When toggled on, Luna will create a zone from the top of their staff. The zone follows the player's cursor, up to a certain range. Allies inside the zone are healed each second, and their defense increases by 0.02 each second, stacking up to 10 times. Costs Moonlight each second to keep this ability on, and Lunar Zones do not replenish Moonlight during this ability.

{Requires 20 Moonlight to toggle on, costs 2 Moonlight each second. Heals 1 or 2 health each second. Maximum range of 30 studs. Zone has a diameter of 20 meters. Luna has their movement reduced by 0.3 during this ability. Cooldown of 12 seconds.}

[V] - Moonlight Shadow: Luna will spin their staff above them for 2 seconds. After that time, Luna strikes their staff down into the ground, causing them to go invisible for 5 seconds, and granting them .3 movement for 5 seconds. Allies hit by this ability have their movement increased by 0.5 for 3 seconds. Enemies hit have their defense and damage reduced by 0.15 for 3 seconds.

{Costs 40 Moonlight. Cooldown of 30 seconds. Luna cannot move during the 2 seconds wind-up time. Diameter of 20 studs, and originates from Luna.)

FUN FACTS:

1.) Did you know that LiketoMoveIt actually thought of this class while he was still trying to sleep? Yea, sometimes good ideas can come from sleeping.

2.) Moonlight Refuge was inspired by the Dark Rider's healing ability from Qaeo's game, Black Magic.

3.) Selene is the goddess of the moon. Yep.

4.) Moonlight Shadow is a song, and the ability is also inspired by a hero's ultimate ability from DotA 2, although LiketoMoveIt can't remember the name of the hero.

UPDATE LOG:

None yet. I may need your help to rename the C ability, since it makes it feel like its too repetitive, as it repeats the word "Moonlight" a few times. That's annoying IMO.
