| Assassins (and their transcended [[Assassin Cross]]) are able to equip a weapon in each hand and the exclusive users of [[Katar]] weapons. Assassins have a variety of damage dealing and poisoning skills. The Assassin are the only class who can walk slightly faster than any other class ingame as long as they leveled the proper skill ([[Thief]]'s [[Improve Dodge]]). The Katar wielding Assassins also receive double the normal amount of [[Stats#CRIT|critical]] hit rate. Therefore, whatever amount of critical rate Assassins have, it would always be doubled. | | Assassins are able to equip a weapon in each hand and are the exclusive users of [[Katar]] weapons.

| == Builds ==
| |
| ''As a note of clarification, most Assassin stat builds are very similar to one another. For example, the terms 'equip critical', and 'DD' describe '''equipment''' preferences, but the actual stats of these two builds are similar.''
| |
|
| |
| The skills which most Assassins will get is very similar, because of the relative weakness of the poison skills, and the small number of available assassin skills:
| |
| *{{Skill List |skill=Righthand Mastery |level=5 |simple=yes}}
| |
| *{{Skill List |skill=Lefthand Mastery |level=5 |simple=yes}}
| |
| *{{Skill List |skill=Katar Mastery |level=10 |simple=yes}} (for [[katar]] builds - though many DD sins max this as well to increase damage from Sonic Blow and Grim Tooth)
| |
| *{{Skill List |skill=Sonic Blow |level=10 |simple=yes}}
| |
| *{{Skill List |skill=Grimtooth |level=5 |simple=yes}}
| |
| *{{Skill List |skill=Enchant Poison |simple=yes}}
| |
| This leaves 5~15 points to use for poison skills, depending on the level of Enchant Poison and Cloaking.
| |
|
| |
| === Equip Critical ===
| |
|
| |
| * '''[[STR]]''': 60-90
| |
| * '''[[AGI]]''': 70-90
| |
| * '''[[VIT]]''': 50-80
| |
| * '''[[INT]]''': 1
| |
| * '''[[DEX]]''': 40-60
| |
| * '''[[LUK]]''': 40
| |
|
| |
| This build is very similar to that of a Dual Dagger Assassin, the difference being that they use Katars with cards that add to the [[CRIT]] rate of attacks. Even if your [[HIT]] is not high enough to hit the monster with your auto attacks, a [[CRIT]] will still land. A small amount of [[DEX]] is still necessary for skill usage, as many skills require DEX to land the hit on the monster.
| |
|
| |
| '''Examples of Useful Cards:'''
| |
|
| |
| * {{item |id=4086 Soldier Skeleton Cards}}: ([[Stats#CRIT|CRIT]] +9)
| |
| * +7 [[CRIT]] vs. [[Race]], +10% crit damage cards (commonly referred to as "Racial Crit" cards, such as {{item|id=4246 Assaulter Card}})
| |
| * {{item|id=4091 Kobold Cards}}: ([[STR]] +1 and [[Stats#CRIT|CRIT]] +4 each)
| |
| * {{item|id=4272 Zhu Po Long Cards}}: ([[AGI]] +1 and [[Stats#CRIT|CRIT]] +3 each)
| |
|
| |
| === Natural Critical ===
| |
|
| |
| Natural Critical Assassins are built almost the same as the Equipment Critical Assassins but with less DEX, more LUK (around 50~60), and sometimes less STR. They're equipped with [[Card Reference#Damage Increase|damage cards]] (i.e. Hydra, Santa Poring, etc) instead of critical rate enhancement cards for the Equip Critical Assassins. Natural Critical builds are not very effective and are generally not worth the tradeoffs.
| |
|
| |
| === Double Attack Katar ===
| |
|
| |
| * '''[[STR]]''': 70-90
| |
| * '''[[AGI]]''': 70-90
| |
| * '''[[VIT]]''': 50-80
| |
| * '''[[INT]]''': 1
| |
| * '''[[DEX]]''': 40-60
| |
| * '''[[LUK]]''': 20-40
| |
|
| |
| There are two ways to accomplish this: a high [[ATK]] Katar (like a Jamadhar) carded with one {{item |id=4117 Sidewinder Card}} or with a {{item |id=5283 Chick Hat}}. It is important to note that multi slotted low ATK weapons is not effective in Zero anymore, and it is usually best to go with the highest ATK weapon available (level 3 or 4 weapon preferred).
| |
|
| |
| === Dual Dagger ===
| |
|
| |
| {{Update}}
| |
|
| |
| * '''[[STR]]''': 70-90
| |
| * '''[[AGI]]''': 70-90
| |
| * '''[[VIT]]''': 50-80
| |
| * '''[[INT]]''': 1
| |
| * '''[[DEX]]''': 40-60
| |
| * '''[[LUK]]''': 20-40
| |
|
| |
| This is the quick build for leveling an Assassin. Note that the stats are similar to those of an Equip Critical build, and a Dual Dagger Assassin could pick up the gear of an Equip Critical build and have comparable performance. The main difference is the weapons used.
| |
|
| |
| '''Note: the following information may be outdated. It may be better to use high ATK weapons instead of multiple carded weapons now. It is safer to just go with a Katar build.'''
| |
|
| |
| '''Common Dagger Setup:'''
| |
|
| |
| * Triple [[Card_Reference#By_size_.28weapon.29|Size]] Damage carded {{item |id=1220 Gladius}} or [[Forging|elemental]] {{item |id=1222 Damascus}} on the right-hand, Quad [[Card_Reference#By_race_.28weapon.29|Race]] or [[Card_Reference#By_element_.28weapon.29|Element]] Damage carded {{item |id=1208 Main Gauche}} on the left-hand.
| |
| ** The ideal combination for a map with low-defense monsters is a Single [[Card_Reference#By_race_.28weapon.29|Race]], Single [[Card_Reference#By_element_.28weapon.29|Element]], Single [[Card_Reference#By_size_.28weapon.29|Size]] carded {{item |id=1220 Gladius}} + Double [[Card_Reference#By_race_.28weapon.29|Race]] or [[Card_Reference#By_element_.28weapon.29|Element]]), Single [[Card_Reference#By_element_.28weapon.29|Element]] or [[Card_Reference#By_race_.28weapon.29|Race]], Single [[Card_Reference#By_size_.28weapon.29|Size]] carded {{item |id=1208 Main Gauche}} + the correct [[Sage#Skills|endow]].
| |
| ** Without size cards, the ideal setup is Double [[Card_Reference#By_race_.28weapon.29|Race]] or [[Card_Reference#By_element_.28weapon.29|Element]], Single [[Card_Reference#By_Element_.28weapon.29|Element]] or [[Card_Reference#By_race_.28weapon.29|Race]] carded {{item |id=1220 Gladius}} + Double [[Card_Reference#By_race_.28weapon.29|Race]], Double [[Card_Reference#By_element_.28weapon.29|Element]] carded {{item |id=1208 Main Gauche}} + the correct endow.
| |
| * {{item|id=1230 Ice Pick}} on the right-hand, Quad [[Card_Reference#By_race_.28weapon.29|Race]] or [[Card_Reference#By_element_.28weapon.29|Element]] Damage / Double [[Card_Reference#By_element_.28weapon.29|Element]] and Double [[Card_Reference#By_race_.28weapon.29|Race]] carded {{item |id=1208 Main Gauche}} on the left-hand (for high DEF monsters).

| Many players find that leveling [[AGI]] classes can become expensive due to the need for healing on high [[Stats#HIT|HIT]] mobs (and in Zero, many mobs have had their HIT increased drastically). There is a simple solution that wont bankrupt new players starting out with little money to spend with: '''{{item |id=579 Fresh Fishes}}'''. This cheap, yet viable option is a great substitute for the ever expensive Potions sold by Tool Vendors (and their weight is only 2 each). They can be purchased from the Chef's Assistant in the center of Prontera (156, 212) as well as other locations for only 250z each (190z with max Discount). | | Many players find that leveling [[AGI]] classes can become expensive due to the need for healing on high [[Stats#HIT|HIT]] mobs (and in Zero, many mobs have had their HIT increased drastically).

| === Weapons ===
| |
| | |
| After considering what requirement skills have (some skills can only be used with certain weapon types), the Weapon Search tool within the Control Panel is very helpful. Generally, for physical classes (both melee and ranged), something with high [[ATK]] is best. For magic classes, something with high [[MATK]] is best.
