This mod adds class-based abilities to Ark: Survival Ascended, introducing Tank, Healer, and Mage roles with distinct combat and support functions. Each class gains a curated set of active abilities designed for RPG-style progression and role-play scenarios. The goal is to give tribes more strategic depth in encounters while keeping the experience lightweight and compatible with typical ASA gameplay.

Admin Configs
These configs apply to all abilities. While that is true, they may not make 100% sense for each ability. Fireball, for example, probably doesnt need a Duration applied to it, as it's fire & forget.
