Its element could be a new grey element called steel, or for you purists it could be boring physical. I will use both interchangable, most likely. You can vote on which is better.
The weaponry used in this class is any 1- handed weapon. (uses primary and secondary.) I was also thinking that you could use all weapons for either spot, but they would have better stats when used as primary. tell me if this is a cool or stupid idea.
Some of this class' moves are used in other posts (rush on volcanological, tornado strike on cycological comments) but were intended for this class.
Lastly, I wanted to describe 2 builds i am basing this unit on. Ninja: uses piercing, speed, and buffs to deal high damage and crits. Also has enough speed to dodge a fair share of attacks. Berserk: Focused on strength, survivability, and recovery.

Well, It's late and I'm done for now. Please contribute your suggestions, opinions, and ideas!
Air armor is overpowered, wrong element, and replicating a skill I already have (I think...)
Cripple is taken from another class, I think bio, and it had too big a skill leap. Plus no CD or cost and level 1? C'mon. You probably know how picky I am by now...
Attack the enemy for 100/150/200% of your speed and 25/50/75% of your strength and apply the 'Cripple' which decreases the enemy's speed by 20/25/30%.
Air Armor to:
Pump Up
Level 15 Ability CD: 20 Costs 100 focus.
Pump up you or your teammates and apply then 'Buff' effect which decreases damage taken and speed by 10/20/30%, and it also increases defenses and piercing by 10/15/20% all for 8 turns.
Increase your speed by 150% for 7 turns. If you get stunned while this effect is active, after stunning is resolved increase your speed by another 150% for the rest of the time this effect is active.
cool, can be part of master combo (like DoT implosion, withdrawal, etc. But you should make it cost 15 focus and last 6 turns. More moves to use in the combo:
Jumpstart CD:4, Use:1 Stuns you for 1 turn and recovers 10/20/30 focus on that turn, and increases your speed by 50/75/100% after for 3 turns.
Mass Driver CD:5, Use:1, Cost:100 focus Accelerate into your target to deal damage equal to 400/440/480/520% of your speed.
Transfer CD:10, Use:1, Cost:15 focus Increases the healing and damage recieved by the target by 40/60/80/100% for 5 turns
Prime Preparation CD:7, Use:1 Makes your next attack 100% accurate and deal 20/30/40/50% extra damage, but you receive an extra 60/50/40/30% damage.
So far its Steadfast-Transfer-Jumpstart-Prime Preparation-Mass Driver, I haven't even looked at previous pages. So far, 500 speed at level 30 will yield... 39000 damage and has 100% accuracy! Fair though, as it takes longer to set up, doesn't have crystalize to immobilize your enemy, has debuff aspects (higher healing on enemy, take extra damage, stunned for 1 turn), and doesn't heal like withdrawal. I like it!
berserk warriors and ninjas are based on using different weapons... just putting that in. (arms means weapons if you didn't know... hence armory, armed and dangerous, etc.)
