This would be better fitted if it was a thief class, like ^said.
Still, I love it! Kinda overpowered imo though.

Nice concept, but to be honest... I don't picture this being a very good setup for a bowman hero class...

...change this to a [b]thief[/b] legend class using a kusarigawa (sickle chain) and you have some promising ideas!

Amazing skills, very creative. And a non-ranged Archer for a Hero class so that it wouldn't defeat the purpose of BM/MM anymore.

Add in a bit more archer skills, perhaps? (:

This is better than the "jobs" with random skills combined together.Nice work.

Awesome man, I would totally make one.

Edit: All you guys hating on climbing mastery, its not like nexon ever released a pointless skill right?

Very well done. +1 Like

So pro. I like the 2nd animation for Shackle slice the best. L>you on nexon's animation or character design team. <3 Although I do agree with InfurnoBlast about these skills looking too overpowered for 1st job, unless they're really weak and you have overly epic skills in mind for 2nd-4th. Keep up the good work. ^^

So much climbing mastery hate xD I'm not sure how you guys are perceiving it, but it would be pretty pretty dang fast...I think your underestimating just how convenient it would be to practically eliminate the process of climbing o.o no more positioning the character and taking the time to actually lumber up. Just let the fluffy physics of amazons grace guide you to it and watch as you shoot up like a rocket.
You would be know as a god in ludi PQ stage 5

@sokiss: That would be cool, but developers would have to go REALLY far out of their way to implement which individual map objects your allowed to climb.

You should include a skill in 2nd job where, since it's a Cat-related job, it should be able to climb stuff other than ladders. Such as sides of rocks/trees/walls/etc.

I like this a lot, but it looks like an archer version of an Aran. Maybe it's just me. Anyways, I still like it.

try being able to attack on a ladder?

[quote=GroudonGuru]I understand where you're coming from, and this looks great. I don't think that there are any DEFINITELY female Heroes, and I think that the male DB is canon (since the female DB is just a Syl clone), so this would balance things. However, since all classes have to be able to be either gender, the Amazonian theme would be somewhat limited.[/quote]

No no, the "Amazon" theme isn't a reference to Amazon women...It just shares the same name as the adventurer archer skills. There would be a male and female idol for the Velan just like any other hero. I can definitely see how I mislead you though xD

Like everyone says, 1st job may be a bit too much. You need to make first job toned down, give the people a little treat in 2nd with a mobbing move, then toss 2-3 good ideas in 3rd, and go wild in 4th.

shackle slice should really be 3rd job or sth...6 skills is way too many for 1st job. kinda overpowered for 1st job, espcially amazon grace.

Lol it's a Mithra <3

Even the WHs may be doomed if this is implemented in the game

aran..dualblader and acher had a 3 way and BAM!..velan..

[quote=Hathelian]Looks really OPed; I would hate to be KSed by these.

But that doesn't change the fact that this is COMPLETELY FREAKING AMAZING!

How did you make them? I gotta use whatever program you are![/quote]

I used photoshop elements 6 for any transparent effects, graphics gale free edition to help animate and MS paint for sprites.

lol at climbing mastery.

This looks legit bro

[quote=goldenarceus]I kinda think these skills are a bit too awesome for 1st job. remember 1st job skills are supposed to suck

Other than that good job

Edit: Also does this mean he only needs to use one arrow? cause all those attacks consist of the arrow attached to chains and him getting it back afterward, so does this mean he only needs one strong specially made arrow?[/quote]

Indeed. Even though I was too lazy to actually sprite one (mainly because I wanted to get this out there before the actual archer legend showed up), the Velan use a unique weapon called a chain-bow. The idea of the weapon is pretty self-explanatory...Its a bow with a chained arrow attached to it. The arrow you see in the chained-shot animation would actually look completely different depending on the weapon you were using.

This is amazing :o *calls nexon* If you could, could u make a 2nd, 3rd and if u can 4th job? :o If you could ^_^ You would be saving lives

this is amazing!

[quote=GintokiS]Are you a part of the MapleMation gang :o?[/quote]

Nope...although I have dreampt of making one those fast-paced animations. They look so fun !

... UNIQUE!
I want to see this in Maple now.

I love the animations, they're so cool! >:O +1!

epic animation man

There are three completely different animation for shackle slice (displayed randomly when the skill is activated)...this is just an idea that I came up with to make it seem less like the character is repeating the same thing over-and-over-and-over again:

adfa@&Ê#^* wow! your animation is AWESOME! it doesnt look like custom made at all! i would definitely make a legendary archer if they had these skills and cat ears!
and i really like your idea for different animation for one skill

It looks so legit
Really fits the Maple style, but there aren't many bow+arrow attacks though :O

I actually really like it

I never say this for custom classes, but impressive skills for the class. They look quite interesting, and original animations. That's rare, a +1 on your part. The only thing I must say is that I would love to see more of it attributes relating to the archer as well, in terms of the archer's speed and their weapon.

[quote=carvo101010]Why does the last chain animation remind me of Aran so much?[/quote]

I'm looking at it now and I'm seeing that its VERY similar to Aran's over-swing animation, where he spins around twice then goes into one final blow from above with a glowing pole-arm.

I was actually messing around and editing that very animation a while back and I got to know the frames pretty well...I think that what your seeing here is me using a motion from my head that I believed to be original, but was actually subconsciously rehashing something that I'd already seen before. The human mind is a funny thing

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys ...I'll have to spend more time on the animations for my next jobs o.o

This is both very realistic and amazign! I actually thought it was a real thing after looking at the skills but nope it's fake D:

how dost thou improve thine height?

The first and third Shackle Slice, look like intrepid slash and the aran's attack.

Third shackle slice reminds me of arans for the first motion. Pretty good IMO.

the chain animation is very nice. wish this was a class and murder them dbs and mechs

@firetamer0n3: got that feeling it's going to be needed for 2nd,3rd and 4th job skills and advancements

Climbing mastery is pretty useless?

animations are cool.

This is amazing.
Nexon needs to see this...
Submit a ticket. [b]Now.[/b]

All of this seemed so real. Amazing job. o_o

Look better than a lot of actual animations +1 Awesome job man.

So legit.

Awesome work, man. I always liked the chain like skills, and this looks promising. Wish that nexon see your work by accident and contact you! +1

i only liked the animations C:
