The scurvy-infested dogs of any pirate crew. Don't let the powderkeg strapped to his back fool you - this guy's quick!


Official Skirmisher avatar



Overview

Because of their low health and armor, these guys aren't famous for playing fair. The Skirmisher relies on speed, the ability to run away from any fight easily is freedom that only the skirmisher has, and that means that these guys can pick their target when they are at their weakest, or utilize the element of surprise and attack from behind.

When a situation gets too hot for the cutlass to handle, you can always take some distance and use your flintlock pistol. It requires skill to play this class if you want to own your opponents using only the cutlass. Skilled players often beat most other classes by using the skirmisher's speed as their advantage. For new players there are other ways too, like the keg, an explosive barrel full of black powder that'll surely send your enemies flying and makes them easy for skirmisher to finish.

Health points: 100

Damage required for special: 165

Weaponry

The Cutlass

Cutlass

Average pirate cutlass, a must-have weapon for any self respectable skirmisher. Swings and charges fast but is not very powerful. Many quick slashes at your enemies back is good way to start a fight. This is your main weapon of use, it can be a powerful weapon when you get the hang out of the speed of this weapon. You'll slice through any unsuspecting enemy in no time! Be careful though, this weapon isn't very large (a one-handed weapon), and can be parried by almost any weapon. A watchful opponent will give you a hard time if he knows how to counter attack you.

When your special bar is filled, press special button to do a powerful forward lunge. This lunge will make you fly through the air, and is faster then your normal walking speed. Because of this you can use your special to escape really nasty situations where you might not be able to get out by simple running. Like when someone manages to block your escape route.You can't change direction while lunging. The lunge will be less effective when your opponent is not on the same height as you, like on stairs. If you are higher positioned then your target you'll likely hit him less, or maybe miss him. If your enemy is on higher ground you can find yourself bumping to the ground and missing some important hits, or not even reaching him.

Dmg Charged/N:56/42

Forward/Side Interval: 15

String:10

Special dmg:25x5

The Flintlock Pistol

Flintlock Pistols

The skirmisher uses a black powder flintlock pistol that holds six shots, though it has a slow reload time. Pistol shot may not be very accurate but it is a quick, effect way to deal moderate damage from short-medium range. When spawning the Skirmisher carries no back up ammo, so be sure to grab some! The pistol does a moderate amount of damage, and is a good weapon to 'soften up' your enemy or for finishing purposes. The accuracy of the weapon decreases a lot while moving, so be sure to stand still when firing otherwise you have a much higher chance of missing a shot you need to hit.

Dmg: 40 - 32 range varying

The Powderkeg

Powderkeg

The infamous keg, full of gunpowder that explodes when the ignited wick reaches the barrel. When the powderkeg is equipped, the skirmisher takes it from his back and holds it in both hands, and his movement speed is greatly reduced. Pressing the attack button once ignites the wick, and pressing it a second time tosses the keg. Deals massive damage to enemies but can be mostly blocked using a shield. Teammates close to the blast radius are stunned. The respawn time for the keg is 75 seconds

Dmg: 175

Extra info: Blast radius is approximately 600 units, Damage decreases with range (1/6 per 100 units),
