by The Assassin is a class in Rogue Legacy 2 that I personally have to say I love (rogue-style characters have always been cool to me) as it can deal massive amounts of melee damage to enemies.
As is often the case with this type of class, it will be easy to die if we are not careful, although luckily we have a kind of stealth that will help us in that regard. But aside from that, we have a very fast hitting class that can deal tremendous damage with its crits, especially if you have a lot of Dexterity on your character.
The weapon that it comes with will also allow us not only to make a lot of crits, but it will also reduce the recharge time of talents and spells, so we can spam them quite often if we have enough mana; something that increases its damage even more.
HOW TO GET THE ASSASSIN IN ROGUE LEGACY 2
We can unlock the Assassin by upgrading the Stronghold “talent tree”. We have to acquire the improvement called « Guild of the Dark Arts» , with it we will obtain the Assassin class.
You can find this upgrade in the row to the far left of the fortress (3 rows to the left from the center line). It’s actually 2 ranks above the upgrade where we unlock Duelists.
? STATISTICS
- Low life.
- good mana.
- +10% super critical chance.
In terms of statistics , it must be said that his life is low, so it will be easy to die with this class as usual in most games. His mana, on the other hand, is fine, but it is far from what we can see in classes like the Mage or the Valkyrie , for example.
The best it has is Supercritical Chance . You should already know what a lifelong crit is, a super crit we could say is a crit within a crit, which translates into causing even more damage than we would do with a crit. When this happens our damage will have a purple background and it must be said that it is very noticeable in terms of damage when it jumps.
WEAPON: DOUBLE BLADES
The Double Blades is a very good weapon, when hitting we will deal 2 low damage blows and then a stronger one that will always be critical (and if you are lucky supercritical, which bursts a lot there), this in a succession of three very fast attacks. The best thing is that we can combo spam it to constantly attack in a lightning fast chain of hits to spell our enemies.
But that’s not all, as the last hit of the three also has the property of reducing the cooldown of our Talents and Spells so that we can also spam them more often. As you can see, we already have a tremendous capacity to do damage as standard.
Clarify that whether you attack on the ground, as if you do it in the air, or after an impulse, you will perform exactly the same attack.
TALENT: DARK
Very good Talent since it will allow us to enter a special stealth mode since it will immunize us from all damage for a while until we deal a blow; It is great to use it when you are in a hurry to be able to relocate or get to safety. Also, when attacking in this state we will apply vulnerability to the enemies we hit, which will cause them to receive more damage.
You will recharge the Talent by hitting enemies, something simple since we hit a lot, but don’t think about what you will always have available because no; you can use it from time to time.
MASTERY: DEXTERITY
Regarding the Mastery, we will obtain Dexterity , which since it is the attribute that benefits us the most as a class, it is greatly appreciated. What Dexterity will do is increase the damage caused by critical (and supercritical) hits. Since our most powerful attack (with the Double Blades) is precisely the third hit of the combo since this is always critical and it is also the one that causes the most damage in itself, it is very noticeable to increase the damage of critical hits.
