Jin's 3rd Job: Asura

Characteristics:
The ancient Asura were deities invoked by warriors while they meditated to soothe the violence within. These same gods were also called upon to push the ancient warriors' violent attacks to new levels of power. Though neither divine nor immortal, he who was called the "Asura" was an accomplished fighter, a lion protecting the gods. Having willingly chosen the trial of defending the cruel, yet righteous gods while preserving peace and virtue in all the land neither gods nor humans could find fault with him.

The last Asura sensed the gathering malignant forces and summoned the most distinguished warriors to bestow upon them his divine teachings to aid them in the coming maelstrom. His efforts were in vain, however, for the warriors had neither the strength of body nor the strength of mind to absorb his teachings. Those who did not die went mad.

Having been defeated by the Ascendant God, Asura prepared to meet his end. He announced his final holy edict and commanded that once a great warrior was found he should inherit the title of "Asura." Jin, having heeded the late Asura's call, took on the rigorous test of improving his mind and his fighting skills. Upon receiving the Asura's weapon, the Chamma, and the divine teachings, Jin became the Asura: the Divine Warrior.

With its light weight and long reach the Chamma is a highly efficient weapon that allows for speedy combos and thrusts, allowing one to attack enemies from a safe distance. Currently, Jin compensates for his close range fighting, a rather weak point, with his quick moves and dodges. However, Asura not only possesses speed and long range fighting abilities, he also has a variety of attacks and evasive moves all stemming from his combo attacks.

The combination of the Burning Skill and the Chamma gives Asura a special quality that allows for enhanced destructive power combined with restraint. The Chamma can be unequipped and foes small and large can be fought with fists. However, fighting with ones bare hands is less powerful than fighting with the Chamma, therefore fighting an enemy with high defense or high attack with the Chamma is much more effective.

Quest (GP):
1) 50 Medals of Victory
2) 3 Gardosen's Swords
3) 10 Crystallized Elemental Spirits
4) 3 Basilisk Seals

Quest (Cash):
1) 1 Medal of Victory
2) 1 Gardosen Sword

Weapon: The Asura uses a weapon known as a "Chamma", which resembles a sort of fighting staff.

Skills:

Martial Arts:

1st Bar:
Asura Strike: The Asura sweeps his staff upward twice. Useful for properties such as air-grabs.

2nd Bar:
Asura Slicer: The Asura slams down his staff twice, and then slams down one final time. Basically mimics Titan Axe Lv 3, except the last slam is smaller.

3rd Bar:
Asura Yang: The Asura slashes into a Windmill Flurry, and then leaps up and down causing a huge explosion. It is noted that a symbol of a Chinese Dragon appears during the explosion.

Burning Mode:

1st Bar:
Chi Asura Strike: Same thing as the previous but there are 2 hits added in the middle.

2nd Bar:
Chi Asura Slicer: The first hit is modified to do a slam and a sweep.

3rd Bar:
Chi Asura Yang: Unlike the non-chi form, when rising, it rises diagonally than vertically.

Fighter:

1st Bar:
Haa-Sing Rising Sun: Spins around forward and then rises. Not to be confused with Dragon Uppercut. Plus, there is actually no Chi model of it (although the Symbols do appear)

Other Attacks: Asura is just Fighter 3.0 and Shisa 2.0, mixed with some Savior and Druid's Skill Tree. He still strikes 5 times. His Aerial Combo mimics Druid's Air Combo, though much faster and more hits. His Slam replaces his Step, and works similar to Savior's Slam. Scorpion Sting shoots a small wave from the staff, and has a modification change to his Crescent Moon Kick (on 1/6/10 patch, they changed it to "Spinning Crane Kick"). Thrashing Dragon strikes down and then sweeps, lifting the target. Still contains Storm Fist (as usual). He can dodge and roll like Shisa. A new arscenary for him contains for throwing his Chamma away, and then follow up with a punch. If the Thrown Chamma hits, it paralyzes. Without the Chama, the Asura can use all his previous Fighter Abilities (except for 2nd and 3rd bars), along with a modified 1st bar. After 7 seconds, he can re-equip his Chamma.

The following moves are not listed:
-Asura Slam
-Rolling Dodge
-Spinning Crane Kick

Other Data: Asura is your basic "Fighter 3.0" or "Shisa 2.0" mixed with Savior and Druid's Skill Tree.
