Not really very good. Lots of extremely overpowered abilities. Better versions of the abilites of other classes. Cherry picked favorites from other classes. No real cohesion. Also I don't understand the flavor. What mists is this walking. Ranger and druids are nature. Paladins are religious warriors, barbarians are violent ragers, etc. This has some kind of unexplained magical mist that does not exist in any campaign world except Ravenloft as far as I'm aware, and this doesn't seem particularly flavored for Ravenloft.
Also appears unfinished. Description mentions they use bows, however bows are not weapon they are proficient with, nor do they get a specialization for it.
Mistwalk ability is seriously OP. Teleport unlimited times as a move action and/or a bonus action, doing so does not provoke attacks of opportunity nor can it be interrupted.
Edit: I have now played a campaign with a player using a Mist Walker. I have to say after having this experience, this class is even more broken than previously thought. Our party had 6 players, 2 tanks, 2 casters and a monk in addition to the mist walker. Using point buy stats.
The Mist Walker had the highest AC, highest HP, and a higher attack bonus than anyone else. They were never in base contact with an enemy when it was the enemies turn to attack. An attack of opportunity was never made on them. They never even took any damage!! They tied for second highest damage in the party (being only outdone by a wizard)
It wasn't even fun to play with one in the party because they did everything the other classes could do, but better.
