<p>DOn't get me wrong, I like the class. I like it alot. I'm an efficient killer and found that leveling up to 20 took me less than 3 days of raw work. Most of this I spent while I was still in the *trial* game, and had to make alts, as I could not advance her any.</p><p>The cycle of rotation I use is quick an easy:</p><p>I open with a stealth attack, move quickly into chain attack, then stun them, move around behind for a flank attack (that puts me back in stealth), Stealth attack again and finish them off with a chain attack again. Again, as I said, quick and efficient.</p><p>However, as I've been leveling, I've seen tons and tons of messages of Norrath is still as Soandso of <whatsthatguildsnameagain> recieves [Epic]. Its all well and fascinating, but, not once have I seen an assassin epic, in the whole 14 days I played prior to subbing.</p><p>Now, my concern is, are assassins desirable at high levels? I know I have alot of damage, but it just doesn't seem like I've seen alot of mdps classes getting epics. I've seen clerics and wizards, even dirges and bards, but no assassins. DO we fall off somewhere between level 20 and 80? Is there no real need for an assassin?</p><p>As I said, of all the classes I've played, I like the assassin for the high damage output. The wizard is a close second, and only reason is that she isn't nearly as fast as my 'sin at killing. Is there cause to be concerned?</p>
