The Slayer - WPS

The Slayer is an agile and cunning fighter who battles all manner of monsters. They have extensive knowledge of various kinds of enemy as well as the mobility and skills to take them on. A slayer typically wields spear and shield to protect their allies from the enemy, or focuses on ranged attacks with a pair of crossbows to slaughter their opponents in droves.

Agility grants the slayer 1% dodge and 1% crit chance with ranged attacks per 10 points.

The Slayer has 6 ammo for each crossbow when fighting at a range. The Slayer does not auto-attack with the bows. Their abilities will drain ammo from one, or both bows.
The slayer has access to the "Reload" Ability, which causes them to channel for 5(haste) seconds whilst they reload the bow with the least ammo in it. The slayer cannot perform any other actions whilst reloading. Attacks that use only one ammo will prioritize using ammo from the bow with the most in it, whilst those that use two require an ammo from each bow.


That's the numbers shit out of the way.
