Overview

Assassin

Assassin

The shadow of death.

Existing in darkness, never entering the world of light, they were always feared by others. One day, reading King Tristan III's notice recruiting adventurers, they thought of it as an opportunity to clear their history full of darkness and sent an Assassin to join the group of adventurers. With the ability to secretly enter places and poison an enemy to get rid of them without a trace, they were worthy of being feared. People refused to open their minds to these Assassins, whose Guild location was even a secret. But if they find the true nature of these Assassins, loyal and trusting those once they are friends, anyone would want to befriend them without hesitation.

Description

Assassins (and their transcended Assassin Cross) are the only class able to equip a weapon in each hand and the exclusive users of Katar weapons. Assassins have a variety of damage dealing and poisoning skills. The Assassin are the only class who can walk slightly faster than any other class ingame as long as they leveled the proper skill (Thief's Increase Dodge). The Katar wielding Assassins also receive double the normal amount of critical hit rate. Therefore, whatever amount of critical rate Assassins have, it would always be doubled.

Changes

The following skills for this class have been altered. See the corresponding page to find which servers are affected:

• Left-Hand Mastery
• Katar Mastery
• Right-Hand Mastery
• Venom Splasher

5. After the quiz, enter the pub for the next test. Wait your turn if someone else is already in the test area. You'll then be sent to a room filled with Porings, Drops, Lunatics and Poporings. You must kill 6 monsters of the exact name given by the announcer in three minutes.

The name will usually be "Target Monster" or "Job Change Test Monster" but may vary in different versions of RO. The target monsters also always consist of 3 Porings, 1 Drops, 1 Lunatic and 1 Poporing. Killing monsters other than the targets or falling into traps results in failing and being teleported back to the entrance NPC. Killing all target monsters will automatically kill every other monster in the room and open a portal for the next test.

6. In the next area, you must run to the other side of a room filled with Mummies and Hydras. Stopping to attack monsters is not necessary. Getting to the sides of the room and going as quickly as possible is highly recommended to avoid getting mobbed. This part of the test can be made easier through good use of Hiding, and is trivial if the player has a Frilldora-carded garment.

7. Once you reach the NPC at the end of the room, all monsters will die and the you may proceed to the next room. Dying results in failing the test and you will be teleported to the entrance of the guild and must retake the test. If you die, it is not required to use healing items as the entrance NPC will heal the you back to full health.

8. You will then be sent to a series of rooms that look exactly the same. There is no significance to those other than walking through the portals until reaching a large room with invisible walls. You must traverse through the invisible maze and go beside the Assassin Master at the bottom left corner of the room.

There may be blocked paths but eventually you can reach the NPC through trial and error.

9. Talk to the NPC and he will talk and ask a few questions about the pride and honor in being an Assassin. Successful Thieves are then be rewarded with a Dagger or Katar-class Weapon (depending on Job Level) or a weapon of choice (Job 50), as well as a Necklace of Oblivion (Warning: Do not sell this last item).

10. You will be sent back to the entrance of the Assassin's Guild. Present the Necklace of Oblivion to the Entrance NPC to be changed into an Assassin.
