Description
Finally got the time to put in the finishing touches to the OC class: Spellblade, with Ssara as the class rep.
The Spellblade is one of two Arcanist specs, the other being Elementalist.

Class Lore: Spellblades hail from the Gehennas region, which large concentrations of them living in within the capital city of Waterwall. Being practically on the doorstep of the Burning Rift, magic users in the region have learnt to keep their magic experimentation to a minimum, and many have cast aside the delicate art of casting spells at range, and instead leaned into the thrill of close combat while weaving magic into dangerous weapons to harm foes and reflect magical damage.

While many traditional spellcasters scoff at their seemingly unrefined spellcasting techniques, in truth Spellblades are a spellcaster's worst nightmare, sensing and teleporting to a spellcaster's side, instantly removing ranged advantages. Because of their potent anti magic skills, many are employed in regions such as Asteria (as countermeasure troops) and Stoikyngorod (as anti magic enforcers).

Class playstyle: Spellblades are a simple class to play, but require good knowledge of their foes and a quick reaction to get the most out of the class. Their rotations are short, involving the usage and regaining of mana for a short chain of attacks. However, they weave powerful defensives in between, many with a counterattack component to it. Upon being struck, these defensives nullify incoming damage and deal high damage or apply crippling effects to foes, especially spellcasters. In addition, magical melee attacks can be charged up, turning simple weapons into massive versions of themselves, deaing AoE damage.
