Having an ability that allows the pirate to dodge would be interesting, in fact it would be really cool if all classes had an ability that allowed them to defend themselves or dodge an enemy attack.
Just imagine some good things about pirates. As we know, this kind is usually trying to steal gold and valuable things, so maybe, they need like a rogue/marskman style.
Skills Ideas:
"A Pirate Life For Me": As becoming a pirate, you learn to use Swords, so giving them like a 3% or 2% (now, it depends on devs) of crit with Swords, would be nice for them.
"Jackpot": Using a Blunderbuss, or even a gun powder, they use these weapons to do damage to the enemy. So, depends on what the Pirate uses, can be more or less DPS, but this ability could be used to do a insta crit; maybe 2-3 secs of charge its nice.
"More canons": Planting a Canon in the middle of the fight, like a turret that adds buffs to the allies, and debuff to the enemy. Optional, the turret can shoot a % of the stats of the Pirate
"Hide the gold": Adding an invisibility cloak, it only have 10 secs of the effect, but adds 30% speed player. That would be nice, thinking that pirates are like "thieves".
Aaaarrrrgggghhhh! We know the path on which the Pirate will go, but the Skills are what will give him an identity.
Throwing an Anchor and pulling enemies? A Cannon, like a sentry gun, blasting everything in front? A huge Tsunami, shielding all party/raid members?
The possibilities are endless for the Pirate, let's see what you have in mind!
-EN ESPAÑOL-
Lo de tirar el ancla y atraer a los enemigos me recordó a Nautilus, creo que el pirata podría tener una skill donde que le aumenta la velocidad de ataque con ciertas armas como los cañones, luego podría tener una skill donde lanza un pequeño barril de pólvora haciendo daño en área, creo que el pirata tiene muchas posibilidades, cualquiera que este balanceada es valida.
-IN ENGLISH-
Throwing the anchor and attracting enemies reminded me of Nautilus, I think the pirate might have a skill where it increases the speed of attack with certain weapons such as cannons, then it could have a skill where it throws a small barrel of gunpowder doing damage in area, I think the pirate has many possibilities, whatever this balanced is valid.
