Kit reworks

Beast

• Slashing Frenzy (Equip): a fast two-armed flurry on whoever is in front of you, opening wounds.
• Running Jumpkick: run up and hit with both feet, launching the target.
• Weighted Flip: flips into a weighted slam strike.
• Clawed Pounce: pounce through a crowd, hitting each enemy along the path once, slowing them and sometimes causing bleed.
• Cultured Thinker: armour-ignoring psychic damage while you recite a literary quote. You're heavily slowed while reciting.
• Devious Dilution: an acid vial that poisons, blinds, slows, burns through absorption, and leaves a pool behind.
• Run Wild: a stun-immune charge that launches everyone it hits, heals you per hit, and grants overshield. Your other abilities are locked while it runs, and it falls off ledges.
• Clawed Sweep Kick (Utility): knocks Prone and applies Bleed.
• Stars and Garters (Ultimate): a volley of vials that Douses targets for 6s.
• Stats: Attack 75-98 » 60-68, Speed 45-55 » 44-60, Utility 40-45 » 78-89, Defense 80-99 » 40-50. Regen and Combat removed.

Wolverine

• Latch » X Slash: lunge and carve an X through a small area. Almost everything hit bleeds.
• Fillet » Feral Leap: a running leap that drags anyone you catch down and pins them, slowed and grounded.

• Toggle Claws » Retract Claws: claws out gives more melee damage, more reach and a bleed chance. Most of the kit needs them out; Feral Leap doesn't.
• Berserker » Berserker Rage: launch the target, slam them down, then rage: you hit harder, take less, heal, and bleed twice as often.
• Scent Tracker (new, Utility): follow one target's scent trail, see them through walls, and get a bleed bonus. The target briefly takes more damage when marked.
• Regenerative Healing Factor (new, Passive): triggers near death to heal and clear poison, burning and slow. You take 25% less damage while it's active. Long cooldown, so once per fight.
