---What to up ?---

Stamina, Strength or Agility ?

Assassin’s Hp, Strength is identical to Beggar, and their defense is identical to Pyro. Their Mag defense is a little bit lower than Shaolin, making them the lowest. Having say that, their Agility gain is somewhat the 2nd highest in the 4 physical class. Evasion is lower than Beggar and Accuracy is lower than Pyro, Beggar. The best way to add skill is an emphasis on Agility to make up for the lack of Accuracy and for their devastating skill.

So…… they are not the best in the 4 physical class in any caterogy at all. What make up for that is their unique sets of skill. The damage rating from the 2 skill that you get at the beginning when joining class is the highest in all 9 class, even higher than Taoist’s skill. Moreover, they are the only class have Invisible skill. With that, they can control the flow of the match.

Which Skill Book to up ?

Assassin’s Skill is the simplest to up since all the book is required. However, you may choose to up your feat level in a way that you will be able to obtain skill first. That is your first priority, Assassin’s stats is low, but their skill make up for that.


Pet

Pet choice for Assassin is a pet that can dish out lots of damage, like Tiger or Boar, but not Dog (Dog has skill Loyalty, which is a defensive skill). It is better if the pet is Spi Attacker like Swallow, Parrot. In Dragon Oath, Pet that are Spi Attacker will always does more damages against 95% monster than Phys Attacker. Same rule against human, when they get to high level, the def defense will rise higher than spi defense. In sp attacker at low level there spi defense is higher then defense, but that will change in the future. Moreover, if your pet have an invisible skill, it is a perfect match for Assassin. Because if your Assassin is invisible but your pet isn’t, then the opponent can easily predict where you are based on your pet.

Nevertheless, since Assassin and their pet doesn't rely much on each other as much as other class (namely Pyro, Taoist, Royalty, Lotus, etc). Keep in mind that Assassin is a class that deal with instant blow and kill fast, so choosing a pet with high damage is ur best bet.

[jethro09]

[dete_lynn]

no you need to create another role

[phantomknight]

how do you know what your skill level is

[Souljin2010]

how do you know what your skill level is

i think the discipline = skill level am i right? and the buff of book 3 can be obtain if you finish the quest called lost skills.

[rezbak]

i have a really quick question, i dont really know anything about assassin, but there's an assassin skill, that he sents out a chunk of ice falling from sky, or hail.

1) Do u know the exact name of that skill? Star have been longing to know what skill is it called so it makes me wonder as well.

based on what you say... "ice falling from sky"... that skill doesnt belong to assassin. It actually is IceStorm SS, a pet skill. Cost 1k gold +

[rezbak]

how to use them????

[darkknightX]

Mayb those item can be used later on wen game updates and we hav more recps

[sifatmasum]

well ka u got one thing wrong at beggining,sure assasins r good for their hidden and ice skills but their crit atks make them deadly and feared by most classes cause they hve low crit def.

u can see if a begger and a sin hve same agility,begger might get mroe hit and reflex then sin but sin gets more crits then beggers

[darkknightX]

u can see if a begger and a sin hve same agility,begger might get mroe hit and reflex then sin but sin gets more crits then beggers

if sins and beggar have same agi then sins will hav more crit and beggar will have more reflex and hit is same for both classes :p

[sifatmasum]

well dark,urwrong .

sure they might hve close points but beggers get more then sin on ref and hit and sins get more crit then beggers.

u once gave a topic on sins why they miss even if they hve more then 3k hit.while beggers on 3k hit always gets mroe from it.if a sin has 20 crit hit and same of a begger,then sin will give 3/4 crits on damage while begger 2/4 chances.so same for other states on everything.thats why i said it.same goes for every other classes

[darkknightX]

well dark,urwrong .

lol 1 agi = 8 hit for sins and beggar so its the same
jus diff is sins get 3.3 reflex and beggars get 4 reflex
and so ur telling that even if they have same hit, beggars will hit more?

[sifatmasum]

hit means u will miss le4ss so yes even if we do get same amount it depends on our class.a shao with 3k hit will miss alot more then begger with 3k hit cause shao specielty is not agi, its sta so they will get more defense from physical defense even if they r the same points as any other

[DickTracy]

hit means u will miss le4ss so yes even if we do get same amount it depends on our class.a shao with 3k hit will miss alot more then begger with 3k hit cause shao specielty is not agi, its sta so they will get more defense from physical defense even if they r the same points as any other

Dude your the only one wrong here youre just Lv 6x pretend to discuss with Lv 9x players.... As darkknight said

Beggar and Sin same Lv both full Agi(Not minding equips, etc) they will have same HIT ammount, The diffrent will be Beggar more REFLEX cuz thats their main stat and Sin more CRI HIT/CRI DEF cuz thats their main stat.... So when you say Sins have higher cri hit and low cri hit def you are right and wrong...

They both higher on that stat cuz they get the most points per Lv/Agi point of there CRI HIT/ CRI DEF ........

So as Beggars gets them on REFLEX ......

Capici!! :D

[DickTracy]

hit means u will miss le4ss so yes even if we do get same amount it depends on our class.a shao with 3k hit will miss alot more then begger with 3k hit cause shao specielty is not agi, its sta so they will get more defense from physical defense even if they r the same points as any other

lol you have idea what are you saying???

If a shao and beggar both have 3k hit it means they will HIT and MISS the same ammount of Attacks... It will just depend on who they be targetting

And if you compare this both classes (not mindin equips, etc) fighting both with 3k hit.. Of course the shaolin will MISS more than the beggar due to the beggar has higher REFLEX... What will be counter by the shaolin higher HP/Defense what would means the beggar do less damage on him

[sifatmasum]

dude i never said sin hve low crit def.

do u get it i never said pking one another.take example on a poacher from yt.

they give a normal atk series of 4 atks each class then begain in the seriel and and again.so out of 4 atks,most of the time sin gives 3/4 on crit atks even if the crit atk amount isd same as other class while if another class has the same,they give less times of crits.and crits is nto the damage its other thing.wu saw urself right when u give crit atk the damage number becomes bigger in size.so thats what i meant.and i never said i'm expert but it is true.i made a sin with lv21 only.and when that one atks any mob,that one gives most of the times critical damage rather then normal damage even if the crit amount is low and low damage but still crit atk is crit does not count the damage inflicted.cause teh cirt hit increases the amount the damage will give when the damage is critical and gives more.not saying that 21 crit meansg gives 21 more atk,itys gives chance of more damage up

[sifatmasum]

and by the way dark,i know u r high lvl and u obviously knw more abnout the game then me,i'm not denying that but beggers miss ccause we get more benefit with hit and ref then other classes while sin gets more benefit from crit hits and def cause thats their specielty even if they hve same amount of crit or not.

try testing any lvl on any type of mob with same lv charecter qith same attributes and same ref and hit.begger will miss alot less then any other class while sin will give alot more crititcal damage then other classses even if the states r the same.a low lvl sin gives crit atks even if low amount.out of seriel atks they give,sins mostly keep atking giving critical even if low damage while beggers on low lvl and high for all dodges more and misses alot less cause we get more ebnefit.its teh class most of the time

[darkknightX]

if they hav same amount its the same!!
it depends on the target that u hit and if both classes hav same hit ITS same :D

[sifatmasum]

well correct me if i'm wrong then,in a topic onsin class or some other i forgot,was it not someone said who had lv90 sin with 3k hit and still missed high lvl mobs.while a low lvl with same amount can hit and miss less for all types of mobs

[Ka]

well correct me if i'm wrong then,in a topic onsin class or some other i forgot,was it not someone said who had lv90 sin with 3k hit and still missed high lvl mobs.while a low lvl with same amount can hit and miss less for all types of mobs

a lv 90 with 3k hit is pretty low.......

As matter of fact regarding whether about ur hit rate - Luck play an important role too.

[sifatmasum]

not always ka.

every class gets benefit from their own specielty.even if a shao has low sta then that of another class,they get take less damage from mobs cause their specielty is physical def so thats what i'm trying to say.

even if one has lower amount,they get more benefit from it then other.sins get the msot benefit out of crit when they atk with furious amounts of crits

[orthagar]

pretti cool :p ... go assasin :rolleyes:
assasins rock:cool:

[goonzukingX]

wait so i shud put it on Agility? and use Spirit Pets? oh and btw. for assassin equipments, ik to use circle and fan. but for everything else, i shud use equipments that adds the following attributes: phy atk, spi def(?), agi, hit, dodge, ice atk. and am i missing anything?

[tinanguyen]

hi anyone help me tell me what i need to add for stat for assassin please

[random sin]

well dark,urwrong .

sure they might hve close points but beggers get more then sin on ref and hit and sins get more crit then beggers.

u once gave a topic on sins why they miss even if they hve more then 3k hit.while beggers on 3k hit always gets mroe from it.if a sin has 20 crit hit and same of a begger,then sin will give 3/4 crits on damage while begger 2/4 chances.so same for other states on everything.thats why i said it.same goes for every other classes

Begger get more reflex. sin get more crit. They both get 8 points of hit per agi point. The hit is the same if they have the same agi(and assuming a minimal difference in gear) that is different from when they have the same hit. the same hit means they have the same chance to hit.

[random sin]

dude i never said sin hve low crit def.

do u get it i never said pking one another.take example on a poacher from yt.

they give a normal atk series of 4 atks each class then begain in the seriel and and again.so out of 4 atks,most of the time sin gives 3/4 on crit atks even if the crit atk amount isd same as other class while if another class has the same,they give less times of crits.and crits is nto the damage its other thing.wu saw urself right when u give crit atk the damage number becomes bigger in size.so thats what i meant.and i never said i'm expert but it is true.i made a sin with lv21 only.and when that one atks any mob,that one gives most of the times critical damage rather then normal damage even if the crit amount is low and low damage but still crit atk is crit does not count the damage inflicted.cause teh cirt hit increases the amount the damage will give when the damage is critical and gives more.not saying that 21 crit meansg gives 21 more atk,itys gives chance of more damage up

You need to understand the difference between pure agility and the stats that go up with it.
