Oh cool... just saw this - thanks for patching one of my favorite classes!

@irishmafia2020 - patch implemented, thanks for posting.

Here is the fix to this class not wearing armor. Cut and paste the following lines to the bottom of the directed page - remember to follow the folder/file map, as the mods are not installed with the main xcom files.

Add these two lines to: steam/steamapps/workshop/content/268500/631231104/Config/XComClassData

+AllowedArmors=soldier
+bAllowAWCAbilities=1

If you have other custom classes installed and cannot where armor on them, you can manually look through your other mods installed in the "268500" folder and add those lines for them as well - i did this for several other classes and it only took me 10 minutes or so...

New suggestions: if possible, later on, we could study the possibility of creating a class called:
a) "Defiler" (psi force focused)
b) "Alien Slaughter" (ninja very focused in high damage with swords against aliens but not so much against the hybried human Advent Forces)
c) "Herald" (a class not focused in one path, this class embraces perks and skills from all classes)
d) "DarkRunner" (class highly focused in huge moviment points and mobility)
e) "Skullnight" (class focused in sniper / shadow operative skills / long range damage)

The Assault class also gets Shadowstep, and only a rank later than this one.
As for Lightning Reflexes vs Shadowstep, yes they are very similar but tactically they play very differently. Lightning Reflexes will protect the entire squad by making the enemy waste their overwatch, whereas Shadowstep offers you, but only you, complete protection.

Haven't tested it yet, but both Shadow Step and Lightning Reflexes (assuming an unmoddified XCOM EU version) are both very powerful. In my opinion, to be a more balanced class, they should maybe change line with another set of traits, such as the Deep Cover/ Untouchable line.

They are also very similar abilities. They both are able to ignore Overwatch. Shadowstep just avoiding it, while LR cancels out the first one for the rest of the squad. While not a really bad thing, it makes that choice seem a bit insignificant with little overall effect.

Still Subbing cause this class sounds awesome.
