    My question is: Why on earth do people PK on a sin?

    Because if coming out of nowhere (or actually, coming out of stealth) and faceroll on keyboard doesn't kill your target, the stinking fish smell will.

    Now really, 4 pages and I'm still wondering... was that a serious question? b:puzzled

    ^I approve this message.

    Seriously, pking on a sin is a joke, I also watched abstractive's vid he linked, it just made me feel ill, the one skill that the mages have to get out of "danger" is 100% negated because a sin has the ability to teleport to there opponent...yes teleport.

    When did assassins learn the art of crossing into the next world to be un-seen and then learn the ability to teleport to people with an option of stunning just because they appeared there, as I've said before, wizards should be the one turning invisable.

    Why can they stuff a knife up your butt 5 times in a second?

    Do you think there's any kind of logic or logical realism behind any of this game?

    No... none at all.

    well tbh if Stealth is taken out or gimped then most sins would be very easy to kill and the balance would be shifted cause lets face it, without it Sins WILL be a BM even if you put up some long wall of arguements saying they wouldn't be. Till then this discussion is kinda moot. o.o (fyi this is why most players go Sin and just make a **** weapon, since 6/10 they don't need too much in the way of defence. o.o)
    OH. also, Domain or Expel to all non-sin chars. get it.

    can you cast AD or expell when you're dead by a one shot?



    TBH, those skills sux against a sin... the best is Badge of Courage for a dex genie

    you do realize most sins only make an OP weapon and don't concentrate on other gear outside interval, right? and half of the time a sin kills, it's from lack of preparedness from the person hes attacking. if you can see a sin attack, it will weaken them considerably as a whole, minus the R9s who **** no matter what.
    oh ALSO the fact that sins aren't all 100+. o.o

    Teleport, teleport stuns, buffs, heals, stun, sleep, seal,


    Sin can stand 35 meters away from you tele stun, hit hit zerk, you're dead. All before you even see them o.O So I would have to disagree with you on the statement made earlier.

    There are quite a few sins that do not simply rely on stealth and still kill the target. I am at the point, the sins that I see stealthed coming for me, I try to get them before me. The sins that I can't see (without pots) will get me anyways so no point in stealthing.

    I started this sin with a duel purpose. Farming and to withstand the stealth pops that my ep and other toon's couldn't. Now, I am nearing end game, gear wise and can just further my refines after the NV dags. PvP wise, I do not do much of it, unless its KOS and I can't help having a little fun.

    Not being a "typical "RAWR!! YOU ARE APS DEAD! LOLUMAD?" sin", I still have plenty of fun in this game farming for my alts and running with lowbies from time to time. Not every sin is a dlck, imo, majority of the damage done to the sin rep came from the players who go pk crazy and not the class itself (at least early on.).

    Answer to you: No its the class, just because some if not most sins arent total cockbites and would be so on any class they chose to play, doesent mean its a blanced pvp system.

    Translated answer to the OP: No, i really dont enjoy pvp on my sin thus why i have these other classes, stuff"

    People PvP on 'sins because they obviously got tired to PvP with their ridiculously OP barbs.

    Indeed. I was more or less referring to before the **** really hit the fan with the aps craze. Used to, one could survive a stealth attack with decent timing, genie skills, or pots. Being killed without hits even registering is more than enough to **** people off. I guess I'm focusing on old reasons that made me roll a sin, and haven't experienced anything heavy from another classes point of view recently. I'm not trying to defend sin's by saying " OP LEET CLASS " or anything, just keeping an open mind and taking in the complaints.

    Seriously? I hope that was in fact sarcasm. Early on, a sin trying to take down a barb is a joke. In latter levels, unless a barb has godly gear and refines, they are rather easy to dispatch.

    See, this is why sins have a reputation of being ****ing dumb as balls.

    The only thing an assassin will have trouble taking down is a +10 r8/r9 or higher psychic.Barbs are easy imo even with r9 lol.

    That's like asking 'Why do people sleep in beds?'. Hell, it's even in the class's name. "Assassin"... they assassinate other players.

    It makes a lot of sense.

    @Infernia: I can/could kill most non-sin people with only my weapon or with lvl 15 daggers (Maybe not charmed HA classes...). So having bad gear as a sin is not really an excuse.

    hahaha du Held! XD





    oooo i rolled a sin and its 100 and geared soon o_o
    pk with it? probably not, i would miss aoe


    i was in a squad with only lvl103 sins for group pvp today, feeling dumb while sitting there "alone" surrounded by lots of invisible allies Dx waiting for the enemy squads to rebuff and return T_T


    the future: we all are only playing on our assasins, cause its the best for pve and pvp
    everyone gets on their "TW alt" once or twice a week and then back to sin - hurray?
