    Assassin is perhaps the only class that can meaningfully use the Force Hatchet, which doubles your power but empties your stamina the moment you get hit. The Assassin not only has powerful defensive tools, but can simply build up power in the Force Hatchet and then switch to ranged sniping. With all your arrows dealing double damage, you become the best archer in the game.

      Same for Ranger, use force hatchet (i builds power with arrows kill), a single tenfold should one shot pretty much anything, Daiomn dies on one tenfold blast (1st form), and repeat twice) for second, don´t get hit by anything and you whipe the floor with arrows.

    Snakebite is pretty nice for what it is because it knocks down small enemies almost guaranteed, letting you combo an enemy to death and while you are in the snakebite you can’t be hit, but to each their own. One of my fave assassin skills.

    I will mention that masterful kill is VERY forgiving with it's timings. The skill counts the ENTIRE animation as it's window to parry.
    This means you can press the button a whole 4 seconds before the enemy swings and still parry them. Ridiculously OP 😂
    Edit: after testing, it actually counts a second past the animation too. My character stopped blocking and it still parries attacks. Hell, it even parries attacks that don't hit you.

Still a handsome boost, and as expected as a lone arisen i have already outleveled a regular full party run at the same part of the game, thanks to the 75% xp boost. So more levels, more stats, that get a 20% extra attack, and before even grinding as a warrior for Clout.

      Don't sweat 'builds' because this isn't Dark Souls, levels do the majority of the heavy lifting. If you absolutely must min/max, then fortunately in this case Assassin benefits most from its own strength gains, so levelling specifically Assassin optimizes Assassin. However, levelling exclusively Assassin will leave you with fuck all magick damage, so bear that in mind.

  • @heyfell4301
    @heyfell4301 Рік тому

    I think the only reason why I myself am not a big fan of Assassin is its early game presentation. Like... all Advanced classes gain a new awesome weapon, Warrior gets greatswords, Ranger gets longbows and Sorcerer gets the Archstaff (which is boring as hell but he makes up for that with cool new spells).
    Then the Hybrid classes come, with Magick Archer gaining the most unique weapon of all as that "magebow" (forgot the name), the Mystic Knight having a glorious greatshield (and a mace, but I don't care about the mace) while the Assassin... gets all the weapons from Fighter and Strider but nothing unique... yeah.
    To be fair, the game does let you know really quickly that this is a different class by making one of your first sword skills be a completely different one (the Intimate Strike, something like that), but playing this class the first time I just felt like I was playing a "Jack of All Trades, Master of None" and switched off really quickly. Only came back now because I've seen footage of how fun this seems at max rank (and also I wanna min-max damage and magick in this run, so it's 90 levels as an Assassin and 100 levels in Sorcerer).

    • @ThiefofCrystals
      @ThiefofCrystals  Рік тому +1

      If you've an interest in daggers, I'd recommend starting as Strider, it places the most immediate focus on those weapons compared to any other vocation. After that point I'd say it's really up to you, feel free to experiment with different vocations and feel out what you enjoy most between them. Aside from stat gains (which can still be compensated for if necessary) you really don't have to worry about being locked into any given path.
      As far as customization goes, go with whatever you like, but interestingly larger characters are capable of walking/jogging faster (but not sprinting,) and roll farther - they also have longer weapon reach along with a larger hitbox. whereas smaller characters can fit in certain places larger ones can't, and since their hitbox is smaller they're that little bit harder to hit. Similarly, heavier characters have greater encumberance values and base stamina, while lighter ones restore stamina at a faster rate. Small differences really, so feel free to go with whatever you like!

      Enchanted weapons or even tomes are available, although not in large quantities, but they can be crafted as well. Took me forever to find an enchanted weapon though, and I found it in BitterBlack Isle. Dragon's Ire was the name. Best melee weapon I had until I beat Grigori.

    Ah, the golden days of endgame vanilla in ye olden 7th gen of consoles.
    It's sad 'cause back then there wasn't even anything strong enough to warrant the kind of violence that the unholy union of Autonomy + Bloodlust was dishing out and now that we do have strong enemies in BBI we will never truly know just how bad Daimon would get disrespected on a daily basis. Tbh Ranger's still out here being a complete menace to the entire concept of anything at all ever being alive while suffering from a heavy addiction to Blast Arrows but it just. ain't. the same.
    But then again we wouldn't have force hatchet shenanigans nor MA actualy being top tier if it weren't for DA so it evens out i guess.
    still gonna miss it tho.

    So Assassin is like a quality build from a Souls game.
    Im torn between Mystic Knight or Assassin, I Love the paladin style from the MK but seems it would probs get boring after a while with all the buffing, Whereas Assassin is the most versatile and i love using bows.

    • @over9000optimally
      @over9000optimally Рік тому

      Mystic knight is super satisfying with it's perfect blocks when the shield is enchanted. Plus, the great canon and ruinous sigil pair with any enchantment you have and give you a close range trap that'll target any enemies that get too close and a magic ball you strike like a bat to send magic projectiles at enemies in the distance, and they track. I used those two abilities and antler toss. Was great. I still like the assassin better, have a harder time feeling satisfied with my skill choice with it.

      Generally speaking my favoured weaponry with Assassin is Sword + Bow. My sword skills are usually comprised of Burst Strike (for covering distance + knockdown,) Clairvoyance (for some measure of defense,) and Dire Gouge (for raw damage to large enemies.)
      Bow skills are Fivefold for immediate damage, Mighty Bend for precision and knockback, and Lyncean Sight for longer ranges.
