Has anybody purchased or played the Arcane Duelist?

1. The main combat move modifies hack&slash to introduce a magical effect to your melee attacks. you start with 4 techniques, and can gain more through advanced moves.

   It also has a starting move for challenging others to a duel, and making their lives difficult if they refuse you.

   Most of the advanced moves revolve around making the class’ arcane bladework combat more effective. The non-combat stuff makes the challenge to a duel move more effective, knowing your enemy, being famous, and taking an apprentice.

2. I read a beta version that had a lot of problems in the magic effects. Not sure how it is now. 

3. You can check it out at http://www.dungeonworldsrd.com/classes/arcane-duelist and if you like it, be sure to support the creator by picking it up at RPGNow.

4. I love the magic effects. They are very thematic.

5. They are but there might be some problems. Like: 

   Mirage

   You create illusions of yourself that strike additional enemies near your target. Illusions deal your damage but do not apply any techniques.

   How is that not directly better then flowing? 

   When does torrential really work? When does it stop? Basically you know have this enemy pinned forever if no one interferes. 

6. It doesn’t make sense to me that illusions can deal damage. Are they really illusions if they are able to damage the physical world?
