Parfumier
Parfumier is odd. Rather than rely on heavy armor for defense, it relies on the effects of it's captivating scents for defense, while utilizing the resource-free healing actions of the Apothecary class it builds from. Parfumier uses light armors in the early game and "Casting" gear in the late game. Its main stat is INT.
The core of tanking as a Parfumier is healing yourself with potions from Apothecary. Each of the four perfume effects confers several benefits and one detriment. The Parfumier chooses which to use given the battle at hand, as all four can be stacked at once if desired. Cherche & Septieme when used together vastly increase the Parfumier's survival. Cherche grants a huge boost to Defense, Magic Defense, and enmity gains. Septieme enhances healing effects received and further mitigates damage received. Sortilege & Chantage are used for offense. Sortilege increases the damage the Parfumier deals and takes while extended the duration of the Apothecary's damage over time Aqua Regia abilities. Chantage boosts auto-attack speed and critical rate, while adding lightning damage to auto-attacks when attacking enemies that have been hit with Aqua Regia. Parfumier adds just 1 weaponskill combo to the Apothecary class, which can greatly enfeeble a target that has been hit with Oil. It also gets 2 ways to assist the party. Ancient Aroma buffs nearby party members' attack speed and damage output, and Musk Mask is like an area of effect version of Quelling Strikes that the Parfumier can use on party members. Maiden's Prayer is a new hybrid of Holmgang and Hallowed Ground, which completely constricts an enemy while completely disabling the user for a brief time. This should function much like the Seize action of Iron Claws and Deathclaws.
