Data verified: pre-launch

Assassin is the ranged 2nd-job specialisation of the Thief branch, focused on hurling throwing stars from a Claw at long range. Where a 1st-job Thief is a generic, low-damage scout class, an Assassin is a committed ranged-damage class built around a single iconic skill, Lucky Seven, and the equipment, stats, and supporting passives that maximise its output.

Advancement

Assassin is a 2nd-job class advancing from Thief. The advancement quest unlocks at level 30 and is initiated in Kerning City.

Requirements to become an Assassin:

  • Level 30 or higher
  • Job: Thief
  • The thief 2nd-job advancement quest completed, with the Assassin path chosen (the parallel choice is Bandit)

There is no 3rd job advancement in Classic World yet.

Equipment

Assassins are restricted to Claws as their primary weapon, and require throwing stars equipped in the off-hand slot as consumable ammunition. Unlike Bandits, Assassins cannot equip a Shield: the off-hand is taken by stars. Armor is the thief-class line: light vests, leather hats, and accessories that grant LUK and a small amount of DEX.
