Subclass Skills (5)
Lunge
The Duelist takes one step forward. Their Breath is calm, measured, patience before the storm. The target is Challenged: from this moment, only the Duelist stands before them.
En Garde
The Duelist's Breath becomes perfect calm. Every attack received is an opening to exploit, and the counter strikes before the aggressor has even finished their motion. Challenged targets pay double for the audacity.
Riposte
The Duelist suspends their Breath. Everything that touches them comes back with interest, damage and debuffs alike, and the Challenged attacker discovers their own strike will be their final lesson.
Expose Weakness
The Duelist's Breath reads the opponent's movements. Every gap in the guard is a sentence: the target becomes Exposed, guard broken, ready for the deciding blow.
Coup de Grâce
The Duelist exhales all their Breath into a perfect strike. The final point of a duel already won. Against a Challenged target the sentence falls heavier, against one Challenged and Exposed it is beyond appeal.
