Tiger Themed Hero

[Hades17]

Hey guys, I could need some feedback / additional ideas on this one. I was thinking long time about a fitting fourth ability but nothing seems to be really fitting, so maybe you can think of something appropriate. As Tigers usually don't spit fire and throw giant impales at enemies, this one is a bit tricky to me.

Tiger is a meele-damage-dealing mobileish class.

Usually I have 3 active spells and 1 passive on every hero, so I don't need another passive.
It's a hero I'm using in a Hack'n'Slay styled RPG map.

What I have so far:
Name: Aspros,
Model: White Tiger
Icon: Priestess of the Moon

Abilities:
Sandy Surprise: Deals AGI x2 + manipulates enemy perception (slow or miss)
Pounce: Leaps foreward and deals damage, low cost, low cd
Savage Nature (Passive): Works like Return-Aura, just some other cosmetics / effects.

What I need:
-A forth ability which fits into the kit with the others, icons are all in brown-reddish tone.
-Maybe an additional effect on Savage Nature.

I'm glad about any feedback / further suggestions!
Best regards,
Hades

Thanks for the nice ideas, +rep for both. I'm from Germany but got Greek ancestors, so I'm able to speak Greek

I actually like this concept, but I'm struggling to find a fitting Icon, I dislike it when they don't really match

I've thought about this one: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...r-144006/?prev=search=rage&r=20&d=list&page=3
But that'd represent a roar rather than something like the concept... There are only very few icons with tigers out there. I'm thinking about posting a request.

Invisible and Deadly: The tiger dissolves into the background, essentially becoming invisible. His movement speed is sharply reduced, but if he uses an ability while still invisible, its effects are doubled to account for the surprise.

Triumphant Roar: Letting out a mighty roar, enemies flee in terror, their will to fight dissolved. Causes knockback, turning units away from tiger, reduces their damage.

This is pretty fitting, thank you a lot, kind Sir.

-Maybe an additional effect on Savage Nature.

Has a chance to stagger enemies when attacking. While staggered, enemies are stunned and unable to perform actions. When a staggered enemy takes any damage there is a high chance that he will get staggered again. The longer the enemy remains in a staggered state the harder it becomes to stagger them again (so permanent staggering is not possible). Units without this passive maintain stagger less effectively (worse rolls for reapplying stagger). Once an enemy breaks out of a stagger chain they cannot be staggered again for a period of time. Mechanical enemies do not allow stagger to be re-applied. Stagger is less effective on powerful enemies.

Staggers have a stagger period which is the full duration of the stun provided. Chain staggering (where stagger gets re-applied) can only occur at the end of the period. A probability for chain staggering is computed as a function of the damage the unit received during that period (with all damage from units with the passive multiplied by a large bonus) and the number of staggers the enemy has had since the start of the chain. If the roll misses then the unit will revert to normal and become immune to staggering for a while. If the roll hits the unit has stagger reapplied and the process repeats. If the initial stagger roll of the passive hits on a unit that is already staggered then it will always succeeds the next chain roll and that stagger will not be counted as part of the chain. Every stagger causes the enemy to play a brief period of its death animation (only non-mechanical) to boost visual satisfaction of the skill.

A possible formula for the stagger chain probability.
HP = maximum health of enemy
DAMAGE = damage taken during stagger period
CHAIN = number of times chained (not counting stagger rolls from the passive)
P = Probability of stagger chaining

P = ( 0.75 - ( 0.25 * CHAIN ) ) + ( 10 * ( DAMAGE / HP ) )
When P > 1 then chaining will always succeed
When P < 0 then chaining will never succeed

Example statistics.
5% chance to stagger per hit with a stagger period of 0.5 seconds and unit cooldown of 7 seconds. Damage dealt contributes twice as much to chaining than that done by allies. Tough enemies have a unit cooldown of 30 seconds and the chaining probability is halved (P / 2).

When it does trigger it literally allows you to maul a single unit to death. Depending on balance it may be required to boost the occurrence chance to 10-15% such as for the case of enemies taking very few hits to kill so the effect is meaningful. It is still viable against tough bosses as the reduced chain length and long unit cooldown keeps the stunning it produces very controlled.

Purr - Tiger takes a nap and is too adorable to attack for 15 seconds.

Hairball - Tiger spits a projectile hairball at a target enemy, grossing them out for 3 seconds.

Scratch - Tiger breaks the skin of the target. Stuns them for 1 second.

Climb Tree - Tiger climbs a tree, catching a bird to eat and restore 3 health.

Arch Back - Tiger looks slightly intimidating for 4 seconds.

If you need any more, let me know.
