====== Freerunner Subclass ======

{{ rpd:images:rogue_freerunner_hero.png|Freerunner }}

The **Freerunner** is a hero subclass for the [[en:rpd:rogue_class|Rogue]] class in Remixed Dungeon.

==== Description ====
The _Freerunner_ can move almost twice faster than most monsters. When running, the Freerunner is much harder to hit. For that, the Freerunner must be unencumbered and not starving.

==== Unlocking ====
The Freerunner subclass can be unlocked by using a [[en:rpd:tome_of_mastery_item|Tome of Mastery]] after defeating the second boss (Tengu). This item can also be used with a [[en:rpd:tengu_liver_item|Tengu Liver]] if using a class that normally can't use Tomes of Mastery.

==== Special Mechanics ====
The Freerunner has the following special mechanics implemented in the game code:
  * **Speed Advantage:** Gets 1.6x movement speed when not starving (as implemented in Hero.java)
  * **Evasion Bonus:** Gets 2x evasion when not starving and in motion (defensive skill is doubled during movement)
  * **Requirements:** Must not be starving to maintain the special mechanics
  * **Movement Bonuses:** Speed and evasion bonuses apply when character is moving and not starving

==== Special Armor ====
Using an [[en:rpd:armor_kit_item|Armor Kit]] on any armor will transform it into [[en:rpd:freerunner_armor|Freerunner Armor]], which is specifically designed for this subclass.

==== Advantages ====
  * Significantly faster movement speed when conditions are met
  * Harder to hit when running
  * Excellent for escape and positioning
  * Good for hit-and-run tactics

==== Disadvantages ====
  * Requires being unencumbered (not overburdened)
  * Must not be starving
  * Speed advantage is lost when heavily loaded
  * Requires careful food management
