The Assassin is one of the Hybrid Vocations in the game, which is only available to the Arisen. It costs 1,500 Discipline Points in order to switch to it. The Assassin is the most versatile Vocation in the game, since it is able to equip many different weapons, giving it access to four different sets of skills.
- Primary Weapon: Swords/Daggers
- Secondary Weapon: Shields/Shortbows
- Primary Stat: Strength
The Assassin is able to use a sword or dagger, as well as a shield or shortbow, giving it access to many different skills. They are able to turn invisible, which is extremely helpful in avoiding both physical and magical damage (although they can still be grabbed). They have the highest strength growth of all Vocations. When using daggers, they have access to the dodge roll and double jump abilities.
While there aren't many weaknesses for the Assassin, the few they have make them especially troublesome. They have one of the lowest defense ratings in the game, making them extremely vulnerable should they get hit by enemies. They also have horrible Magick Attack and Defense growths, meaning enemies resistant to physical attacks or those with powerful magicks are a big problem.
