One of these classes should counter necro: deal AoE damage that scales with the number of enemies (more necro pets = more damage to all enemies)

Some lore:

Clockborg, like the bitomancer, does not use MP. Clockborgs are machines that created themselves, so they are just evolved species from mechanical creation. Watches that absorbed nearby parts, telescopes in wizard towers that incorporated unique artifacts into their design. They later become automatons, then overtime developed their own intelligence. They are naturally curious and often become explorers and adventurers. They are willing to teach players their skills, in exchange for knowledge of what life is like as a human (or not a bear, glowcloud, etc.)

Much like the Bitomancer, the Beatomancer is from the Era: Future, a modern day adventurer who managed to make it to Idliathlia. They use their advanced technological and musical skills while living in a world of magic and monsters.

The Fencer used to be a Norkian knight who prefers speed and a quick blade over heavy armor. Now he's wealthy from adventuring and lives a playboy lifestyle, binging on adventures when he becomes bored.

The Alchemist rather hates explosions, actually. He keeps detailed notes on all of his potion creations in order to prevent singed eyebrows (or exploding eyes). Some may find him neurotic and paranoid, but he prefers the term "prepared."

The trickster is really an advanced Jester, so they share many similarities. Some of his pranks go too far though, but he has a love for elaborate ruses. Unfortunately he keeps losing his cards all over the place.

Druid: Still underway

The alchemist gets a bonus while being Solo because then he can experiment more freely.

Since Clockborgs are self-constructing, they should naturally be good at deconstructing, which gives them a small boost to salvage rates.

Clockborg ideas:

Clockborg has a base salvage: 4 (is this too high/low?) Clockborgs are unaffected by poison, venom, vampire and any normal healing spells due to their mechanical nature. Clockborgs start with 3 turrets that do not respawn. Clockborgs have a special resource: energy or power? something electricity-related. Clockborgs take increased damage from digital attacks.

• Healing Turret: Heals all organic teammates a small amount every turn (Maybe based off of its max health, which would be based off of the Clockborg's max health)
• Sentry Turret: Provides damageReductionPercent for the entire party as long as it is alive.
• Gun Turret (name?): Attacks a random enemy target with moderate damage based off of Clockborg str OR attacks all enemy targets for low damage based off of Clockborg int every turn. (50/50 weights)

All turrets have higher tiers unlocked through different collectibles.

Clockborg skills:

• Turn Back The Clock: Heals either the a clockborg or a turret in the party, with a higher weight going to the targets with lower health.
• Overclock/Overcharge: Double the effect of turrets for 2 turns (does this need a cooldown? how would cooldowns be implemented?)
• Attack / Strike (based off str)
• Round The Clock: Restore special resource to the clockborg
• Tesla Beam - high single target INT based attack. Increased damage against clockborgs and turrets.
• Chime Rod Baton (Help with names, please) - high single target STR based attack.
• Tick Tock - Clockborg takes no action for 1 turn. Turrets continue doing their thing. (Not sure if this is needed for class balance)

Sedgwick seems to have a far more creative mind than myself, so I'm hoping he can help with these..

Yes. Comments:

• I'd say salvage(2) instead of 4. I think most people would gravitate towards this class trainer no matter what because salvage is powerful, so other classes would need something to compensate.
• Charge could be their special unit.
• Explosive Turret
• Cooldowns probably do not need to be implemented, just weighting the skills appropriately should be sufficient. If you needed to implement a cooldown, you could simply add a buff that does nothing, then check for the effect.
• Chime Rod Baton is fine lol

Anything I didn't specifically comment on, I like.

3 collectibles for Clockborg Turrets [WIP]:

• Tiny Glass Camel, explosive turret. Already in game, just needs updated to pro rarity. Located in Cabran.
