Assassins in pvp?

Max cat like tread and you'll be fine

don't listen to his BS. anyways as i see your playing on a pvp server and..asking about assassin pvp ability i can give you my opinions. true cat-like tread is a unique skill but...its not really usefull till much much later lvls. imo almost all of assassins skills tend to be pvp oriented. but make sure you lvl up your skills that can control your opponent. like ribstrike, deep sting, etc...

Hmm, state the obvious and you say my post is bs? or are you some noob I pked earllier?

As far as pvp goes 30+ we do very well. As far as mobs, 1v1 is fine as long as you use life powders your good (Psys tend to lvl faster b/c they have skills to keep mobs away and kill pretty fast but it only gets better as you lvl and plus their magic so thats a dif playing field) and of course we aren't made for aoe at all XD. Keep your gear updated and stick to the 4 dex 1 str build XD. And yes cat like thread should be kept up to date if you pvp alot because you get more stealth each lvl (2) than keeping up with shadow walk and shadow escape because we struggle with our spirit like other classes and have quite a bit of skills.

At 65 with TT60 daggers and decent gear I am able to kill mages 7x-8x so long as my shadow jump lands, barbs 6x and 7x if there armor isn't up to par, Clerics 6x-7x, bms 6x, archers depend how much they dodge I made my own build so its not your classic 1 vit 4 dex but it works well. The only class I can see that sin's have a problem with at the moment oddly is BM's. But later on I can see that changing once my evasion is much higher.

only thing what cahngeing the bm's get more acc ring like gold lv77 or tt90 or cv95, same like a good barb....

but this good news if u do same agaist archers

Thats when I was level 38 and had worst gear ever, and NO I didn't have any trouble with my assassin, at all, it was just I was loosing money and had no real way of making it back, so stfu noob.

>_< Why is it that all you can do is offer worthless advice and then flame others who call you out for it?

Not worthless advice I'm sure I help out lot of people, just a few people seem to be hate/jealous of me and maybe your another? I ain't seen you give any advice not to mention that is your opinion and invalid as its un true, once again stfu. Stay on topic?

-sigh- so you're saying to the op to just max cat-like thread and he'll be fine? What about other skills? It seems to me that you just wanted a quick +1 to your post count and because of that you just gave out lame advice that really doesn't help that much at lowerlevels >_<
Level up.... then give advice =P

And why would i be jealous of you? I'm quite comfortable in hoarding my wealth of knowledge, unlike you who feels the need to gloat about what little knowledge you have to offer...

Reposting here because I think it applies more to this thread:

My assassins still in his 20's so i dont have much pk experience yet b:chuckle . However, I was on my veno yesterday and saw a red assassin flying over sanc. I thought 'why not?' and attacked them. Quick breakdown of what happened:

-I stun with my nix and bleed while I ironwood/lucky scarab
-Assassin drops from the sky as charm ticks, purifying the bleed, and forcing into stealth.
-I vaguely remember something about stealth lvl being able to camoflauge up to 20 lvls higher (meaning that the assassin is at least 70/80+)
-I hover over the spot i saw him dissapear for 5 seconds going 'wtf'
-I start typing out a taunting pm. Before im done, he appears behind me, stuns me, does the amp damage attack, and kills me in four shots.
-I'm still hovering going 'wtf'

I check my damage logs later and find that i critted on my ironwood/lucky scarab, over 9 k damage, not counting lvl 5 nix bleed. All i did was tick his charm, whereas he managed to completely destroy me. Granted, i didnt have a charm on at the time and was unbuffed, but I was in my heavy armor set (+2 sharded lvl 79 mold).

Assassins ftw b:surrender

In all there great skill I only see an Assassin be very good in 1v1s. I mean if they get into a 2v1=Dead (meaning they don't to stealth and run away). IDK just a thought. Might be interesting to see them in TWs.

I think their job in TWs would be something like entering stealth mode and kill clerics and DDs fast so that the other ones in ur fact can get the ones who r still alive.(specially the barbs b:angry)
