Current Version

Introduction
The Guqin is a trained musical performer wielding a hybrid weapon that is part crossbow and part guqin, an ancient musical instrument of which the class is named after. Due to the prototype nature of her weapon, it deteriorates quickly with each use.
In combat the Guqin functions as a glass cannon, wrecking havoc onto the enemy backline while healing and bestowing buffs on her allies. She is prone to getting 'one-shotted', heavily relying on her party to guard her.

CRIT 2% 3% 4% 5% 6%
HP 15 18 21 24 27

SPD -2 -2 -1 -1 0
CoM feature - On Crit: +5% Ranged DMG buff that lasts 1 Battle, to counteract the -5% Ranged DMG debuff each time she fires her weapon.
(As the Guqin class' animations are based on the Antiquarian, she is also available as an alternative Antiquarian skin if you don't want the class.)
Combat Skills:
1. Longbow - The Guqin's basic long-ranged attack. Bonus armor penetration if Guarded. Each shot deteriorates her weapon, lasting until the end of combat. Debuff cannot be removed.
2. Blitz - A preparation skill that doesn't end her turn. She will move back 1 position, gets an ACC buff, a bonus to Leechbolt Healing and ignores stealthed enemies for 1 round. Each use somehow deteriorates her weapon that also lasts until the end of combat. Debuff cannot be removed.
3. Countersong - Forces an ally to guard her, reducing the ally's stress for a small amount while applying a "Can't be Marked" buff on that ally for 3 rounds. The guard lasts until the end of combat.
4. Lullaby - Heals a party member or herself. Bonus healing if she is guarded.
5. Harpoon - Melee attack with a chance of Knockback.
6. Leechbolt - A life-siphoning shot that heals the Guqin, with a small chance to heal allies. Each shot deteriorates her weapon, lasting until the end of combat. Debuff cannot be removed.
7. Dissonance - Stuns one enemy and clears Stun from her party.
Camping Skills:
Has the 3 default camping skills plus the following 4 skills
Trinkets:
(Optional) Color of Madness Trinkets - requires the CoM DLC:
Installing the mod - Guqin Class:

Introduction
The Guqin is a trained musical performer wielding a hybrid weapon that is part crossbow and part guqin, an ancient musical instrument of which the class is named after. Due to the prototype nature of her weapon, it deteriorates quickly with each use.
In combat the Guqin functions as a glass cannon, wrecking havoc onto the enemy backline while healing and bestowing buffs on her allies. She is prone to getting 'one-shotted', heavily relying on her party to guard her.
Pros:
- High damage, especially against the enemy backline.
- Can play the support role.
Cons:
- Very low HP and SPD.
- Defensively weak. Lacks skills/trinkets that adds Dodge, PROT, HP, or Aegis.
- Heavily reliant on being guarded.
