Assassin

Assassin

Elements None

A class that is good at sneaking around like a lion circling around its prey. Using bleed effects to finish off their enemies quickly, they certainly earn the title of "Assassin".

Assassin Armor

The Light Armor suits this class best, but if you like more psychical defense you can use Heavy Armor, though it will require more Str points that you could have put in your Dex.

Assassin in PvP

Assassins are good in PvP only if they use their stealth to sneak up on enemies that cannot see them. Assassins don't have much HP or physical or magical defense so they need to be quick and kill the enemy within seconds before they get a chance to fight back. However, when faced with heavy armor classes like the BM and barb, they will find killing them quickly enough to be difficult. Evasion helps, but if even one move hits it's probably going to be either half to a third of your HP, so may want to avoid attacking the heavy armor users.

Assassin in PvE

Assassins are between bad and okay in PvE, like in PvP. If the assassin kills the enemy first, then that's good. But with such low HP and resistances, it's hard to kill a mob before it deals damage nearly equal to half your HP. After killing a mob, you might need to use potions, meditate, or maybe your charm will tick. It's better to do quests or grind with someone who can tank or heal you. After all, assassins, like archers, are pure damage dealers.

Assassin in Territory Wars

Assassins works very easily if they are unnoticed, they can hide behind allies and strike at enemies that are busy killing others, and even high-level people might be an easy target for assassins. If you're working as a team I recommend obtaining Barbarians and Blademasters for hiding. Because while they stand out, you can sneak behind them and kill the enemy.
