Class Mechanics
Bear Form
When Beornings gather sufficient Wrath they can take the form of a great bear to unleash attacks on their foes.
Beornings are designed to be a dynamic skin-changer class. A Beorning can alternate back and forth between forms (or stances) almost at will, dependent only upon their level of Wrath. There are two ways to do so:
- use the skill Bear-form (Beorning Skill) or Man-form (Beorning Skill).
- use another skill that changes your form automatically (Thrash - Tier 1 (Beorning Skill) for Bear-form and Slash (Beorning Skill) for Man-form).
A Beorning's basic skills emphasize the difference between Man and Bear Forms. There are skills available in three different ways -- those available in Man Form; those available in Bear Form; and those available in either form.
Wrath
As a Beorning, you have a new vital named Wrath that replaces Power. Wrath builds up in combat through use of your skills. Many of your Man form skills will build wrath, allowing you to skin-change into a Bear. In Bear Form you unlock access to more potent, Wrath consuming skills. Wrath state is not maintained between logons so your character will always start with zero Wrath upon login.
Skill overview
Default Skills
These skills are granted automatically as you gain levels. The effects of many of these skills are improved in various ways by your choice of specialization and how you spend your trait points. Some skills may also be replaced by an improved version of the same skill as you increase in level.
