Amalgamation Savage & Maniac Specializations

"We have an odd bunch here commander. Albeit they have extreme tendencies that make even those that play dirty take a step back, it's undeniable their skills, power, and versatility. We just need to keep an eye out on them once the war ends..."






This is a somewhat rare Primary specialization, couldn't find much to fit to it to make it less rare. It's on the higher end of Melee class, it can use Sword as a primary, and allows Combat Knife as a secondary. They have good action economy and, all in all, will keep you questioning if that last stab was really necessary, or if you should have came back without greeding too much.



It's a Tertiary Spec focused in a mix between survival, single-target focus, and somewhat hidden high crit chance that scales with its rank. It provides extra support not only for Savage, but for nearly all other Melee primaries, such as Ravager, Stormcharger, and even Ninja. Oh, also vindicator. It comes with This one is Mine as a Sergeant perk, and can roll things like Parkour so you can really feel them persecuting your enemies till the ends of earth.

Savage is currently on the strong side of specs. On my attempt to make a self-suficient spec, I have swong a bit too far in that direction. Savage still has strong weakness, such as mutons, explosives, melee and immunity, but I've mitigated the one sthat made me more frustrated, such as acid bleed, aoe poison after every hit, and many enemies that just shut down melee-only as a possible playstyle unless you swing really powerfully, such as with Fortis Magi which can currently solo entire missions in 1 or 2 turns. It was so blinding powerful that I thought ninja was weak, ecen though ninja has other ways to work around its weakness with Kunais and Assassinate.

Savage has a more crute and brute as base ideology, rushdown and direct, but with intricate sub playsyles that make you think about every single action: "Should I stab here? run with 2? melee the guy on the other side and end my turn there?" It's... I liked it!

Maniac is more bound to persecution, hyper focus(this one is mine) and tireless assault(Rush of battle), and the panic as someone with a raw smile breaking every ally you have(Fearsome). Giving the enemies the sensation of no escape (parkour). And the ignoring or pain, if feeling at all(Warding barrier). I am happy how it turned out! Honestly, more than Savage itself even. It's a suport skill for melee users, I feel it's balanced.



Besides base game amalgamation and it's requirements, Only Bitterfrost Protocol, for Savage's ice vest, and the lovely SurplussClassIcons for Savage and Maniac's Icons.



Being my second kind of mods, there is still may have some issues around that I haven't worked around. I did around 60% of a long Covert Infiltration campaing, and 40% of another. Both of which I did extended testing on many different skill sets, made me abandon Endless Vengeance and change to macrophages + ice vest.

Thanks for XpanD for getting me into Spec creation and getting started on my first mod, and, again, for all modders out there for working on this game.
Have a good one!
