User blog:Shalax/Character Class: Assassin

Both the first Archer released, and the second Rogue released, the Assassin is the one and only hybrid class.

Equally adept at eliminating their targets from afar or up close, Assassins rely on poison at any range; dipping their wristbow bolts in a toxic venom that paralyzes nearly instantly, leaving them vulnerable for a coup de grace. However, such venom is expensive, and dangerous to collect, so it is also very expensive

Assassins start in U'laar or Venaria, depending on their player.

They start with a wristbow, fifty untipped iron bolts, Paralyzing Venom, and an iron dagger.

At level one, Assassins learn Envenom, which lets them use poison to coat their weapons. At level 15, they learn Sure shot, which is one guaranteed hit at any range so long as it's in range. At 30, they learn backstab, which is a normal attack doing 200% of its damage if done from behind, and instantly causes aggro. This is why at 50 they learn Disengage, which is a backwards leap while firing a bolt from their wristbow. Be careful not to disengage over cliffs folks!

You certainly won't survive falling into a haystack, after all
