The Assassin Guide

ArkToNE - Harshlands

Unrealistic, a Liar, AND a Troll. The list doesn't stop, does it.

Ah yes, you managed to get to level 150 with monsters that barely hit level 120, world questing for a miniscule amount of exp past level 100, a BARELY introduced (probably non-existant) Bounty Hunter system at the time, and Crazy Stone that probably require perfect/immaculate/higher stones that'll cost you billions in coins very quickly: in which you had the time and effort to get all that coin by selling something non-existant. In fact, you must have spent tens of thousands of dollars on the other server with charms or other such materials in order to get that level. Not only that, you spent a good 2/3rd of the year just getting level 1 to 89 in Lost City, you must've spent 3 years to get to 150 playing nonstop as archer. Breaking yoru back daily in order to get all that coin and money to level up. So, which brings up the question... why ARE you here after working so hard to get to 150 EA? I mean, the average level in MY, even with the server merge, is roughly 105 at higher levels and they seem to be only interested in PvPing.

I'd give up the farce now. It simply won't work.

pfft this is a tide born guide not an archer guide so even IF he has a level 150 ea is really doesn't matter, just cause someone has a level 101 barb doesn't mean they know anything about how to play an archer or a blade master

No that is in referance to my "low" level. As if it has anything to do with anything. Also, since you are unaware there were no daily's back then and it was mostly grinding. We had to walk uphill both ways to 1k and listen to noob players whine at us. Lets get back on topic of how fail this guide is though.

If only there was some way to raise atk speed at all....hmmm can't think of one. How about the DD aspect of it since normal attacks won't work? I love people who realize they are being trolled however it makes it so much more fun. I mean sin's are "specialists" after all. Since this is the case archers, barbs, veno's, bm's, mages, clerics, and psychics are all specialists. Sin's are DDers

P.S. MY has the same cap as here. I'm here because I got sick of reading Mandarin after I learned Cantonese. Please go at least read about the game before coming here and assuming you know about it because you played other MMO's. Fail

yes your a troll we know, but have to reply to someone while flying lol

and yes things like demon spark(if you can get it now) and - interval gear will increase your attack speed, i still can't see it out damaging skills, and you also get chill of the deep lol

ArkToNE - Harshlands

Phew, that was a lot of hard work. I managed to get a few of the technicals in. Hopefully I can get more of the formulas in. For now, I need to find someone with Rib Strike Level 2. I need to know the damage of it.

Mcflugal - Lost City

DO NOT LEVEL RAVING SLASH!!!
I REPEAT DO NOT!!!
ITS COMPLETELY USELESS!!!

RAISE TWIN STRIKE TO LVL2 BUT NO HIGHER!!!
IS VERY USEFULL TIL YOU GET SLIPSTREAM!!!

Do raise tide form-increases defense and swim speed and tideborns will swim.

Do raise shadow walk-this is probly one of the most usefull assassin skills.

Do raise wind push-assassins have low health so will need to run away.

Do raise wolf emblem-assassins dnt have the hardest hits so extra crit is awesome.

GO WITH THIS ADVICE!!!

yeap and oracalers have such great experience don't they? i'm sure they'll be able to tell us what skills are good for leveling =D!

hmm... do you look down on friends who got accounts from their friends with that attitude too? technically they didnt even oracle and jumped to 70+ 80+ 90+ in one day.

Yishuin - Sanctuary

Ok so everybody is telling that's a stupid guide and things like that... but anyway this is a guide.

If you don't aggre with this one so make a guide of your own and stop laming at its writer.

New classes are on for 4 days, and its nice to guide new players on these new races.

This is the attitude that has so many fails on the servers. Use your brain and do some basic math then you will be fine. Guides will be made when people understand the classes and this is why everyone is bashing this one. Guides cannot be made in 4 days.

ArkToNE - Harshlands

Ignore the forum trolls, especially those from Lost City. Not only is this particular troll an elitist, but not a very intellectual one at that. Our poor troll here suffers through a chronic inferiority complex and makes is liar on top. If he actually had ANY valid input, it would already be in the guide; however, as you can see, he has yet to make even one realistic and helpful post throughout this entire Assassin sub-forum.

Reminder: Trolls thrive on the misery of others. Your disappointment makes them happy.

x.x it's a joke taking the **** out of a stereotype

but yes people who get given or buy an account of a class they have never played don't generally do to well till they have got some proper experience

Oh believe me, it's updating. Right now I'm working out the formulas and hopefully work with Ecatomb a bit in order to get you even more up to date with Assassin skills.

HollowMartyr - Raging Tide

Thanks ^.^ I love getting a heads up on what skills I should look into or avoid...Math info is great for that. Taking time out of your life to try to put info out there for players is a great service to our class XD Whether or not I agree with every inch of it doesn't matter (Even though I do agree with most of it haha)...It's way better then nothing and I can form my own opinions on skills thanks to this guide... which is really helpful

your fail and should never post a guide b:angry why because i say so without adding any proof or proper reason b:angryb:angry

proofe or proper eason did u even read my comment the proof is his the skill guide it is clearly fcked up and needs some work i lvled the skills he dident say to lvl and i manage more than the ones that actually follow his skill guide

Piliener - Lost City wrote: »

My main point was if you are going to make a guide don't put skills that you don't even have in it. If you would like to be person number 1273289 who judges people by there level then be my guest...I only ask you come to the server I'm from and say that to my 150 ea b:shutup. I also only ask for maybe a disclaimer that you don't fully understand the class and their many roles in pve/pvp/tw/gv/ect

i agree totaly b:victory

oh really and what skills have you leveled that he didn't suggest leveling just yet that actually helped you level easier aye?

Legendadry - Harshlands

Dude your only makeing yourself look bad by feeding the trolls and makeing accusations towards people. Dont take personally what we say as offense to you. Its to early to make a guide. plain and simple. We said what you wrote was a nice start, leave it at that.

ArkToNE - Harshlands

After careful analysis, I'm doing more work on the mathematics. It seems slightly more complicated than I thought and needs at least 3 points of reference rather than 2.

YellowFin - Lost City

best guide so far

Piliener - Lost City

Well the best so far isn't saying much...it will probably be obsolete with the update. Like Legendary said it's a good start. Skills will most likely updated with patch and such. I would like to add a suggestion w/o trolling you...add a genie section for what skills you recommend and the best usage for certian skills pve/pvp/tw/ect.

ragealot

say ppl i ask for help in what is the best build for the assassin, i need to know i am lost and plz reply and not ingnore

samboow

Thanx for this guide! it helped me so much!
I learned from the combats and assassin fighting techniques very much. I made 2 low level combo's wich I find really useful:
- this one cost chi, so make sure you have enough!
Deep sting -> slipstream strike -> puncture wound -> normal attack -> twin strike -> normal attack -> slipstream strike
Usually I just walk away form my enemy after the first normal attack, because the enemy will bleed to death by the bleed effect form puncture wound.
- this one is useful when you don't have enough Chi!
Knife throw -> puncture wound -> slipstream strike
Of course you can walk away after puncture wound, because of the bleed effect

(Gosh I love puncture wound =D)

HollowMartyr - Raging Tide

I wouldn't lead with Deep Sting...Then he's just sitting there taking no damage or you break the sleep with another skill or attack...Kinda a waste in my opinion...If you bleed them first they'll continue taking bleed damage during their sleep status...Ftw. That and Twin Strike is proven to be pretty weak... A well used combo is to: Puncture Wound, SlipStream, Basic attack down (Before 29) or an alternative is to Deep Sting after those and your CD for PW and SS will be done so you can restart those (Good for Defense or Life mobs) Some higher levels have posted strats once you get the awesome-tastic 29 moves here also.

Agreed. It's not the first time I see someone suggesting a combo that starts with Deep Sting. Doesn't make sense to me.

Vacine - Raging Tide

For the build i strongly recomnad this build : 7 dex 2 str and 1 vit
Pros: last longer,don't have to worry about if you could wear the next amour/weapon,base attk increase (if i am not worng)
Cons:less power,Less Crt hit (which can be boost by wolf emblem and lv 1 of it work totally perfect)

And i strongly recomand geting windpush to 5 and stop for RB reason.
I believe Bloodpaint is use as a squard buff in TT TW and FBs but i do agree of keeping it @ 1 as it is quite pointless of getting it.

Thoratcut can be use more freaquently in later lv when you get inner harmony.

Not too sure about Deep Sting, I heard that its not a really good skill to get but i am not sure about it. After reading this i think its fine to lv it.

Knife Throws should be use by player who want to PvP later and not thoese who don't want to PvP. Get it to 3 would be enugh reason is i rmb that some TT boss has AOE skill and **** can cancell it for the team =D
