The Over-Break System-Chapter 435 Tier-3 Primary Classes (5)

Although Cynrik had a lot to think about and planning needed to be done, he had to put it on hold and review the other members of the parties' new info.

Closing his eyes and bringing up the memory from a few minutes prior, when Brance sent him over all the notifications he had received during the Promotion, Cynrik felt ripped off once again.

-You have obtained the Primary Class Tier-3 Enforcer of the Holy Flame (Unique)-

-You have learned the Tier-3 Enforcer of the Holy Flame Skill: [Smite].-

[Tsk, how is this fair man? Not only did you not lose a single Tier-2 Class skill, but instead, they all powered up. Also, I know you have those golden chicken wings, but are you sure you're not a Pheonix? Because what the shit is with [Rebirth in Flames].] Cynrik complained as he sneakily massaged Selene's lower back.

[Are you seriously complaining again, Cyn? Come on; you have a Magic Sword Skill that brings your hidden blades to life.] Rolling his eyes, Brance brought up the skill description of [Rebirth In Flames] with reserved feelings.

-Tier-3 Enforcer of the Holy Flame Skill: [Rebirth in Flames]-

-Category: Active Skill.-

-This skill has two Functions, which must be determined during the formation of the Runic Diagram.-

-Function 1: Respec: Resets all Stats to their Base Value of 1: Returns all Basic Stats to the Allied Target as Free Allocation Stat Points to be redistributed.-

-Function 2: Baptism of Flames: Allows you to heal all Allied Individuals in a 10x10 meter radius back to 100% HP, 100% STAM, and 100% MP; the user is included.-

-Function 2A: (AOE Attack) All Undead, Demon, or Abyssal creatures in a 10x10 Meter radius will receive Holy Damage.-

-Cost: 50% of MAX Stamina and MP.-

-Damage Calc: INT Based.-

-F1 Cooldown: Can only be used Once a Year on an individual. 2-Hour Activation Cooldown.-

-F2 Cooldown: 24 hours.-

When Brance first read this skill as a notification, his mind went blank for several minutes. As far as utility skills go, could there possibly be a better one than this? Cynrik had been theorizing for years that there must be a way to Respec stats(reallocate the distribution of Stat points), and finally, after almost a decade and a half, such a skill had fallen into Brance's lap.

Still, the Respec was only one aspect of the skill; its Second Function allowed it to shine. Sure the cost was high, but as far as life-saving skills go, you couldn't get a better healing skill. To instantly heal the entire party back up to 100% in all Resource stats was quite busted.

However, with Great power comes a severe drawback: unless Brance constantly micromanages his STAM and MP, keeping both above 50%, he would never have the opportunity to use his new skill.

Lastly was Function 2A, which turned a healing skill into an overly aggressive and powerful AOE attack on any being of the Demon Race, Undead, or Abyssals. The damage was INT based, so Brance will be forced into adding points to INT from now on.

Last but not least, Brance's new offensive attack skill, [Smite]. The skill description was relatively straightforward; he could now summon down a Dual Elemental Mana (Light and HolyFire) bolt of lightning to deal massive amounts of damage to opponents. This damage was triple if used on Demons, Undead, or Abyssals.

[[Damn Brancie, you could have caused serious havoc with [Smite] if you got my Passing Down Quest.]] Selene chimed in as she read through the new skill.

[[No kidding, triple damage to all things unholy is kind of stupid, but it is an excellent tool to keep in our back pocket for a rainy day. Who knows what we will face when the shit hits the fan later on down the road.]] Cynrik added as he pulled up Selene's new data next.

-You have obtained the Tier-3 Primary Class Valkyrie of the Shadows (Unique)-

-All of your Former Class Distributions have been merged with your new distribution.-

-Your Stat Distribution has been adjusted; you will receive an additional 1 point in STR, DEX, and VIT upon increasing your Main Level.-

-For each increase in your Primary Class Level, you will receive an additional point to your Class Distribution.

-All your Tier-1 Thief Skills have been merged into the Tier-3 Valkyrie of the Shadows Skill [Assassin's Mind].-

-All of your Tier-2 Valk-Vanguard Skills have Evolved into their Tier-3 Forms. Their Costs and Cooldowns have been reduced slightly.-

-Your Shadow Manipulation has strengthened to Tier-3.5 (Beginner), from Tier-3 (Initial).-

-You have learned the Tier-3 Valkyrie of the Shadows Skill: [Skuggi Fjoturr].- (Shadow Shackle)

-You have learned the Tier-3 Valkyrie of the Shadows Skill: [Skuggi L?raer].- (Shadows Betrayal)

Cynrik fought back the urge to complain when he saw that, like his brother, Selene had only lost her Tier-1 skills while all her Tier-2 skills were upgraded. When his eyes spotted a similar skill shared between the two, Called [Warrior's/Assassin's Mind], which he had previously ignored, he decided to check it out; however, after reading through it, Cynrik wished he hadn't.

In principle, [Warrior's/Assassin's Mind] was a very simple skill that made no sense in the grand scheme of things; after all, how could a bunch of Tier-1 Skills become relevant as you got stronger over time? The answer was simple, create a generalized compendium of all the Tier-1 skills, and remove their Cooldown and Cost.

[Warrior's/Assassin's Mind] transformed all the Tier-1 Skills lost to the merger into techniques instead. The only difference between Selene's skill and Brance's was the fact that Selene was originally on the path to being an Assassin; thus, all her Tier-1 skills were tailored around that progression, whereas Brance was originally a Warrior.

[[Yall two fucking always gotta one-up me, don't you?]] Cynrik cursed as he glared at Brance and pinched Selene's ass.

[[Huh? What are you bitching about this time? Let me guess; it's the Mind skill. No one told you to be a basic ass bitch, Cyn.]] Brance snorted as he enjoyed seeing his brother suffer for once because things pertaining to Classes were entirely out of his OCD control.

Sucking his teeth, Cynrik ignored Brance's provocations and read through Selene's two new skills, one of which was a Crowd Control skill very similar to his [Shadow Sewing]. Only instead of tendrils, Selene manifests black chains meant solely for stunning or rooting her opponent in place.

Glancing through its description and noticing no offensive capabilities for the skill minus a slight corrosion toward the point of contact with the target, Cynrik thought the skill was "Okay" at best. Still, he knew in group battles; it would be pretty devastating for the opposition if he and Selene chose to lock down multiple enemies simultaneously.

Nodding and giving Selene a few gentle pats on the spot he pinched, Cynrik's full attention was drawn towards her final skill, one he found quite interesting.

-Cost: Depends on Targets Tier, Level, and Mind Stat.-

-Cooldown: 1 hour.-

[[Not gonna lie, that second skill is useful as fuck. Essentially you can steal your opponent's shadow, turning it into a minion similar to a Necromancers Undead. Since it's your skill, and we all know the descriptions leave out a lot because of the transfer of knowledge the CSH does, what don't I know?]] Cynrik asked as he leaned forward to rest his chin on Selene's shoulder.

[[Um, well, the shadows I take, known as "Foreign Shadows," have their own stats, basically 50% of their original owner's Stats. And if they die, that's all she wrote; there is no way to resummon them. Other than that, I can heal them by using Shadow Mana.]] Nuzzling Cynrik's cheek with her own, Selene began explaining the things left out of [Skuggi L?raer]'s description.

[[They are kinda like pets in the way I can level them up, but the downside is, at the skill's current level, I can only increase their stats back up to the full ones of their previous owner. So until I improve my proficiency and Tier of the skill, the best they can do is get their previous strength back.]]

[[That's still really good, Selly, I mean, they can be used as throw-away scouts or even meatshields for our retreat when necessary. That is five different bodies on the battlefield that are expendable.]] Brance stated as he shifted the young woman resting in his lap with her back against his chest.

Gabby, who had grown jealous of Selene and Cynrik, had climbed into Brance's lap and squirmed because he hadn't yet given her any loving attention.

[[Question, are you able to share senses with these "Foreign Shadows," or do they simply move per your instructions?]] Cynrik asked after considering the potential of her new future minions.

[[Un, I can share Sight and Sound with them, but if I do that, I can't move and become defenseless.]]

Hearing the confirmation, Cynrik mentally nodded before responding.

[[If that's the case, then yes, they will make excellent fodder for our future operations. As shadows, they should be able to hide relatively well, but until you get one, I can't make any plans around utilizing them in battle. Many things need to be confirmed, such as if they give off a Mana signature or any kind of presence.]]

[[I also want to test if my [Sixth Sense] picks them up because if they can stealthily move unhindered, that will save us a shit ton of time in situations like Egress Dives. We also don't know if they can think or end up as mindless drones after coming under your control.]]
