The Soothsayer Class Mod

Description
The Soothsayer Class Mod

Introduction
Welcome everyone! I'm happy to finally publish my first class mod, it was a lot of work for me so I'm happy to let everyone try this new class.
The Soothsayer is a class that was designed to be felt like a vanilla class, with no complex mechanics and trying to fill one of the maybe less common role: Stress-Healer.

The Soothsayer's gameplay involves playing with her stress levels, she can stress-heal her allies and stock stress to become more powerful with her offensive abilities, and she can also ocuppy the support role.
But letting the soothsayer acummulate stress can be a risky strategy, since she has a higher chance of getting afflictions than virtues, and no trinket or quirk can change that.
She also can get a custom affliction called "Psychosis", this affliction can be really annoying in battle by stressing her allies and doing random actions.

i think she is very good and pretty fun too

I love this absolute contrast. Zorlond: OP too stronk for their intended purpose. chad4hale: This character is ass. They need buffs.

By herself in isolation, or with vanilla, not OP. But unfortunately, mixed with any class that builds stress easily either as a downside to their normal strength (such as Thrall or Sisters), or as a means to increase their strength (such as Celt or Keeper), this class breaks balance. Calm Mind buff for an entire battle? Thrall no longer risks ever going berserk on the party. Celt can hit 75 stress and stay near there indefinitely.

Just a rather unfortunate, likely unintended, circumstance. I normally love cross-class cooperation. But this just can't go in my roster without breaking the game.

i tried her twice, was very dissapointed with her damage, and stuns. Buff her so she is on par with jester please, maybe a little stronger even.

Thank you @Krise

For anyone wanting to remove the stun on her stress heal: Go to <Path-to-your-steam>\steamapps\workshop\content\262060\1834134425\heroes\soothsayer, then open the file soothsayer.info.darkest with a text editor and remove the text "sooth_stunlow" from all levels of her stress healing skill (the first skill)

hey I like this mod a lot, but the stun on the stress heal is totally unnecessary and rather excessive in a game like this. If you *really* feel the need for it to have some kind of debuff so as to match the vision you have for this character you might wanna consider aiming somewhere else (although IMO the fact that you're spending a turn to stress heal a single target, while also gaining a considerable amount of stress yourself, seems like a fair trade off from a balance perspective).

@LokiLaufey
