Ideas for a GK Librarian as Hero

Postby Aertes » Wed 28 May, 2014 2:52 pm

As I've been saying in the Eversor feedback thread ( viewtopic.php?f=3&t=915 ) I support the idea of keeping such Assassin as a brother choice to the Vindicare in T2 and upgrade the Librarian to Hero. In case they are worth something, I'd like to share my ideas on how a GK Librarian hero could be:

Stats:
A hero librarian would be pretty well as it is now, but changing his armor type to "commander". Perhaps he could have a slight reduction in his health points, leaving him in 800 for example.

Starting gear:
His sword should start in a more humble spot, about 40dph, 25dps power melee, enhancable later through weapon upgrades. The Brother Captain should be a more powerful melee fighter, at least at start.

Starting abilities:
Smite ais still very good choices for him to start with. Purge could be prostrated to be part of a gear upgrade.

Weapon Options:
T1- Nemesis Force Sword: 70 dph, 45 dps power melee. More powerful than the Brother-Captain's, but doesn't bring any ability enhancement.
T2- Nemesis Warding Staff: this would be removed from the Brother-Captain's options to be included in the Librarian's. Just as it's being proyected in the 2.3 patch. Background wise, its more accurate that the Librarian handles the Staff and the Brother-Captain already has the Immortal armor option.

Armor Options:
T1- Armor fo the Librarium: Increases energy in 150 and energy regeneration in 0.5.
T2- Vortex of Doom: this would also be removed from the Brother-Captain's options and given to the Librarian. just as it is (maybe a slight increase of his damage output).
T3- Reinforced Aegis: increases health in 250, health regeneration in 0.20 and gives the Sanctuary ability, that generates an orb around the Librarian that reduces incomming ranged damage in 25% to units inside, but the Librarian must channel the power for the duration and can't make other actions.

Gear Options:
T1- Purified Swords: This one would be removed from the Brother Captain and given to the Librarian just as it is (perhaps with an increase of the knockback chances of 5% for a total of 20%).
T2- Liber Daemonica: it gives the Librarian the Emperor's Hammer Hand ability, that would work just like his current Might of Titan (just name change, since Might of titan just dissapeared from Warhammer 40k).
T3- Keys of the Banisher: it gives the Purge ability as it is now.

Global Abilities:
I'd need further help to make suggestions here, I can't think of wich ones could be changed and what for.

This way, I think, the overloaded Brother Captain would keep just 3 options for each slot in the line of most of other heroes, and a Gk Librarian hero could be an interesting choice as a support commander, while the brother-captain remains as the hard puncher.

As long as it isn't nailed to the ground, you sure are willing to toy with everything, don't you?

It is not "melee energy" it is "power melee". Just thought to point it out.

Well I would love to see the GK Librarian as a hero choice but I fear it isn't that simple... :/

Sorry, not happening. Designed him as a unit to be a melee anti counter in the next build. Alot of the army composition is dependant on his existing role.

I would rather not have to rework the whole army again.

I tried to keep him in the same role he has now just as commander in the palce of the Brother-Captain, but if not factible, not factible.
