Now I personaly am very much new to the Assassin class, I researched this class for quite awhile, I knew going into this that I would be slurping HP pots like crazy, currently just owned the Ocean Tusker, with a lovley squad of course. Up until level 18 I was using a Small Guardian Charm (Heals HP when it reaches a critical point), and have currently aquired another one through a quest.

I have come to realize that it is MUCH easier to do what is needed in order to level up whilest having one. My question however is quite simple, upon running out of this charm I will have no way of aquiring one unless by some sheer happenstance I get one in a quest.

Is there anyway to make one of these or perhaps buy them? Is there anything similar to these charms that has the same effect? I would apperciate any feedback reguarding this situation.
Thanks,
Zuppy

    There is no way to make a charm. Your only options are to buy from the cs using real money, use in game coin to buy gold for use in the cs, or buy from another player. However if you choose to buy with in game coins charms can be quite expensive. I will tell you though when played correctly in higher levels your assassin should be fairly self sufficient and need very few pots for PvE even without a charm.

    On my assassin I currently use life powders. They recover 50 HP per second when not in combat mode (12.5 when in combat mode I believe) for 10 minutes, which has been more than enough while I'm fighting. You make them out of Golden Herb and Nectar.

    Thank you both, umm quick question to the last person. Who do you go to make lifepowder? I understand the whole ingrediants proposal, however I seem to be out of luck trying to find the right person to attemp and craft it.

    Nevermind that last post, it seems I got lazy in my search to find the lifepowder. Go figure the Apo skill allows you to make it.
    Thank you guys so very much.

    Lifepowder is a fantastic option as well. Also I'm not sure what level you are but once you get to 50 or so try using on magic mobs Deep Sting followed by Rib Strike and then normal attacks till dead. On physical mobs use Rib Strike followed by regular attacks till dead. With Bloodpaint on I think you will be happily surprised at how effectively you kill. Combine bloodpaint with lifepowders and you should never need to stop, or use HP pots. b:victory

    You may also find it beneficial to get a genie and use the Second Wind skill. If you have the genie which starts with 15 str, just keep feeding into it because each strength point adds an additional 2% more to how much the skill will heal you. As it is, I can use this when I do not have life powder, or even go without it. The only disadvantage is that you have to feed your genie those chi stones, but those can be acquired by decomposing weapons (and armor?). Still, it is good to have anyways because if you ever go up against a mob that happens to do damage fast enough that your life powder can't keep up, it's a good instant heal, rather than the recovery time that comes with pots.

    I believe the affinity points required for the skill are one water, one earth, and one wood.

    Personally though, I believe you should be able to do most everything by yourself with just life powder, Second Wind, and some pots. I pretty much had to solo the Ocean Tusk because my team died almost instantly, and it was just a matter of kiting for healing and then attacking. Also so far have managed to solo the elite mobs up to 29, with the exception of Farng and Qingzi.

    Anyways, good luck with your assassin.
