Bouncer — the Retaliation Tank

The Bouncer is Legendary's custom tank job: a polearm-wielding, heavy-armor wall built around active retaliation — it generates enormous enmity, reflects damage back at attackers, and leeches HP to sustain itself.

At a glance

• Where: the Bouncer occupies the Geomancer job slot — set your job to GEO and you are the Bouncer. (The client still shows "Geomancer" until a cosmetic name/icon update; the gameplay is fully the Bouncer.)
• Weapon: Polearm (two-handed — no shield, by design)
• Role: the highest-HP tank on the server; mitigation through HP / VIT / DEF + damage reflection, not blocking
• No spells — a pure martial tank

Identity

The Bouncer trades the Geomancer's magic entirely for raw durability and a punish-the-attacker playstyle. It carries the highest HP of any job on the server (its flat-HP traits stack past Monk's), strong DEF/MDEF, innate physical-damage reduction, counter, and progressive enmity bonuses.

Abilities

• Step Outside — a single-target taunt (Provoke-grade enmity), ~30s recast.
• Retaliate — a reflect/leech stance: while active, incoming damage is reflected back at the attacker and leeched as HP. ~180s duration on a ~30s recast, so it has near-permanent uptime.
• Last Call (2-hour) — a short window where the Bouncer cannot die and reflects/leeches at maximum: the ultimate "hold the line" button.

Traits

Defensive and enmity-focused, scaling as you level: Max HP Boost (I & II), Defense Bonus, Magic Def. Bonus, Counter, Enmity Boost, Physical Damage Taken down, Crit. Def. Bonus, Resist Sleep, and Auto Regen.

Balance is ongoing

The Bouncer is a brand-new custom job. All numbers are starting points and may be tuned.
